Your income tax refund was a little larger than you expected, and you’ve made the decision to take that money and spruce up your home. You’ve wanted to do so many things around the house, and it may be a little intimidating trying to decide where to start.
Winter has almost run its course, but lifelong Arkansans know quite well that Mother Nature’s wrath knows no season. Winter brings bitter cold temperature and the occasional ice storm, which can wreak havoc. Springtime brings the threat of heavy rains, high winds, hail, and tornadoes that often result in heavy, localized damage. High summer temperatures bring the constant threat of power outages as air conditioning units run full blast trying to cope, and with fall comes the secondary severe weather season, that is no less treacherous.
When you need quality electrical service, you have a lot of choices of residential and commercial electricians, and finding the one that’s the right fit can be a daunting task. You should always request bids from multiple contractors and see how they compare. You should also never be afraid to ask questions, particularly if a bid comes in substantially lower than the others: what corners are they prepared to cut to offer you that rock bottom price?
We’ve sprung forward, and the daffodils are in bloom: it must be springtime! After the punishingly cold winter that we just had, Arkansans are all breathing a sigh of relief as the days start to get longer, and the sun sits high in the sky.
We’ve got another Arkansas Winter bearing down on us, and power outages are inevitable when temperatures drop, especially when we get a significant snow or ice event.
