Get Your Home Ready for Summer with The Handy MainLine Man

Summer is just around the corner, and now is the perfect time to prepare your home for the warmer months ahead. Here are some essential handyman tips to make sure your home is summer-ready!

1. Inspect & Repair Your Deck

Winter weather can take a toll on decks. Check for loose boards, nails, or signs of rot. A fresh coat of stain or sealant will help protect it from summer sun and rain.

2. Clean & Maintain Your AC Unit

A well-functioning air conditioner is key to staying cool. Clean the filters, check for leaks, and ensure vents are clear to maximize efficiency.

3. Power Wash Outdoor Surfaces

Give your home’s exterior, sidewalks, and patio a fresh look with a good pressure washing. This removes dirt, mold, and grime that built up over the seasons.

4. Check Window & Door Seals

Keep the cool air in and the hot air out by inspecting and replacing any worn weather stripping around windows and doors.

5. Prepare Your Outdoor Living Space

Get your patio, furniture, and grill in top shape for summer gatherings. Tighten screws, clean cushions, and make sure everything is ready for backyard fun.

6. Tackle Small Repairs Now

From fixing a leaky faucet to repairing a broken fence, taking care of minor issues now prevents bigger problems later.
