Without kickout flashing to divert rainwater away from the house and into the gutter, this is what can happen to your bricks or siding. This roofing recommendation is an easy and cheap way to maintain your home.

Rotting wood can easily go unnoticed, unless you specifically look for it in your home. Unfortunately, wood rot can spread, making it especially dangerous to your home’s wooden building materials. Sometimes you can clearly see rotten wood, as you can in this picture of a roof from a recent inspection. But other times it's not as clear. Just make sure the wood is not soft when you press on it.

Clogged garbage disposal? Try these 2 things before calling a plumber: 1) Blue Arrow - on the bottom of the disposal underneath the sink, use the Allen wrench (included with most disposals) on the grinding mechanism to manually spin the blades to release the jam 2) Red Arrow - press the red reset button. This is a fairly common issue and an easy way to save money!
