A new way to multitask!

Fifty Point loves the rain!

Just the tip Friday!

Slope is very important with lot grading. Always ensure water is moving away from the foundation. Please make sure to hire a company that has the lot grading going away from the home when installing a driveway.

Merry Christmas and happy holidays!

From my family to yours, have a very safe and relaxing time with loved ones.

Just the tip Friday!

Handrails and guardrails protect people. They avoid dangerous falls. When a handrail is loose, or in this case disconnected, the home owner needs to repair it before an accident happens!

A very easy fix but one that's gotta get done!

We have a lovely deck here, but we're missing some handrails. I love the slide though! My own kids would have loved this. But, safety is important! Get at least one side with a handrail.

What a beautiful day to use the drone!

A beautiful deck area with some minor things noted so the new home owners can take care of everyone on their property.

Safety is always a concern and educating my clients about safety items is at the top of my list.

Just the tip Friday!

This is so simple but very important. Always make sure the dryer vent is clear from lint and debris. Overtime, this can cause a fire.

Exterior electrical no no!

This was a mess. Please hire a professional when you want electrical going to the shed.

Finding some possible mould in a basement near the waste lines is never a good sign. There will need to some invasive investigations here to determine the leak location and its time to get rid of the damaged drywall.

A leaky toilet is an issue I find very often. If the ceiling is unfinished and you have a clear view of the piping material, whenever you're passing by take a quick look to ensure there are no leaks.

Structure is a big deal. If you ever notice something sinking, get a professional to take a look.

Gas appliances are a great feature to a home. Cleaning and staging is amazing for selling a home. Always make sure when you clean around and behind any gas appliance that you don't pull it out too far and it pulls and places stress on the gas connection.

Attics need to be checked on about 2 or 3 times a year. This attic has a lot of wear and tear and many many issues!

Proper water management is very important. At this home, they have extended the downspouts. Great! But, not far enough! It still stops right at the foundation and then the lot grading is not taking the water away.

Ever play the game drip, drip, drop as a child??

Here is an area that I don't like to see something dripping.

Time for a plumber to evaluate this leak.

Proper structure to a building is kind of a big deal! Get your home inspected.
