Are you moving in Salt Lake City to a new home? Much of the time the home is only new to the person taking occupancy. Moving into a previously-lived-in home, you will undoubtedly run into wear and tear around the house. If you have purchased this new home, odds are it is in pretty decent shape, but there is always room for improvement. I would like to offer some food-for-thought that will hopefully inspire those soon to move into a new-to-you home. A little bit of effort goes a long way, and may inspire you to start other home-improvement projects as well. Before your Salt Lake City mover arrives to deliver your furniture, consider the following simple improvements for your new home:

• Doors and windows are an excellent starting point. Think about how often you open and close your doors and windows. Over time, these access points do succumb to wear and tear. Replacing the weather stripping along door and window frames is a smart and easy fix as this improves the appearance of your home, and the efficiency of your air conditioning and heating appliances. This should be pretty self explanatory and also very simple to do. As for any hinged doorways; over time a squeak is likely to develop as moisture can cause rust, and friction can cause an accumulation of tiny metal shavings inside the hinges. It is best to remove hinge pins so that the door can be removed and the hinge components cleaned out and lubricated. Any petroleum based lubricant such as WD-40 will work well. Take this opportunity to tighten the mounting hardware on each hinge as these become loose over time. Tightening the hinge screws should fix most stuck doors also. You may want to use sand paper to file down the top and/or sides of any doors which stick even after the hinges have been fixed. Also, survey each doorway in need of new door stoppers. Avoiding doorknob holes in your wall is one way to keep your new home nice!
• Light switch and power outlet plate replacement is also a simple effective fix for your new home. If these plates are in need of replacement, you may even choose to upgrade all of them to a different style/color. There are many different styles of switch and outlet plates to choose from, you’ll surely find a style that grabs your attention. While you are in the process of removing your old plates, take this opportunity to insulate behind plates on the exterior walls of your home. Energy efficiency repairs are very advantageous and are often simple fixes.
• The walls of your new home may be in need of some quick fixes. If the previous owners of your home hung pictures, there may be several nail holes in your walls. These are simple to repair, just apply a small wad of putty into each nail hole and smooth it out with a knife. A fresh coat of new paint doesn’t hurt either after your nail holes have been filled. If you notice pealing wallpaper, there is a much quicker fix than fully replacing it. Simply spread a liberal amount of paste on both sides of a note card or sheet of paper. Place the paper applicator between the wall and the wallpaper, and flatten the pealed wallpaper against the pasted paper so that the glue is applied evenly. Then slide the applicator back out from between the wall and wallpaper. Pat down the wallpaper one more time to make extra sure that the paste is well applied and then use a damp cloth to clean any excess paste that may have squeezed out from under the wallpaper.

There are plenty of simple inexpensive repairs you can perform on your new home. The better your new home looks, the more excited you’ll be about having your Salt Lake City movers finally deliver your furniture on your moving day. Be sure to hire a reputable Salt Lake City mover so that the walls floors and doors of your newly spruced up home remain in good shape.

There are number of reasons why consumers now thoroughly research their Salt Lake City moving company before booking their move. Organizations like the Better Business Bureau, American Moving and Storage Association serve as a source of support for those seeking reputable Salt Lake City moving companies.

Note the following complaints:

1) Movers hold possessions on truck and refuse to release

2)A ton of hidden fees

3) Customers notice missing furnishings

4) Complaints go unanswered

5) Movers never show-up on moving day

These scenarios are real. Instead of falling prey to rogue movers, research your Salt Lake mover and save.

Why is moving so stressful? If you have a fifty-inch plasma television mounted above your living room fire place, the answer to that question may be staring you in the face on a nightly basis!

You could guilt trip friends and family into devoting their weekend to you. But what good is your plasma tv if the once crystal-clear screen shatters teaching you, your brother, and his friend a tough, tough lesson? What good are friends and family if they suddenly ignore your phone calls after a not-so-fun weekend?

So here it is the night before Father’s Day I’m thinking back to old memories of family and friends – and spending holidays together. To any fathers that are reading this Happy Father’s Day!

I went to the Hogle Zoo - I wanted to see the animals, and just relax…

The Hogle Zoo was great! I saw a lot of great folks and had a lot of fun watching the animals… It was like a trip down memory lane… It reminded me of going to the zoo when I was a little kid. It also brought back other memories, memories of fishing and going for drives…

It also brought back some of those not so fond memories – like having to move. I remember moving as a child, the hot summer sun beating down on us, Dad being upset, yelling, the headaches, and all the body aches.

The funny thing is the last time I moved I didn’t even have to do it myself. I used a Salt Lake mover. I know – I know it seems like each cheating – but now I never want to move myself again. I used All My Sons Moving and Storage. The guys came out, they wrapped up my wooden furniture, and I didn’t even have to unpack my dressers! They disassembled my bed; they even reassembled it, and put everything where I wanted it to go! Now I never want to have to move myself again! Looking back I wish dad would have used a moving company…

From your favorite Salt Lake movers, Happy Father’s Day!
