A bare bulb in a closet is one of those things nobody thinks about twice. 💡

An incandescent bulb runs hot enough to matter, and a closet is the one room in the house where fabric gets pushed up against whatever is on the ceiling. A shelf gets full, a garment bag leans over, and now something flammable is resting on a heat source nobody is looking at.

The fix is not expensive. A covered fixture, or an LED that does not put out the same heat.

Floor tiles measuring nine inches square are a tell. That size went out of production decades ago and the material often contains asbestos. Ugly is not the problem. The problem is what happens if someone rips them up on a Saturday with a pry bar.

I do not test for it and I do not guess at it. I call it out and recommend an environmental specialist sample it before anyone disturbs the floor.

Look above your garage door, not at it.

That horizontal steel piece carrying the stone or brick over the opening is a lintel. When it rusts, the rust takes up more room than the steel did, and it pushes everything above it apart. Slow at first. Then not slow.

This one was well past the point where paint would help. Left alone, the masonry it holds ends up in the driveway.

Two slots and no ground. ⚡

Older receptacles like this one have no equipment grounding path, so anything with a three prong plug either gets forced in or run through an adapter. Neither is safe. Replacing them, or adding GFCI protection where a ground is not available, is a straightforward fix.

Small item on the report. Easy one to take care of.

Where is your heat actually going?

I found this supply duct pulled apart in the basement. Everything the system pushed through that run was emptying into the basement instead of the room above it. The owner told me one bedroom had just always been cold.

Why does one slope of a roof go green while the other stays clean? 🌿

Shade. Heavy moss like this holds water long after the rest of the roof has dried. It lifts the shingle edges, keeps moisture sitting against the surface, and shortens the life of the roof covering. North facing slopes under tree cover get it worst.

Worth cleaning properly, and worth thinking about the branches overhead.

𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗻𝘆 𝗯𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗴𝗹𝗮𝘇𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗼𝘀𝗼𝘁𝗲.

It builds up when wet wood burns. The moisture rides up with the smoke, cools, and leaves this tar behind on the brick and the damper.

Creosote is the leading cause of chimney fires, and once it has hardened into a glaze like this one it is genuinely difficult to remove.

The prevention is simple and the cure is not. Burn dry, seasoned wood only.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴.

Look at the horizontal separation where the block sits on the section below it. That footing was never carried down deep enough, so the wall keeps settling and the gap keeps opening.

Not every crack in a foundation is serious. This one is, because it is active. That distinction is the whole job.

Serving Point Pleasant Boro and Monmouth County.

Could you shut your water off right now, in the dark, in a hurry?

I found this shut off valve with the handle rusted clean off. It was not going anywhere. When a supply line lets go, the clock is measured in seconds and gallons, not minutes.

Find your main shut off this week. Turn it, make sure it moves, and show everyone in the house where it lives.

Look behind the downspout before you reach behind the downspout. 🐝

I found this one tucked into the gap between the pipe and the siding. From three feet away it is invisible. From arm's length it is a bad afternoon.

Part of the job is knowing where things like to hide. Gutter corners, soffit returns, meter boxes, behind anything that makes a nice sheltered pocket.

If it is warm out, call a specialist rather than a broom.
