Now you See it, Now You Don't...

I could see from the ground that part of the stone ledge above the garage was loose. When I got on the ladder to check it out, I merely touched it and it completely came off in my hand. From that height, this could have seriously injured someone (especially a child) if it had fallen on their head. Whether you’re buying, selling, or a homeowner who hasn’t had an inspection since you bought your home, this is the kind of stuff that I find. It is SO WORTH the small investment.

these cracks were made for widening... and that's just what they'll do

Did you know that now - when temperatures stay in the mid 80s during the day and don't drop below 60 at night - is the perfect time to seal your driveways and walkways? They should be sealed every three years or so, otherwise cracks like in this picture will widen in the winter. The cracks fill with water and continually freeze and thaw, freeze and thaw, until more than just sealing will be needed to make repairs. And those repairs can get VERY costly.  So stay ahead of the game and get your driveway sealed before the fall!
