"Bringing people and dreams together one home at a time."
November
Greetings!

Winter is coming in a hurry and winterizing your home is no fun when it's freezing out. So now is the time to do a systematic review of your home's critical structural and mechanical systems. Your home maintenance tools and equipment are also vulnerable pieces that need to be inspected. Being proactive can help lower your energy bills and increase the efficiency and lifespan of your home and other tools and components. Then, you can just sit back and enjoy the winter in cozy comfort.

Hope you have a very Happy Thanksgiving.

Sincerely,

Susie and Nichola
