Spring Cleaning & De-Winterizing Your Hudson Valley Home

Spring in the Hudson Valley brings longer days, warmer air, and the perfect opportunity to reset your home after a long winter. Beyond traditional spring cleaning, de-winterizing ensures your property is safe, efficient, and ready for the months ahead.

Start with Air and Water Systems

Replace HVAC filters, inspect vents, and test air conditioning systems before peak usage begins. Check outdoor faucets, irrigation lines, and hose bibs for leaks caused by frozen pipes.

Exterior Wake-Up Call

Power washing siding, walkways, and decks helps remove winter grime while revealing potential issues like loose boards or deteriorating paint. This is also an ideal time to inspect fencing, sheds, and outdoor structures.

Declutter and Deep Clean

Spring cleaning isn’t just cosmetic — clearing clutter improves airflow, reduces allergens, and helps homeowners notice maintenance needs that may have been hidden during winter.

A Fresh Start for the Season Ahead

De-winterizing your home sets the tone for a smooth, stress-free spring. At MPM, we view seasonal maintenance as a key part of protecting long-term property value.
