Mingo’s Warm Weather Prep Checklist!
Hey there, sunshine! It’s your pal Mingo, and I’m here to help you get your nest ready for the warmer months. Whether you’re prepping for backyard BBQs or just trying to keep your home feeling fresh, now’s the time to shake off the winter cobwebs (literally and figuratively). Here’s my go-to checklist to help you soar into spring and summer with ease:
Mingo’s Warm Weather Prep Checklist:
Wash windows & screens – Let that sunshine in!
Check & service your HVAC – Don’t wait for the first heatwave to find out it’s not working.
Clean gutters & downspouts – Keep the rain flowing where it should, not pouring over the edge like it’s got somewhere better to be.
Power wash decks, patios, and siding – Goodbye grime!
Freshen up the landscaping – Add mulch, trim hedges, and plant something pretty.
Check smoke detectors & replace batteries – Safety first, always.
Inspect for pests – Ants and wasps love this weather too.
Test outdoor faucets & hoses – You’ll need these for summer play (and watering those plants!).
Inspect doors & windows for drafts or damage – Keep the cool in and bugs out.
Clean out the freezer & stock it with popsicles – Trust me on this one.
Now’s a great time to prep your home—and if you’re thinking about buying or selling, it’s a perfect season for that too! Want help figuring out where to start? I know a flamingo (and a real estate team) who can help. 😉
Fluff those feathers, check off that list, and let’s make this your best summer yet!
Featherfully yours,
Mingo 🦩
