Liste de vérification du nettoyage printanier à l’extérieur : comment préparer votre cour arrière pour le printemps
Écarte-toi, Bonhomme Hiver, c’est officiellement le printemps. L’extérieur de votre maison aurait-il besoin d’être rafraîchi avant que vous ne soyez officiellement prêt à profiter du soleil? En cette saison de nettoyage printanier, assurez-vous de montrer un peu d’amour à l’intérieur et à l’extérieur de votre maison.
Lucky for you, we put together an easy-to-read outdoor spring cleaning infographic. Get your pen ready! You'll be checking things off the list in no time. Here's a peek of what's in store.
Porch & Patio Spring Cleaning Checklist
Rid the signs of winter by sweeping away debris and cobwebs from your backyard porch and patio. Don't underestimate the power of rinsing your walkway and dusting off outdoor furniture-spring cleaning outside can help your home's exterior be a family favorite hangout spot.
Sweep away debris and cobwebs from ceilings, walls and floors
Rinse off concrete walkways and decking with a garden hose or power washer
Remove outdoor furniture from winter storage and thoroughly wash to remove dust and dirt
Clean or replace outdoor furnishings (cushions, umbrellas, etc.); use a solution of three parts water to one part white vinegar to remove light mold or mildew stains
Spring Cleaning Siding Checklist
Given the ideal weather, spring is the perfect time to take inventory of your home's siding. We recommend cleaning LP® SmartSide® Trim & Siding annually to remove the natural buildup of dirt and grime to prevent mildew and mold damage. This way, you can keep one of the most durable siding solutions available looking beautiful. Learn more about cleaning your siding from the experts at LP.
Cleaning mildew off siding is simple
Wash away built-up residue using mild detergent and water
Use a sponge, soft brush or cloth to scrub the surface, rinsing with a garden hose
Touch up chips and small paint imperfections, applying paint with a cotton swab

Gutters & Downspouts Checklist for Spring Cleaning
Stay ahead of spring showers by cleaning out built-up leaves and debris from your gutters. Also, flush gutters and downspouts with a garden hose to identify and fix potential leaks.
Use a ladder to remove built-up leaves and debris from gutters
When cleaning, place debris on a tarp to avoid dirtying up the lawn
Identify potential leaks by flushing gutters and downspouts with a garden hose
Garden & Landscape Spring Backyard Ideas Checklist
This spring, make your backyard area a place you want to spend time. Make sure the aesthetic is just right by removing weeds, trimming greenery, mulching your garden beds, and planting flowers for a colorful springtime bloom.
Remove weeds and dead foliage with a shovel or hoe
Trim overgrown trees and shrubs and remove dead or unruly branches
Mulch garden beds to prepare for spring bloom
Take inventory of plants and flowers and plan for any new additions
Spring Cleaning Additions Checklist
Sometimes part of spring cleaning includes something brand new for your space! Adding a fence to your backyard can be a great addition to your landscape while also providing some extra privacy, and a shed can provide extra storage for tools you want to keep out of sight.
Explore fencing options that best fit your needs; LP Elements® Performance Fencing, for example, offers beautiful, durable fencing that stands up to weather and everyday impacts, like baseballs
Take inventory of storage items; use the Shed Size Estimator to see what you'd need to be able to store items such as tools, winter décor and more
Miscellaneous Outdoor Spring Cleaning Checklist
Windows are a focal point of your home's exterior. Clean them to remove wintertime residue and replace torn screens. Also look at replacing light fixtures and refilling or changing out your grill's propane tank to get your backyard ready for springtime cookouts.
Rinse away dirt and residue from windows and shutters
Replace torn window screens
Wash exterior lighting and replace burned-out bulbs
Get your grill ready by cleaning and refilling your propane tank as needed
Check for cracks or leaks in your garden hose, and neatly organize by storing on a hose reel
You're officially ready to get started! Take this list, check it twice, and your backyard will be in prime condition to enjoy this spring and beyond.
