Spring is the perfect time to give your home a fresh start. Whether you’re preparing to list your home for sale or simply want to enjoy a cleaner, calmer space, these spring cleaning tips will help you reset and reorganize with purpose.
At SERHANT., we know that small upgrades can lead to big results—especially in today’s market. Below are five expert-approved tips to help you transform your space this season.
1. Declutter to Create Space and Clarity
Start with a clean slate by removing items you no longer use. Clutter makes homes feel smaller and less inviting—two things buyers and renters will notice right away.
Decluttering checklist:
- Unused kitchen gadgets and expired pantry items
- Outdated cosmetics and bathroom products
- Unworn seasonal clothing
- Mail, papers, and “junk drawer” overflow
2. Deep Clean High-Traffic Zones
Once the clutter’s gone, focus on the areas that make the biggest impact:
- Kitchen: Clean appliances, degrease backsplash, sanitize handles
- Bathroom: Scrub tile grout, disinfect sinks, wash shower curtains
- Windows: Wash inside and out to brighten the entire space
- Floors: Vacuum, mop, or deep-clean rugs for a polished finish
3. Refresh Your Décor with Light, Seasonal Touches
Swap out heavy winter accessories for lighter textures and fresh colors to match the season:
- Switch to linen or cotton throws
- Add greenery or fresh-cut flowers.
- Replace dark rugs with neutral or pastel alternatives.
- Refresh gallery walls with brighter art or prints.
4. Boost Curb Appeal with a Simple Outdoor Refresh
Whether you have a front stoop in Hoboken or a backyard in Jersey City, now’s the time to polish your outdoor space:
- Power wash patios, entryways, or walkways
- Add low-maintenance planters or window boxes.
- Repaint your front door or replace hardware.
- Clean outdoor furniture and railings
5. Maintain Your Clean Home with Weekly Routines
Spring cleaning doesn’t have to be a once-a-year project. Create a weekly or monthly maintenance plan to keep things fresh and manageable:
- 30-minute Sunday reset (laundry, surfaces, floors)
- Monthly fridge and pantry purge
- Quarterly window and baseboard refresh
- Seasonal décor swaps and storage reshuffles
