Spring is here, and it’s time to ready, set, grow!
Preparing a property for summer can be overwhelming, but ensuring a welcoming and well-maintained environment for your customers, clients, employees, and neighborhood starts with the spring cleanup. We're here to help with three easy steps to prepare your property for the season.
Ready: Exterior Cleanup
Begin by giving your property’s exterior a thorough cleaning. Clear away any debris from walkways, parking lots, and outdoor spaces, including leaves, branches, and trash. Power wash the building’s exterior, windows, and sidewalks to eliminate the dirt and grime that have built up over the winter months.
In the Northwest spring, moss tends to accumulate on walkways, siding, and gutters, which also need to be cleaned. Not only is power washing incredibly satisfying, but it also refreshes the appearance of your property instantly, creating a positive first impression.
Set: Landscaping Refresh
Enhance your commercial property’s curb appeal by rejuvenating your landscaping. Trim overgrown shrubs and trees, remove dead plants and branches, and clear out weeds. Mulch flower beds to suppress weed growth and give them a neat, polished look.
Spring is also the time to fertilize your lawns and flower beds. We recommend using a slow-release fertilizer rich in nitrogen to promote new growth. This is the season for the first mowing as well—be sure to cut your lawn no shorter than 3.5 inches to ensure thick, healthy turf.
Grow: Planting and Irrigation
Spring is ideal for planting most perennials, trees, and vibrant seasonal flowers to add splashes of color. It’s also a great time to remove unwanted plants and shrubs while the ground is still soft, allowing new roots to establish. Consider checking your irrigation and drip-line systems, testing for leaks, breaks, and damaged sprinkler heads. Upgrading old or leaky heads to efficient sprinklers and nozzles can save both water and money. You might also consider updating timers to the latest weather-based technology, which can provide additional water savings and potential rebates.
