Deck the Halls: Your Ultimate Christmas Home Prep Checklist

Welcome the festive season in style (and safety) with our essential Christmas home prep checklist, designed to make your celebrations merry, bright and hassle-free.

Deck the Halls: Your Ultimate Christmas Home Prep Checklist
Let’s start with the boring bits
1)    Safety first: Test smoke alarms – this is important as you may be using many more electrical items than usual, and candles often feature in setting a festive mood.
 
2)    Festive clean-up: Get cracking with a thorough home clean, focusing on communal areas like the living room, kitchen, toilet and bathroom.
 
3)    Heating check: Ensure your heating system is functioning efficiently. Bleed radiators and set timers for a consistently cosy home over the Christmas break and beyond.
 
4)    Emergency contacts: Keep a list of emergency contacts, such as plumbers and electricians, handy for any unforeseen home issues.

Getting ready for the party
5)  Guest room ready: Prepare rooms with fresh bedding and extra towels. Add a small festive touch to make guests feel welcome.
6)  Packing the pantry: Load up on holiday essentials, including baking supplies, snacks and traditional meal ingredients. (As if we had to remind you to do that.)

7)  Outdoor magic: Decorate your home’s exterior. A welcoming wreath, window lights or a simple display enhances the festive spirit.

8)  Relax and enjoy: After all that preparation, relax and enjoy the holiday atmosphere. Remember, it’s about family, fun and creating magical memories.

All of us at Grey & Co wish you a very Merry Christmas.

Meet Abigail

  Hello, my name is Abigail, and I am the Grey in Grey & Co. I started working here in 2002 as a Junior Negotiator and have worked my way up the ranks since then. I took over running the company in 2014 and have been enjoying the roller coaster that is leadership ever since.   During my 20 plus years at Grey & Co I have dealt with the sale of over £100,000,000 worth of property and overseen the management of assets worth £250,000,000 for clients around the world.   I also had the pleasure of working with my father, the founder of Grey & Co, for 15 years before he sadly passed away and from him, I learnt the work hard ethic and our values today are still the ones that he founded the company on all those years ago.   Be Remarkable, Be Passionate, Be Humble and Be Better.   As a community centric boutique family agency, you couldn’t find a better partner to take with you on your property journey.
