As the weather warms up and the sun stays out longer, send your children out to play and tackle a few odd jobs to create a healthier home this spring.
A good spring cleaning begins with traditional cleaning like mopping, vacuuming, dusting, cleaning the kitchen and the bathroom, etc. In addition to the traditional cleaning, there are a few things in your home that may need a little more attention. ServiceMaster Dallas, a leading provider of carpet and upholstery cleaning, recommends deep cleaning the following:
Ever heard the term "emergency fund"? It is a savings fund set aside specifically for emergency use. No, not that new china cabinet you just have to get, but for true emergencies related to unexpected medical, automobile or household emergencies like fire or water damage. As a student of Dave Ramsey myself, I was reminded of the importance of having an emergency fund today while being involved in an unfortunate automobile accident. Thank goodness for insurance! However, I still have to pay out of pocket for the cost of my deductible, thus dipping into the emergency fund.
Brr, it's cold out there in North Texas! I took my kids to school this morning and bundled them up like the little kid in the movie The Christmas Story. Not only us, but all the parents and kids shuffled in and out with their hats, scarfs and heaviest coats to stay warm. It's easy to remember to bundle up our loved ones, but what about protecting your home or business from the freezing temperatures? Did you know that freezing and thawing of pipes is one of the leading causes of water damage this time of year? Don't let your home or business become a casualty of winter weather. Take some advice from our resident drying expert and Operations Manager, Kendall Moore. With a few simple steps, you can help protect your property from water damage due to frozen pipes.
"There's Always Something." "If it's not one thing, it's another." If you're a homeowner I'm sure you've uttered those words or something like theat many times, as I have just this week when my refigerator went out. Let's face it, like it or not, sometimes bad things happen to good homes. Often they seem to happen at the worst times too (like when you're already running late to get the kids to school, get to work, etc.) So, what are you supposed to do when that freezer line busts and sends water all over your kitchen and dining room? Or when that hot water heater goes out, or the kids "accidentally" leave the water running and the bathtub overflows?
ServiceMaster of Greater Dallas & North Texas is proud to embark on a new adventure, the launch of our 1st Annual Toys For Tots Toy Drive, which will run from October 26 to December 2, 2009. It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas around our office! Our marketing team has been very busy preparing and distributing toy collection boxes to nearly 30 local insurance agencies that have graciously agreed to participate in our toy drive. Each year for the last sixty years, the Toys For Tots program, operated by the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve, serves to deliver a message of hope to millions of less fortunate youngsters across the United States through the gift of shiny new toys at Christmastime. The Toys For Tots Program is a testament to the positive impact that can be made in a local community through the willingness of citizens and businesses to band together for a common goal.
