April Repairs Checklist: Stay Ahead of Spring Weather

Spring is the perfect time to give your home some much-needed attention. From indoor repairs to outdoor maintenance, preparing for spring weather doesn’t have to be overwhelming. With The Flex Seal Family of Products, these tasks can get easier. Here’s a practical April repairs checklist to help you protect your home and refresh your space this season.

3 Essential Indoor Repairs

1. Seal Around Bathtubs, Sinks, and Toilets

Bathrooms are a hotspot for water damage, especially if they aren’t properly sealed. Start by cleaning the affected areas and removing any old caulk. Then, apply Flex Caulk to create a waterproof, mildew-resistant barrier. It’s a quick and effective way to prevent water seepage and protect your bathroom surfaces.

2. Weatherproof Windowsills and Frames

Windows are often overlooked, but gaps in sills and frames can let in moisture and pests, leading to bigger issues down the road. Apply Flex Paste, Flex Caulk, or Flex Seal Spray around the seams to create a watertight seal that blocks out drafts and moisture.

3. Prep Walls for a Fresh Coat of Paint

Spring is the season for home restorations, and a new coat of paint can help brighten any room. Before painting, inspect your walls for cracks or holes. Use Flex Paste to fill in imperfections, creating a flawless surface for painting. This step not only improves the look of your walls but also helps prevent future wear and tear.

3 Outdoor Repairs to Protect Your Home

1. Restore and Protect Decks and Patios

After a long winter, outdoor spaces deserve some attention. Clean your deck or patio thoroughly, then apply Flex Seal Liquid to shield it from rain, UV rays, and wear. Its durable, self-leveling finish not only protects but also enhances the look of wood and other surfaces.

2. Repair Garden Structures

From fences to trellises and sheds, outdoor structures often bear the brunt of harsh winters. Check for damage, tighten loose parts, and use Flex Glue for quick fixes. Finish with a coat of Flex Seal Spray to protect these structures from moisture and weathering.

3. Check Roof Flashing and Gutters

Gutters and roof flashing are critical for directing water away from your home, but they can crack or clog over time. Inspect these areas carefully and use Flex Seal Spray, Flex Tape, or Flex Seal Liquid to seal any leaks or weak spots. A proper seal ensures that rainwater flows where it should, protecting your roof and foundation.

With these repairs and tasks checked off your list, you’ll be ready to take on this season with confidence. Whether it’s sealing a window leak or protecting your deck from rain, The Flex Seal Family of Products can help you refresh your home.
