A year of posts

What we'd post for a Detroit business.

Detroit averages 45 inches of snow a year. July highs average about 84°F and January lows about 19°F. Here is what we'd post through the year. Climate source

  1. Spring Mar–May

    Cleanups, mulch, new patios and driveways. This is when Detroit books the year, so the posts start in February, before the phone rings.

  2. Summer Jun–Aug

    Finished patios, decks, roofs and coated garage floors. Before-and-afters from the job, posted the same week.

  3. Fall Sep–Nov

    Leaf cleanups, sealing, gutters and roof checks. Posts that fill next spring's schedule early.

  4. Winter Dec–Feb

    Snow removal reels, indoor jobs like basements and epoxy floors, reviews and team posts. You stay in the feed while others go quiet.
