Christmas in July
Yes, it’s hot and I am sure I am not the only one who would love some cooler weather, but that’s not what this message is about. We have all dealt with and continue to deal with supply chain issues in some shape, form or fashion and my industry is not immune. 

If you are considering a holiday gift or a thank you gift to your associates, team members, partners and/or customers, be it a piece of logoed apparel or a logoed promotional item please consider ordering them now. 

We are seeing unprecedented delays throughout the entire supply chain and inventory levels are changing on a daily basis. To save yourself from unnecessary headaches and last minute purchases, which always tend to go over budget. Take some time and start thinking about what you would like to do.

The road continues to be bumpy but I can definitely see the light at the end of the tunnel. If you have any questions or if I can provide you with any additional information, please do not hesitate to let me.

What exactly causes mold you ask?

Outside molds help to break down plant and animal matter. As part of the fungi family, they release tiny spores that float through the air. These spores can enter your home via:

•          doors
•          windows
•          heating and air conditioning vents
•          clothing and shoes
•          pets

Inside mold spores can’t grow unless conditions are right. The spores can latch on to a variety of materials, including fabrics, carpet, paper, and wood. Mold prefers spaces with lots of moisture and little light, such as:

•          in sinks, bathtubs, and showers
•          near leaky pipes
•          around windows
•          in basements, crawl spaces, and attics
 
Our estimates and inspections are FREE.
