Home repairs are inevitable. For the homeowner who also happens to be handy with a hammer, the occasional home repair is nothing to fear and something that many even enjoy. But there many homeowners who aren’t so adept at home repairs, and such men and women typically rely on trained professionals when something goes awry around the house. For those homeowners who either don’t have the time or the ability to fix issues that arise around the house, the following is a breakdown of three of the more commonly called on home service providers.
Plumber Landscaper Electrician
A plumber is a professional whose area of expertise is in installing and maintaining systems for drinking water, drainage and sewage. Though not all jurisdictions require a plumber be licensed before he or she can practice, many do, and it can take years of training and experience to master the skill of plumbing. Many people call a plumber when a toilet or sink backs up, but plumbers must have far more extensive skills as well. Plumbers must be skilled in a number of areas, including having an ability to read and understand a home’s blueprints, detect faults in a plumbing system if the homeowner cannot install and repair fixtures and systems, and be aware of any legal requirements to ensure a home is safe.
Homeowners have increasingly looked to professional landscapers to maintain their home’s exterior and subsequently ensure their property value remains high. A typical landscaper offers his client an array of services, from cutting the grass to raking leaves to more complicated tasks that gravitate toward landscape architecture. A home’s curb appeal has been shown to vastly improve a prospective buyer’s impression of the house, and as a result many homeowners rely on a landscaper to take care of their property. Many landscapers an extensive knowledge of the science involved in tending to a lawn and how to help it weather the seasons without losing its appeal.
An electrician specializes in addressing a building’s or home’s electrical wiring issues, stationary machines and the equipment related to those machines. Electricians can fix existing issues, but many also can design and install new electrical components and systems. The dangers of working with electrical systems are many, so electricians typically must be certified and licensed before they can practice their trade. Such danger is one reason why even those who are adept at fixing problems around the house might want to hire an electrician should an electrical issue arise.

ADDITIONAL GUIDELINES Submission of an ad or advertising order constitutes an agreement of all terms and conditions listed herein, and such an agreement supersedes any other terms submitted by the advertiser or his agent. All rates quoted are net. All advertising is payable when ad copy is submitted unless prior credit is established. Errors on the part of the Daily Herald which render the ad valueless will be adjusted only on the part of the ad in error, and only for regular charges for that portion of the ad. Ads rerun at no charge due to errors will be run in the first available edition after the error is brought to the attention of the newspaper. Claims for the adjustment in billing must be made within 30 days of billing. In no event shall the publisher be liable for any consequent damages, lost profits, lost business, or any nature other than the return of charges made to the advertiser in connection with the advertising material. The advertiser shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless
the publisher against any claim of liability of losses asserted or established against the publisher by any reason of the publication of any advertisement in subsequent issues. All advertising is subject to approval. The publisher reserves the right to revise or reject any advertisement which may be deemed objectionable, whether in subject matter, graphics, wording or setup. Proofs of ads are delivered to advertisers when requested. Advertiser or authorized agent’s approval of proof removes all responsibility for errors in price or copy from the newspaper. In the case of ads running multiple times, please check your ad on the first day the ad is published. All camera work and copy produced by the Killeen Daily Herald will be available to the advertiser only and will not be shared with any other company. Space is nor sold or reserved contingent upon approval of the proof. A proof may be shown on ads if the copy has been received by established deadlines for checking typographical work only. Proofs are not shown on late ads, and the Killeen Daily Herald takes no responsibility for errors on ads that are submitted after established deadlines. No positions within the paper are promised; however, position requests may be granted whenever possible
when such requests are in keeping with the composition policy and mechanical requirements of the publisher. Adjustments of advertising charges will not be made on the basis of an ad’s position in the newspaper. Advertising which is requested to run conditionally upon receipt of a particular position will not be accepted. Ads cannot be cancelled after the established deadline, except in cases of extreme emergency and at the discretion of the publisher. If merchandise failed to arrive or is not available for sale, the Killeen Daily Herald will make reasonable changes in the ad so it may run in the space and on the day scheduled. Editorial consideration does not accompany any class of paid advertisement.
