Spring Tips for Properties

As spring approaches, we wanted to send over some practical tips for preparing your commercial property for the season’s unique weather challenges. Prioritizing preventive measures can help maintain the integrity and value of your property as we transition seasons.

  1. Roof inspection: Loose, missing, or damaged shingles can become potential leak entry points during heavy spring downpours. Even newer properties aren’t exempt from these vulnerabilities, so schedule a roof inspection early in the season.
  2. Siding examination: Winter weather can weaken property siding. So, scan your property for damage caused by ice, hail, or strong winds. These issues can lead to structural damage and escalating maintenance costs over time if overlooked.
  3. Gutter maintenance: While it’s often associated with fall, a thorough gutter cleaning after winter is crucial to ensuring efficient water routing during spring rainfalls. Debris build-up can cause clogs, leading to potential water damage.
  4. HVAC system inspection: A complete HVAC cleaning and inspection can remove the dust and grime that may block the system, reducing its efficiency. A properly functioning HVAC system not only means cost savings but also improves indoor air quality for those in the building.
  5. Pest control: Pests might have sought shelter in your property during the winter. A thorough pest inspection will ensure a critter-free environment, contributing to your property’s health and safety standards.
  6. Parking lot maintenance: Winter weather can be especially tough on parking lots, causing cracks, potholes, and line erasures. Professional cleaning, repair, and repainting can benefit the safety of those who park in the lot and enhance your property’s aesthetic appeal.
  7. Exterior lighting assessment: Review the exterior lighting around your property, including parking lots. Adequate lighting is crucial for safety and security as it deters potential criminal activities and reduces the risk of accidents.
  8. Insurance overview: Although often overlooked, spring is an ideal time to review your property insurance policy. Keep it up-to-date with any changes your property may have experienced due to the winter storms.

Remember, maintenance is a small investment that can save you considerable repair costs. As always, don’t hesitate to reach out should you have any questions or needs as the spring season unfolds.
