Cleaning Outdoor Living Areas

Now that warmer weather has finally set in, it is time to get outside and enjoy it. During the summer patios, porches, and decks transform into outdoor living and dining rooms.

Getting them cleaned up helps outdoor spaces to be even more inviting and comfortable. The following is a brief checklist of areas that need thorough cleaning:

Beginning of Season:

- Patio pavers, porch or deck structure.

- Cushions that are left on the furniture over the winter. Cushions that have been stored may just need a shake to get out any insects.

- Wicker furniture tends to collect dust, dirt, and pollen in the intricately woven parts. You may want to give it a scrub with light detergent and warm water.

- Wooden pieces are more prone to collecting mold spores in addition to pollen and dirt.

- Outdoor umbrellas - if left out over winter.

- Light Fixtures

- Porch screens and sliding glass door screens

- Unused planters (remove dirt and clean to prevent insect habitation)

This is also a good time to conduct an inspection:

Check wooden structures for any insect activity - bee, wasp or yellow jacket hives, termites

Make sure steps are in good repair and railings are tight.

Check patio pavers to make sure they are secure and stable.

Regular upkeep will help outdoor spaces be ready at any giving time. Here are the areas to care for regularly:

Weekly Maintenance:

Sweep patio, porch or deck flooring.

Use a brush with a handle to go over porch or deck walls and furniture.

Use window cleaner for sliding glass doors and glass table tops.
