What's that smell?

As a real estate agent, you are used to helping potential buyers see past issues with a listing so they can see the potential behind it. Some houses make this easier than others. One of the hardest things to overcome in a home for sale is a bad odor. It can make the whole experience difficult to endure and turn off potential buyers as soon as they open the door.

Bad odors typically come from two main sources - cigarette smoke and mold. Both smells are notoriously hard to remove and can drive down the property value of the home you are trying to sell.

Thankfully, Steel Horse Restoration is no stranger to overcoming the challenges of a smelly home and knows how to address the root cause of the issue and not just cover up the scent for a temporary fix. Mold and mildew can cause major issues if not addressed correctly and can lead to more serious damage if left untreated. Cigarette smoke can infiltrate all of the fibers of your home and needs to be properly handled in order to permanently change the smell of the home. If you have a listing with either of these issues contact Steel Horse Restoration to disucss your action plan. Visit us online at www.steelhorserestoration.com

Unlikely Source of Leaks

When you think of water leaks in your home you may consider some of the most common culprits such as toilets, showers, dishwashers or even pipes in the attic. You may not think about your water heater. Typically located out of sight, water heaters play a vital role in your home and have the potential to leak and cause plenty of damage on their own.

There are several reasons water heaters may leak including:

- Loose pipe connections, valves or fittings

- Cracks or corrosion

- A damaged pressure relief valve

- Build up within the water heater from hard water

- Wear and tear from years of use

If you suspect a leak from your water heater it is imperative to have it addressed by a professional as soon as possible. Once the leak has been addressed, Steel Horse Restoration and Consulting can help with the clean up and repair from any water damage.

Wild Weather

According to several recognized groups including Copernicus, a European climate change organization, 2023 was one of the warmest years on record, beating out 2016 as the hottest year to date. Across the country we experienced extreme weather from droughts to floods, hurricanes and tornadoes. This past weekend brought much colder weather than the area is used to seeing. Temperatures will be going up from here but these changes in temperature can take a toll on the health of your home.

Temperature swings can cause fluctuations in your home’s exterior including siding, roofing, windows and doors. This can allow for the build up of water or condensation which could lead to water damage or the growth of mold/mildew. It is important to watch your home closely for any signs of damage and have it addressed as quickly as possible.

Steel Horse Restoration and Consulting knows how to assess your home for signs of possible damage and can help you develop a restoration plan that protects you and your home. We will work with your insurance to make sure that all paperwork is properly filed. Don’t wait for bad weather to make problems worse - have Steel Horse Restoration and Consulting take care of your home! Visit www.steelhorserc.com.

Space Heater Safety

Fire damage can occur because of many common household appliances and this time of year that includes space heaters. Space heaters are often used to supplement your home heating system especially in the winter. Used correctly they can be a great source of comfort but improper use can be especially dangerous.

According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, space heaters are involved in more than a thousand home fires every year. There are several safety rules you should follow when using a space heater to keep it functioning safely and efficiently. Some of these rules include:

- Keep space heaters on the floor and on a level space - do not put on a shelf or table

- Always keep water away from space heaters

- Avoid placing a space heater within 3 feet of anything flammable such as curtains, rugs or pillows

- Never leave a space heater running in an empty room - turn it off when you leave

Taking steps to reduce the chances of a house fire due to space heater use is important but sometimes accidents happen no matter how careful we are. In those cases call a trusted property restoration professional like Steel Horse Restoration and Consulting. We offer immediate responses and the knowledge to restore your home quickly and safely.
