Ask a Service Provider — Exterior Home Maintenance

Every week on Instagram we ask if you have any questions for our service providers! Last week we asked you what questions you had about exterior home maintenance.
Q: When should I have my windows cleaned?
Service Provider Answer: Early fall is best! Be sure to book now though, window cleaning is a popular service this time of year and our schedules get booked up fast. Having clean windows is not only important to the health of your windows, frames, and sills — but it will help on energy bills!
Q: If I have exposed wood, do I need to paint the entire exterior of my house?
Service Provider Answer: You don’t have to paint the entire exterior, but you definitely need to pain the exposed sections. It’s also important to make sure you don't have wood rot under those exposed sections.
Q: Is it true that leaves are good for your yard?
Service Provider Answer: It is best for the lawn to continue to mow and mulch leaves on a weekly basis. This allows the most nutrients to return back to the soil and helps to hold moisture as we enter the dry season. You want to remove leaves when there are so many that they block sunlight to the grass.
