Spring Ahead with GB…At Your Service!

By: Michelle Lennick & Melissa Bauco

Spring Maintenance

Birds chirping, sun shining, flowers blooming, warm weather, and…..your To Do List? Spring is here, so is the cleanup that comes along with it. It’s the same for you every year; between all of your family’s spring activities, where are you ever going to find the time to get everything done around your house? This year, stop worrying about it and let GB…At Your Service! take care of all your spring cleaning needs.

We know that house work makes those highly anticipated weekends not so fun. It’s natural that you’d rather spend your free time watching your son’s baseball game or your daughter’s lacrosse game, so why not let us do your dirty work? We can organize your garage, power-wash your deck, wash your windows, mulch your outdoor beds, or plant flowers to breathe new life into your yard after the dismal winter. We also offer a variety of handyman services, so call us for details. Get ahead of your neighbors. Spend more time barbequing while they struggle to finish fertilizing their grass as dusk sets in. Ask us for help.

Relax at the Beach

Fast forward a little and think ahead to the summer, and the beach house you’ve been dreaming of all winter. Now we can help you there, too! As much of Delaware can’t wait to abandon their current routine and set up shop at the beach for the summer, we are pleased to announce the opening of GB…At Your Service’s second location. 626 Rehoboth Avenue is prepared to be your headquarters for all of your beach home preparation and needs. Allow us to restock your refrigerator and cabinets with all of your favorite food and beverages, before you even arrive! We can coordinate linen for your rental house, or reopen and clean your house in preparation for your visit. Give us a call at 302-226-2008 and we’ll purchase all of your beach chairs and umbrellas so they’re ready for you when you decide it’s time to make your first trip to the beach. Let us know what we can do to make your time at the beach more enjoyable.

After a late season bout of bad weather, there’s no denying it. Spring has arrived, and a whole new to-do list has crept into your head. Clear your mind, and leave the rest to us.
