The Tri-Cities of Tennessee, Johnson City, Kingsport, and Bristol, make up a beautiful part of the South. As spring is about to be sprung upon us, the natural beauty of our area is full of frequent precipitation, and humidity, which can take a toll on our homes.
Keeping up with cleaning your outdoor surfaces can be challenging, and each type of surface needs specialized cleaning. There are several ways to clean and prevent issues like mold and mildew from spreading, and two of those ways are Power Washing and Soft Washing.
The Tri-Cities area of East Tennessee is a wonderful place to own a home. It is an area home to all four seasons, with hot subtropical summers and contrasting cold, wet winters.
With the beautiful Doe River and Watauga River running through East Tennessee, there is tons of access to great fly fishing, with brown trout, rainbow, and the occasional brook trout to boot. Living in Elizabethton, Johnson City, Kingsport, and the rest of the region is an absolute outdoor lover's dream.
However, because of the drastic contrast between seasons, you may find yourself looking at your property, wondering what to do about the buildup along your sidewalks from salt and build-up of grime or mildew. Maybe it's time to wash down your house to bring it back to its original glory.
East Tennessee is an incredible place to be a homeowner. Full of incredible beauty and history, towns such as Elizabethton, Johnson City, and Kingsport are all places to be proud of calling home. With nearby Watauga River, Holston Mountain, and the Doe River, there are plenty of things to do outdoors.
However, wintertime is on the way, and before you know it, cold, wet, East Tennessee weather will be wreaking havoc on your beautiful landscaping. Taking care of your landscaping in winter is not nearly as demanding as the warmer seasons, but when done right, solid winter landscaping can take your property’s curb appeal to eleven.
One of the factors that attract people to east Tennessee is the weather. During the spring and fall, comfortable temperatures combined with beautiful colors beckon people to explore the great outdoors. Summers are warm but often cooler than lower elevation parts of our state. We get enough rain to feed gardens and farms and enough sun to bring plenty of tourists to the Tri-Cities.
For the vast majority of the year, the weather is amazing. Even during winter, snow-lovers usually get several opportunities to watch the hills and mountains become a winter wonderland. However, rain, sleet, and snow also contribute to the collection of dirt and debris on our home’s outdoor surfaces.
