June 2008 / SouthPark 2 TIMES / www.southpark2-hoa.org Page 3Exterior Upkeep of your HomeHomeowners are reminded that they are responsible for maintainingthe exterior of their townhome. This includes, but not limitedto wood trim, siding, roofing, gutters, windows, screens,brick, concrete patios, porches and steps, etc.This year approximately 240 of the 548 townhomes arerequired to paint (for a list of those buildings required to paint,check the web page at www.southpark2-hoa.org). During recentwalkthroughs of the community, it was noted some of these townhomeshave considerable rotten wood that will require replacementprior to painting. Other than surface preparation,replacement of rotten wood is paramount. Many times rottenwood is simply painted over and not replaced. This leads to morecost in the future and a paint job that will fail.When the annual inspection is conducted to confirm that thetownhome owner required to paint has complied, owners will beadvised of any rotten wood that should have been replaced. Toavoid additional cost and inconvenience, make sure rotten woodis replaced when the townhome is being prepared for painting. Doa pre-walkthrough with your painting contractor to inspect forrotten wood and obtain an estimate up front.All homeowners should, at a minimum, annually inspect theexterior of their townhome to see if repairs are necessary.Periodic maintenance in the long run will save you money andwill keep up the appearance of your townhome.If you need a contractor, check with family and friends first.Other possible sources for referrals are the community newsletterand the radio/television consumer advocate Tom Martino’sreferral list (www.Referrallist.com). A check with the BetterBusiness Bureau (BBB) and references from the contractorshould also be considered.LNO ScheduleThe lovely Jan Baer has once again released to theSouthPark public the coveted list of restaurants chosen forLadies’ Night Out.
