March: Home Tasks for London Homeowners

March priorities

• ✓Spring clean — or book a professional deep clean before the busy spring season
• ✓Clear gutters and downpipes after winter — leaves, moss, and debris accumulate over winter months
• ✓First garden visit of the year — prune, clear dead growth, and prepare beds for planting
• ✓Check exterior woodwork for winter damage — rot sets in quickly if not caught early
• ✓Service the lawnmower before the first cut — dull blades tear grass and cause disease
• ✓Book external window clean — spring light shows every streak from winter grime
• ✓Start exterior painting if weather allows — temperatures above 10°C are needed for most paints
• ✓Order materials for spring projects — tiles, appliances, and bespoke items need lead time
