Whether you’re dealing with the aftermath of a flood, hurricane, tornado, or any other natural disaster, you can be sure that scams will abound. Being able to recognize scams is the key to avoiding them.How scammers operateWhen a community is in the midst of cleaning up after a disaster, rip-off artists know that opportunities await. Home owners are desperate to get work done and, because of the amount of cleanup and repairs needed, local contractors often are overwhelmed by demand.Within days of a disaster, out-of-state contractors (and those who just call themselves contractors) will begin showing up. They’ll tack up signs in public places and on trees, advertising their services and their cell phone numbers, or they’ll go door-to-door.Typically, they’ll offer to do the work for a cer... 11/03/2015

We love our dogs, but our yards don’t. Dogs dig up the lawn in a heartbeat, eager to bury a bone or chase a gopher, leaving gaping holes and piles of dirt.Here’s how to keep your dog from digging up your yard. (If it’s your garden instead, here are tips on how to keep dogs out of your garden.)1. Tire out your dogA napping dog is not a digging dog, so exhaust your pet with regular walks and active play.“Home owners with big yards think they can just open the back door and their dogs will be entertained,” says Tim Link, a dog expert and author of Wagging Tales.“That’s boring for an animal,” says Link. “You have to mix it up. If a dog is stimulated, he’ll get into a lot less mischief.”To activate your animal, try: Hiding a favorite indoor toy outdoors so he can hunt for it. Playing catch w... 09/23/2015

Clean your rain gutters at least twice a year. Otherwise, debris like leaves and twigs can clog up your gutter system, causing potential harm to your house and landscaping -- not to mention the gutters themselves. Here's how to identify and fix a clogged gutter.Is My Gutter Clogged?When it rains, here are the telltale signs of a clogged gutter: Water spills over the edges of a gutter. Water sprays like a fountain from gutter seams and elbow joints. Water doesn’t flow out the bottom of downspout extensions. If it’s not raining, look for these telltale signs: Eroded earth directly below a gutter. Peeling paint on siding and fascia. Wet, moist, or dirty siding beneath the gutter. Gutters pulling away from the fascia (likely caused by excessive weight). Where's the Gutter Clogged?The downsp... 07/28/2015

Find a great housemate and you can end up with a new best friend.Make a bad choice, and you can end up with a fiend.I had the fiend experience back in the ‘80s when I agreed to split a two-bedroom house with a college student I’d just met. It took me a few months to realize the textbooks she carried around were a prop she used to do a naughty schoolgirl routine at the massage parlor where she worked. Her chronic sniffles weren’t from allergies; they were from too much cocaine snorting.That was the end of my willingness to share my space until I met my husband. We have a lot of extra space in our current home, but I’d have to be really hard up for cash to rent out any of it.There are apparently several million people who disagree with me. The Census Bureau says 6.2 million Americans live... 07/27/2015

Your plants need food — nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium — to grow healthy and strong. But they don’t know the difference between store-bought fertilizers and the tonics you mix up yourself.So save some money (up to $12 for 32 oz. of organic plant food) and use these low- or no-cost ingredients to make your own slow-release fertilizer. Your plants and pocketbook will thank you.(For more ways to save money in your garden, check out this article on how to salvagefree seeds from your kitchen.)Nutrients Plants NeedPlants needs a well-balanced diet of: Nitrogen: Promotes leaf growth. Phosphorous: Stimulates root growth. Potassium: Aids flower and fruit development. Plants also need “micro-nutrients” in small amounts, including calcium, sulfur, magnesium, zinc, and iron.First, Test Your SoilT... 07/26/2015

A stamped concrete patio gives you the look and texture of a stone patio for a lot less than the real thing -- up to 50% less than the cost of natural slate or limestone.That’s not all. Stamped concrete can mimic brick, cobblestones, cracked earth, and weathered wood. Add a bit of fun with leaf patterns, animal shapes, even dinosaur footprints.Best of all, a stamped concrete patio is low-maintenance — the “stones” won’t settle over time, creating uneven surfaces, and there are no grout or joints that can open up to let grass and weeds sprout.What’s a Stamped Concrete Patio?A stamped concrete patio is simply a concrete slab with a textured, embossed surface. The contractor: Pours and smooths the slab. Presses a pattern into the surface while the concrete is still wet and soft. For realis... 07/23/2015

A mature tree can account for as much as 10% of your assessed property value, depending on your market.  With that much at stake, you sure don’t want to have to yell, “Timber!”Here’s how to tell if one of your trees is in danger of falling over, and what you can do about it.How to Inspect Your TreesNo one knows your trees as well as you. So after they leaf out in the spring, leaf off in the fall, and after a big storm, walk around and look at your lovelies, top to bottom, noticing changes in foliage, branches, roots, and bark. Inspect all sides of the tree, both up close and from a distance. Check for cuts in or peeling bark. Use binoculars to inspect the tree’s crown for dead wood and brown leaves. Leaning TreesTrees usually don’t grow straight, and a little lean is normal. But when yo... 07/22/2015

An underground irrigation system delivers water to your landscaping at the right time, and in just the right amount, so you don’t water too much or too little. It’s relatively easy to install and makes a good DIY project.You’ll also save money doing it yourself. A professionally installed system for a typical ¼-acre lot is $3,000 to $4,000. You can DIY it for under $1,500.The heart of an underground system is pop-up sprinkler heads. When working, the heads raise up a few inches to spray water on your landscape. When not in use, they drop to ground level so you can mow or walk right over them.Plus, today’s systems are pretty darn smart. Automated features decide when it’s been raining too much or too little, then adjust the amount of water your landscaping gets. That lowers the worry quo... 07/21/2015

I just love mason jars, those wide-mouth glass canning jars that hold everything from strawberry jam to fireflies. That’s one reason I’ve fallen for the DIY mason jar light fixture made by Taylor of the MaryJanes & Galoshes blog.Although Taylor originally wanted it to light up her gazebo, she loves it so much she’s going to relocate it to her living room.Taylor glued the jars to a wood plank, stuffed strings of Christmas lights into the jars, then hung the whole thing in her gazebo, giving the fixture a saloon-meets-fairyland feel.It all took only four hours (not including drying time for the stain) and $31 to build. Can’t beat that!How She Did ItTaylor takes you step-by-step in her tutorial. Here are the basics: Decide how long you want the fixture and select a plank accordingly. Taylo... 07/20/2015
