Screens and windows
Pull screens out of storage and check for tears before bug season. Look for failed caulk around window frames.
Decks, fences and gates
Check for boards that heaved or softened, railings that loosened and gates that sag after freeze-thaw cycles.
Inside
- Look for new drywall cracks from settling
- Test doors that stuck over winter
- Check tub and sink caulk for mildew
