The Atlanta Home Maintenance Calendar: Humidity, Canopy, and Storm Lines

Spring: Pollen and Inspection

After the yellow haze passes: wash exteriors, change filters early and often, service the AC before the humidity arrives, and walk the roof line after spring's first storm cells. Check crawlspace vents and moisture as the ground warms.

Summer: Humidity Management

Condensate lines, dehumidifier checks in basements and crawlspaces, mold vigilance in closed rooms, and gutter checks after gully-washer thunderstorms. Watch the big trees — summer cells drop limbs.

Fall: The Leaf Campaign

Gutters under canopy need cleaning twice in fall, downspouts tested, and roofs cleared of debris dams. Service heat before the first frost week, seal drafts in older intown stock.

Winter: The Mild-With-Exceptions Season

Occasional hard freezes find uninsulated crawlspace pipes — wrap them now. Winter is also Atlanta's arborist season: prune and assess the canopy while it sleeps.
