Page 4 www.southpark2-hoa.org / SouthPark 2 TIMES / June 2012 Exterior Upkeep Of Your Home Homeowners are reminded that they are responsible for maintaining the exterior of their townhome. This includes, but not limited to; wood trim, siding, roofing, gutters, windows, screens, brick, concrete patios, porches and steps, etc. This year approximately 30 of the 548 townhomes are required to paint (for a list of those buildings required to paint, check the web page at www.southpark2-hoa.org). During recent walkthroughs of the community, it was noted some of these townhomes have considerable rotten wood that will require replacement prior to painting. Other than surface preparation, replacement of rotten wood is paramount. Many times rotten wood is simply painted over and not replaced. This leads to more cost in the future and a paint job that will fail. When the annual inspection is conducted to confirm that the townhome owner required to paint has complied, owners will be advised of any rotten wood that should have been replaced. To avoid additional cost and inconvenience, make sure rotten wood is replaced when the townhome is being prepared for painting. Do a pre-walkthrough with your painting contractor to inspect for rotten wood and obtain an estimate up front. All homeowners should, at a minimum annually inspect the exterior of their townhome to see if repairs are necessary. Periodic maintenance in the long run will save you money and will 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 newsletter and the radio/television consumer advocate Tom Martino’s referral list (www. Referrallist.com). A check with the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and references from the contractor should also be considered. Excellent Real Estate Services, Affordable “MATES RATES.” Australian charm with client focus and a smile ~ Cheers!! Slow Down!!! There have been several reports of speeding vehicles through the community, particularly at the large curve on the north end of Long Drive. This curve has a major blind spot and with the addition of vehicles parked along the street it makes it even more dangerous. With nice summer days there are many walkers and children playing outside. Please be careful, obey the speed limit and use common sense when driving through our heavily populated residential community.

One simple way to keep the air you breathe fresh and free of odors and chemicals is to keep a few houseplants around. They’ll clean the atmosphere and make your surroundings more pleasant and relaxing. Pick up some of these: • English ivy. This climbing vine grows in hanging baskets and low planters, and it helps clear away formaldehyde. (Be aware that it requires regular misting, especially during the winter months.) • Peace lily. A flowering plant, the peace lily will eradicate toxins like acetone, benzene, and ammonia from the air. Remember to wash the leaves every once in a while. • Rubber plant. This plant is hardy enough to survive cool temperatures and low light, making it ideal even if you’re not particularly good with plants. Like the English ivy, it acts to reduce formaldehyde in the air as long as it gets plenty of water. National Nursing Assistants Week, June 14-21 Nursing assistants are important to the people in their care, and each nursing assistant is called to create an environment of caring.
