Is Your Home Summer-Ready? Summer Property Maintenance Tips for June from B&B Services Ltd

Summer is just around the corner, and while we’re all looking forward to BBQs, garden days, and brighter evenings, your home could probably use a little attention before the heat sets in.

At B & B Services Ltd, we know that a few simple maintenance checks in June can help prevent bigger issues later—and make your home a more comfortable, energy-efficient place all summer long.

Here’s your essential summer property maintenance prep checklist:

1. Check Ventilation & Airflow

As the temperature rises, good ventilation becomes key—especially in bathrooms and kitchens. Ensure extractor fans are working properly and consider adding or upgrading ventilation in rooms that get hot or humid.

Bonus Tip: Clean fan filters and vents to help improve airflow and reduce dampness or mould growth.

2. Boiler Off-Season Servicing

It might seem odd to service your boiler in summer, but this is actually the best time to do it. Demand is lower, meaning quicker appointments—and it ensures your system is ready when the chill returns.

Avoid the autumn rush and book your boiler service now to save time, money, and future stress.

3. Seal Windows & Doors

Warm weather can highlight gaps around windows and doors where cool air escapes—or where bugs sneak in! Resealing or replacing worn seals can improve insulation, cut energy bills, and keep your home more comfortable.

4. Install or Check Garden Taps

If you haven’t already, a garden tap is a summer essential for watering, washing down patios, or filling the paddling pool. We can install a weather-resistant, professionally fitted outdoor tap in no time.

Already have one? Check for drips or leaks and ensure it's properly insulated to prevent future frost damage.

5. Inspect External Paintwork & Woodwork

The drier weather is perfect for touching up peeling paint, restoring wooden fascias, or repainting tired fences. Not only does this improve kerb appeal, but it also protects your property from future weather damage.

6. Check Your Outdoor Power Supply

Thinking of adding lights, a hot tub, or outdoor kitchen? Now’s a good time to have an electrician check your external power supply or safely install new sockets.
