Spring Home Checklist for Long Island Homeowners

Long Island's freeze-thaw cycle is brutal on caulk, grout, decks, and gutters. Knock these out in March or April.

Exterior

  • Clean gutters and check downspout extensions
  • Recaulk exterior windows and trim
  • Pressure wash siding and walkways
  • Inspect deck boards and railings
  • Touch up exterior paint flagging or peeling

Interior

  • Recaulk tubs, showers, and backsplashes
  • Tighten loose door hinges
  • Test smoke and CO alarms
  • Patch wall scuffs and nail holes

Plumbing & Electrical

  • Cycle every shut-off valve open/closed
  • Test all GFCI outlets
