Homeowner Tips: Holiday Home Safety Believe it or not, December is already here! If you have not already, you are about to put up a tree, along with lights and other holiday decorations in your home. With that, it is important to keep in mind some of the following home safety precautions during the holiday season: 1. If you are going with a fresh cut tree, pick one with high moisture content strong green in colour and very few needles should fall.... 2. Ensure the tree stand is immersed in water, and place your tree away from heat sources such as radiators or fireplaces. 3. Usually within two weeks, the tree will become dried out and should be disposed of. Check with you local community for recycling programs. 4. Canadian Standards Association (CSA) certified lights should be used, following indoor/outdoor guidelines. 5. Discard the lights if there are frayed or broken wires. 6. Always turn off lights before retiring for the night or leaving your house. These are just some holiday home safety tips to consider. We wish everyone a safe and happy holidays! See more

Did You Know: Anywhere from 15 to 35% of heat loss in wintertime can be attributed to poorly insulated windows. This compounded with all the condensation build-up can lead to leaky windows that can rot the frame and even ruin the drywall and floor underneath the window. Be sure to adjust your humidity in your home to reduce the condensation and if you do have leaky windows, make sure you are clearing the area of water frequently.
