DAYLIGHT SAVING TIMES ENDS

I always forget when time is suppose to change; so just image how excited I was when I remembered, early at that. I  just wanted to reach out to you in Columbia SC to remind you that Sunday, November 6, Daylight Saving Time ends. Don’t forget to roll back that clock an hour on Saturday night or Sunday morning.

I also like to use the time change to remind me to perform some basic home maintenance tasks. Perhaps this list will help you as well:

• Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Detectors: Test batteries and replace.
• Interior Caulking: Inspect caulking around tubs, showers, and sinks; replace any if it is deteriorating.
• HVAC: Change filters, if required.
• Toilet: Check for leaks and water run-on.
• Garbage Disposal: Tighten drain connections and fasteners.
• Dryer: Vacuum lint from ducts and surrounding areas.
• Washer: Clean water inlet filters; check hoses and replace them if they are leaking.
• Wiring: Check for frayed cords and wires; repair or replace them as needed.
• Range/Stove Hood: Wash fan blades and housing.

A little regular maintenance can save thousands down the road when you decide to list your home. Hope you’re well, and enjoy that “extra hour” of sleep!
