Tips from the Community Standards Department: Regular maintenance of your home’s exterior is key to keeping it looking its best, especially in a coastal area like Sea Pines where environmental factors can promote the growth of mold, mildew, and algae. In addition to inspecting the exterior surfaces, it’s important to keep gutters clean, trim back overgrown vegetation, and ensure proper ventilation to prevent moisture buildup. By staying proactive with maintenance on your home exterior, you can protect your investment and enjoy a beautiful, well-maintained property for years to come.
