Raleigh Garage Door: Get Ready for Summer!
Spring is finally starting to warm up and it won’t be long until the summer heat makes an appearance as well. With cool air still lingering, it’s important to take advantage of it while you can. Spring cleaning this time of year is perfect and organizing your garage now is great too!
There are probably several summer items in your garage that you’ll be using soon so go ahead and break them out and get your garage cleaned and organized!
The cleanup and organization of your garage might be a time consuming job, considering the mess winter activities have left behind. There are probably leaves, mud, and other debris just waiting to be swept away. There may be sleds, tire chains, and other cold weather must haves littering your space as well.
The first step to cleaning and organizing your garage is the cleanout process. Be sure there’s nothing blocking your Raleigh garage door or garage door opener. Get rid of anything you don’t need and make sure the things you keep have a place, off the floor, away from your garage doors.
Sports equipment such as skis, ice skates, and hockey equipment can be cleaned up and stowed. Also, the tools and equipment you use to clear the driveway and sidewalks of snow need to be cleaned up and stowed. Snow shovels should be washed clean, have a light coating of oil applied, and hung up. If you own a snow blower, this is a good time to do periodic maintenance on it and store it.
Next, take a look at the garage floor. Chances are, it needs a serious deep cleaning from all the sand, salt, and mud. Sweep and mop the floor, then check to see if it needs to be resealed before moving on.
