WHO’S BEEN SNOOPED?

vision, they can bring it to life and then you can talk about the affordable price.

Throw Open The Shutters, Santa Is On His Way! Well, the pumpkin pie is finally gone and the last bit of turkey made it to burritos and most of us have already climbed into the attic to bring down the Christmas decor.

With the farmlands fast asleep and the days filled with enough chill to warrant winter clothes, this is the time of year when we begin preparation for company. What a great time to look in on a local business who can help you get your home looking spectacular.

The really cool thing about snooping Contra Costa Blinds is they are such great business people and have been serving our community for over 20 years. Whether you are moving into your new home or wanting to finally put on the finishing touches in the one you have been in for years, they are ready for your free consultation. Yep, free! And these pros are consultants, not salesmen. That means you can share your

I think I like that they get excited about even the smallest of projects best and they have the knowledge and resources to help you get that job done and make a plan for the next. Beauty and functionality are key with Contra Costa Blinds and they are familiar with and offer the latest styles, color, texture, finishes and operating systems. They partner only with premium manufacturers, like Norman and Hunter Douglas, which guarantees great craftsmanship and wonderful warranties.

That gets ten extra points!

When I spoke to them, they were really excited to tell me about the push button motorization and automation systems. I went to their website and looked at all the on-line tools and resources to see just exactly how that could work in my home.

No wonder they were excited, this is amazing! You can take a virtual tour of your own home with all the updated equipment and styles. Talk about a great way to start your Christmas list.

And, if you are not ready to redecorate right now, just give them a call to repair the window covering or shutter that hasn’t worked in months. Once you meet their service team, you are sure to

book an appointment for an in-home consultation. You’re going to love their design consultants. And the best part, you don’t have to go to (you know where) and talk about your vision while leaning on a shopping cart.

So, Matt Baker, owner of Contra Costa Blinds, this secret shopper gives you ten, not eight, prancing reindeer for taking such good care of us for all these years and to possibly deliver those new shutters so we can peek to see Santa come on Christmas Eve. I have already filled out my “Dear Santa” list with the one touch push button automation system. Who will be snooped next? It could be you!

Contra Costa Blinds can be reached at 925-418-2868 or on the web at ContraCostaBlinds.com.

FOR YOUR DENTAL HEALTH

Effects of Food and Beverages Even though tooth decay has remarkably reduced over 30 years it is still a silent epidemic. About 20% of children between 2 and 4 years have detectable caries and by 17 years of age 80% of young people have had a cavity.

Diet plays an important role in a person’s pre-disposition to developing cavities.

Plaque bacteria readily metabolise sugars and additives in food and drinks to produce acids that result in enamel softening or demineralization. Frequent and excessive sugar consumption is an important factor for cavities to start.

The intake of carbohydrates particularly sucrose more than four times a day or in quantities more than sixty grams per day can increase the rate of cavities. The more frequent intake of sugary snacks between meals exposes the enamel to longer periods of acid attacks leading to softer enamel. Sugar added cereals are a combination of refined sugar and starch and are most commonly consumed breakfast items in the morning. Processed

food starches in modern human diets have significant cavity producing characteristics in them. In both human and animal studies researchers found that the combination of sugar and starch led to more enamel demineralization than did a diet of sugar alone. Children who consumed cereal with added sugar have more cavities in their teeth. Beverages such as milk and juice also have different effects on oral health. Fruit juices are considered healthy food choices, however excessive intake of or continuously sipping fruit juices can be a risk to dental health because these juices are highly acidic and they are also processed with added ingredients especially sugar which can cause erosion and caries. Fruit juices often are included as the beverage of choice in children’s meals or snack packs and are considered healthy. There are concerns regarding the high caloric and sugar contents of fruit juices which may lead to obesity thereby adversely affecting general health. Unfortunately the implications of fruit juices as a cause of dental caries usually are not emphasized.

the number of cavity causing bacteria increases especially when the patient is undergoing orthodontic treatment. It is essential to prevent the accumulation of plaque and calculus on the teeth and around orthodontic appliances and to get the teeth evaluated every 6 months.

Currently high emphasis is placed on the relationship between sugary drinks and snacks and obesity but there is a need for equal emphasis on the harmful effects of such food and drinks on oral health.

Essential cornerstone to control cavities is preventive and interceptive care like getting teeth checked every 6 months for kids and watch what kids eat and drink.

Most people have caries causing bacteria in their dental plaque. In health there tends to be low numbers of bacteria and the frequent disturbance of the biofilm during tooth brushing and flossing will prevent demineralization or cavitation of a tooth. When large numbers of plaque are present due to inadequate oral hygiene

Sun Busters Has You Covered!

Hiring an expert to construct an outdoor living space on your property provides countless advantages. Exterior living areas are undoubtedly a worthy investment that increase the value of your home and provide tremendous utility by granting more room to convene with family and friends. Sun Busters Patio Covers Company, Inc., of Brentwood has been helping people embrace the outdoor lifestyle since 1998 by offering professional, honest, and reliable service with a personalized customer connection.

Owner, Alan Lee, is a firm believer in exceptional customer satisfaction. Founded upon the principles of integrity and professionalism, the company philosophy is that customer service doesn’t end after the sale. Years ago, Alan was inspired to succeed by his grandmother who told him regardless of what he decided to be in life, he should strive to be the best. Today, he is proud to be the proprietor of a trustworthy business that provides the community valuable services and quality products at a fair price.

If you desire additional square footage for recreation and entertaining, Sun Busters can guide you in how to create the outdoor space of your dreams. They offer design and construction of a wide variety of freestanding or attached pergolas, gazebos, trellises, and latticework structures. A properly designed patio cover provides increased elbow room to comfortably

accommodate you and your guests despite the weather, offering protection from the elements. No more cramping everyone in a crowded house!

Additionally, the crew at Sun Busters are skilled with insulated roofing, non-insulated roofing, louvered roof patio covers, golf ball protection, wind break screens, awning installation, and custom drop shades.

Installation was within their estimated time-frame which included getting building permits. Not a day goes by that I don’t receive joy from this purchase. Price was such that I expect the value added to my home is more.” - David B. “Just had our patio cover installed and could not be happier. From our rep Janice to the installers to the office staff, the process has been great! My wife and I are pleased with the craftsmanship and look forward to spending time out under it. We had 3 quotes, all were great companies but Sun Busters came through on price and service.”

ON THE HOUSE

Greenworks’ battery innovation with both products means there is no messy gas or oil mixture to deal with, and push-button start technology ensures that you’ll never have to bother with a pesky pull-cord again!

a number of reasons why pruning in the winter is best.

Tips For Winter Tree Care

• The wounds heal faster, which keeps the plant strong.

It’s hard to believe that winter is almost here.

It seems like yesterday we were just getting our yards and patios ready to host summer barbecues and pool parties, and now we’re beginning to think about winterizing plants and trimming tree branches. Winter is the best time to trim and prune trees and shrubs because they’re dormant. With winter around the corner, here are some tips to consider when deciding whether to trim or prune your trees.

Before you start Trimming and pruning trees is a big job, and there are a lot of things to consider before starting that project. It’s a good idea to do a quick search online and see if there are special techniques to prune specific trees.

When to prune

• Pruning a tree helps it maintain its shape and appearance.

• There is less risk of disease or infestation.

• It’s easier to see when the leaves are gone.

• Dead or broken branches can fall at any time, which creates a safety hazard.

Selecting trimming equipment It’s important to make sure that you have the right tools for the job. Greenworks 60V 10-Inch Brushless Pole Saw is great for those higher branches that are hard to reach. On a fully charged battery, this lightweight pole saw will run for an hour and extend up to 8 feet. The Greenworks 60V 16-Inch Cordless Brushless Chainsaw is perfect for those larger trimming jobs.

It provides you with up to 90 cuts on a fully charged battery with a chain brake that halts the chain to prevent accidental kickback.

Pruning during dormancy is the most common practice among arborists, and it’s usually best to wait until the coldest part of the winter to begin this process. It results in vigorous growth in the spring. There are

PATRICK MCCARRAN

Wrapping Your Home for the Holidays Listing your home in time for the holidays? This is a time when you can showcase your house in a unique way to highlight areas that normally may not stand out. Create a festive atmosphere and allow perspective buyers to envision what entertaining will be like in the property— complete with a beautifully trimmed tree, the twinkling of lights and the smell of Christmas cookies in the air.

That being said I am not suggesting that you channel Clark Griswold in “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation,” As with all staging less is generally more. You do not want to overwhelm the buyer or distract form the homes features merely highlight them.

Buyers often will associate a sense of ‘home’ through the traditions and memories of holidays past. Through tasteful decorations you can bring those memories out and it is a great way to attract buyers.

There is nothing like a great Christmas light display to slow them down and peak their interest. “A well-designed display adds festive elegance to a home, and highlights the already-present features of the property,” said Brandon Stephens, vice president of Marketing at The Decor Group, Inc., specializing in interior and exterior holiday decorating. This doesn’t have to be an over the top contest worthy event. A straight forward light display and a few lawn decorations such as Frosty coupled with large ornaments in the trees can turn almost any yard festive. Don’t forget to highlight the for sale sign as well, a few lights and maybe some well placed decorations.

Embrace the holidays by holding a twilight open house, turn up the festive music while serving hot chocolate and Christmas cookies to show off the Christmas lights, holiday decorations and all that the house has to offer.

Here are some simple suggestions to ensure your home captures the holiday spirit without interfering in the real estate process: • Keep decorations to a minimum so you don’t block views, make rooms feel smaller and disrupt the natural flow of the home.

• Consider a smaller tree and store most of the gifts in another room.

• Incorporate fresh evergreen into your decorating for a classic look and to promote

“the Christmas tree smell.”

• Make sure light strings and extension cords are tucked away for everyone’s safety.

• Try to avoid overly religious or cultural decorations to keep it neutral so a greater number of buyers will see it as their potential home.

• Leave a plate of holiday cookies and warm cider or cocoa for prospective buyers with a nice holiday note.

The holidays are emotional times for many people, including home shoppers. Holiday decorations presented tastefully and sensibly, can help you wrap a bow on your home for just the right buyer.

Happy Holidays and Season Greetings!

Who’s Who... in East County

A fresh coat of paint is the easiest way to transform the interior and exterior of your home and add value to your investment. Whether the goal is to revamp your current residence or sell, having your house painted by professionals adds indoor ambiance and greater curb appeal that undoubtedly attracts a wider range of potential buyers.

Dollar for dollar, contracting with S. Page & Son Painting of Antioch is one of the simplest and least expensive ways to renovate and increase the worth of residential and commercial property.

In addition to cosmetic enhancement, painting protects building materials and drastically reduces the risk of costly future repairs. Exterior painting provides a defensive shield, guarding against severe weather conditions that erode structural surfaces. Expert painters can also make recommendations to protect buildings from unwelcome and detrimental insect infestations.

It’s no wonder that the owner of S. Page & Son, Jason, has a passion for painting, ceiling work, and drywall. His grandfather helped to paint the Golden Gate Bridge when it was built and his father began his own painting business in 1979. Inspired by these men, he followed in their footsteps and now has over 20 years of experience.

Like his forefathers, he takes great pride in his work. A self-proclaimed “on-site boss,” he personally oversees each job to assure the work is done as agreed upon, resulting in a high level of customer satisfaction.
