Even though the holiday season is right around the corner, it’s not too late to hire a pro to help you hang lights, get your home prepped for any holiday gatherings, or help in case of any emergency appliance repairs. Here are 4 simple ways how HomeStars can help you get ready for the holidays.
Exterior Lighting
If you haven’t had the chance to hang lights outside your home, it’s not too late! Head to HomeStars.com to get connected with a pro to get the lights up before the holidays! Don’t worry about it being too late, as lights look great all winter (and even all year round). If you are hanging your lights yourself, be sure to use proper safety cautions, such as using a spotter while you’re on the ladder and paying attention to the surface on which you are working. It can be fun to DIY this project, but only within the limits – HomeStars has verified pros to help you get this task done safely.
Home Cleaning
Now that the exterior of your home is looking great it’s time to focus on the interior. Especially if you’re hosting any celebrations, you want your home to be tidy. Reorganizing cupboards, rearranging any furniture, refreshing your fireplace, and doing a deep clean will have your home ready for any guests. Here are rooms to be cleaned before and after the holidays. Professional cleaners can also help out – if you’re interested in a pro click here.
Additionally, the end of the year is the perfect time to clean out your closet, playroom, and kitchen to get rid of anything that is no longer needed or used. Rather than throwing it all away, if it is still in good condition you can consider donating it to a family in need.
Minor Repairs
If you notice any minor touch-ups while cleaning, this can include paint touch-ups and cabinets or drawers that need repairing, hire a handyman to fix it today. Minor repairs can be completed before the holidays, leaving you worry-free about anyone noticing or the issue progressing. Plus, getting these jobs done now is one less thing you have to worry about heading into the new year!
Appliance Repair
