C
ongratulations! You’ve just bought your first home. This place is completely yours! Condolences. You are now your own landlord and all the home maintenance is your responsibility. First time homeowners can often be overwhelmed with the necessity of maintaining their properties. When do you need to change your AC filter? What about that crack above the window? How long does a water heater last? And. so. much. more. Local realtors Stacie Gooch and Eric Hogue shared tips about the things they tell new homeowners. “Any home buyer, first-timer or multiple-timer, should always make sure their agent requests that the seller pay for a one-year home warranty in the contract,” Hogue advised. “That way the buyer has help if something should go wrong that first year of ownership. Additionally, I always recommend the ‘one percent rule,’ you should set aside at least one percent of your home’s value every year for home maintenance. For a $360,000 house, this works out to $3,600 per year, or $300 per month.”
In addition to wear-and-tear maintenance, some chores need to be performed seasonally or yearly. Gooch recommends homeowners have the HVAC systems serviced in the spring and fall; that the water heater is drained once a year “so that you are getting rid of residue” and that before you use your fireplace, have that chimney cleaned. She also advises foundation maintenance to help avoid those cracks above the windows. “To maintain your foundation, have an in-ground foundation drip system installed or use soaker hoses placed 18 inches away from the house.” Watering the foundation is a must, Hogue concurred. “Water the foundation with soaker hoses on the days your city allows you to water and don’t depend on your sprinkler system to do the job for you, because it won’t! Protect your foundation … especially in the summer and fall -- the non-rainy seasons.” Keeping the HVAC system well maintained is important to 6 | THECONNECTION | July/August 2021
cooling and heating your home, both realtors agree. Gooch tells homeowners to change the air filter on their unit every 30 days. Hogue recommends every 30 to 45 days. “It doesn’t matter if it is the most expense or the cheapest filter. They both work the same way,” he said.
Other yearly tasks, according to Gooch, include: • Removing old and peeling caulk and re-caulking around windows inside and out. • Checking that door thresholds do not have gaps at the bottom where air can escape or come in. • Inspecting roof vents to make sure they are sealed properly. • Monitoring the outside of your home for any holes in facia boards. Seal them up so rodents do not get in the attic. • Trimming all bushes and trees off of the roof and away from any wood or siding on the house. And just so you’ll know, there are some ‘rules’ about things that should and should not go into a garbage disposal. Gooch garbage disposal etiquette includes a list of “Never Put Ins.” Items on that list are: “Bones – they'll just keep spinning around and around with the blades; celery – the fibrous strings tend to tangle around the blades; coffee grounds – coffee grounds are deceptive; egg shells; fruit pits; grease; pasta; and potato peels.
OK. But how often should you plan on painting those inside rooms? “The easy answer is every five to seven years,” Hogue said, “but some walls in your home may need to be repainted more frequently than others due to daily wear and tear. For example, if you only eat in your formal dining room during the holidays, you probably won’t need to paint the walls as often as those found in your kitchen, hallways, or bathroom. Bottom line, if you paint the rooms yourself, painting is one of the least expensive ways to ‘update’ your home. You just need the paint and elbow grease.” Mortgage resource company HSH provides a list of home maintenance tasks and when to do them. Every 12 months, homeowners should: clean the clothes dryer exhaust; lubricate garage door springs; look for signs of termites; remove debris from rain gutters as needed; and check the tank if you are on a septic system. Projects that should be done every two to five years include: duct cleaning; reseal grout; replace caulking around windows and doors. Chores that can be done every five to 10 years include painting the exterior and inspecting appliances from the hot water heater to the kitchen sink for needed repairs or replacement. • w
Sometimes you just have to call for help! "My hubby and I purchased an older home in 1986. There was only a basic light fixture in the master. I found a ceiling fan on sale – it was 75-80 percent off original price! It sat in the corner of the bedroom for months. Hubby said since it was an older house, he needed to add reinforcement to the rafters in the attic to properly distribute the weight. I got feed up with waiting. I decided it couldn’t be that hard, I would do it. Our home had a second story addition and the attic access was upstairs. I took my flashlight and measuring device, went into the attic and crawled to the other side of the house to measure rafters by the light fixture in the bedroom. I did not know that they were always done to a standard width and all the same. Got my measurements, went back outside to cut a 2x4 to the proper width. Now I need to screw this board between two rafters by the light fixture. I find an extension cord, drill, flashlight, board and 3” screws. I used duct tape and taped the screws to my thigh. Put the board inside my shirt/bra along my spine. I tucked the flashlight into the front of my bra so it basically shined toward my chin. I carried the drill attached to the extension cord and climbed into the attic. A Wylie Chamber of Commerce Publication
Got about 4/5 of the way and ran out of extension cord. Went back out of the attic, unloaded the board and flashlight. Found a second extension cord and restarted my attic journey. About half way in, my flashlight quit. Back out of the attic, unload, search for batteries. There are no batteries in my house! But I do have an electric drop light! Fourth trip into the attic dragging drill, drop light 2x4 on my back and 3” screws taped to my thigh. I made it. Screwed the board into place. Now to exit the attic. I’m crawling along the rafters, lose my balance and fall onto the sheetrock. My left knee, hip and buttocks have fallen through the ceiling. I feel like I was stuck there for a while … but I finally found my way out, collected all the tools from the attic and sat and cried for a few minutes. Then I picked up the yellow pages and looked for handyman services. Called a few but it was Saturday afternoon and most told me they wouldn’t be available until the following week. One last chance before I call hubby to confess … I told this very nice man what happened and it needed to be fixed before my spouse got home. He agreed to come. I didn’t even ask what it cost!
The good news is I had started early and my hubby didn’t get off work until 10 p.m. and we had planned a late movie – we wouldn’t be home until after 1 a.m. Handyman repaired the sheetrock, painted, cleaned up AND installed the ceiling fan. I had left all the windows open for the house to air out. When we got home hubby didn’t notice anything. The next morning he was so excited and proud of me for installing that fan! About a month later, hubby was up late taking care of our finances. He came downstairs and woke me up to ask about a charge of $375 to Rent-A-Husband! I had to explain what had happened and convince him that Rent-A-Husband was the name of the handyman service. I have also tried to replace the toilet flapper – five hours, six trips to Home Depot, two calls to a plumber, borrowed tool from neighbor and $75 later … My handsome husband says it is cheaper for me to hire help." ~ Jean LaBron Moral: Plan you work, work your plan, plan for the unexpected and have a professional on speed dial! www.wyliechamber.org | 7
Houseplant Hobbyist TOP FIVE FOOLPROOF INDOOR PLANTS
AMBER WITH PHILODENDRON BRASIL
CHINESE EVERGREEN
GOLDEN POTHOS
L
ooking for a new hobby to do at home? Give houseplants a try. These top five foolproof houseplants will add greenery to any home or office and survive near-neglect. One of the most common houseplants is the Golden Pothos. This plant can handle low light and little water. A Pothos can be watered every two weeks or once a month. The more sun the leaves get, the more variegated they are, but don’t put this plant in direct sun. If you want to fertilize, doing so every six months won’t hurt. Another easy houseplant in the same family as the Golden Pothos is the Heartleaf Philodendron. This vining plant does well in a hanging basket or with something it can climb, like a trellis or moss pole. The Heartleaf can survive low or medium, bright light. Forget to water? No problem; this plant is drought tolerant, meaning it can survive a missed watering. There is a variegated version of the Heartleaf known as the Philodendron Brasil. Need a plant for your windowless office? A Chinese Evergreen would be a great choice. The Evergreen can tolerate fluorescent lights with water every three weeks. This plant is slow and easy to grow with long, narrow leaves that feature silver patterns. The Evergreen is versatile and can survive many conditions: sunlight, fluorescent light, moist soil, dry soil and no fertilizer. The Zamioculcas zamiifolia, or ZZ, is a good option for a low-lit area where you can set it and forget it. 8 | THECONNECTION | July/August 2021
SNAKE PLANT
RAVEN ZZ
This plant is drought tolerant and can handle low light (fluorescent light works here, too.) This plant is a slow grower that won’t mature for years but when it grows, it really grows, showing off waxy-leaf-filled shoots that get tall and lanky. The Raven ZZ is another variegation of this plant. After the Golden Pothos, the Snake Plant is the most common and easy-to-grow houseplant. With dark green, sword-like leaves, this plant can survive being watered every two months. The Snake Plant will grow faster in bright light, but can handle a low-lit area of your home or office. A fascinating aspect of this plant is it grows “pups,” smaller snake plants that grow from the root ball. Once the “pups” mature, they can be transferred from the mother plant and potted on their own. A few final tips for beginners: before watering your plants, do the “finger test.” Check the soil of your plant by sticking half of your finger in the soil and if your finger comes out completely clean with no soil on it, then your plant most likely needs water. Also make sure your pots have bottom drain holes and that your plant has some sort of light, whether it’s sunlight or fluorescent. Last parting advice: don’t forget to check your plants for pests, daily if you can. There are many home remedies for pests that include dish soap, warm water, rubbing alcohol and pesticides. Don’t be intimidated by houseplants – let them spark passion. Happy planting! • w

CITY OF WYLIE
Permit Needed? Know Before You Demo Ever feel like you’ve watched enough DIY home renovation television that you can just rip up that floor, take out that wall and re-do your floor plan? Well, wait a second before you pick up that sledge hammer. Most of those shows leave out the large amount of preparation and paperwork to be completed before most home improvement projects can be accomplished – beginning with the proper city permits. “Most renovations – such as constructing, enlarging, altering, repairing, demolition, electric, gas, mechanical, or plumbing work – require a permit,” cautions City of Wylie Chief Building Official Bret McCullough.
pipes being dislodged from natural gas hot water heaters that could have resulted in deadly CO2 entering the home. "Our commitment starts at the front counter and continues through the plan review stage then throughout the field inspection stage to assure compliance with the city’s codes and ordinances.” McCullough said getting a building permit and completing a project has three basic components -- permit processing, plan review and field inspections.
Thinking of updating your backyard? Check with the city first.
“An application is the first step. Plans and specifications are required for most permits along with the application. Some permits such as replacement of a water heater or an HVAC system would not require plans. Others such as patio covers, carports, storage buildings, outdoor kitchens, fences, irrigation systems, swimming pools, and most renovations and additions require plan review,” he said.
Decks and retaining walls depend on size. Swings and playground equipment do not need a permit. If your proposed deck is 200 square feet and less than 30 inches tall, you’re good to go. Fence repairs for 16 feet of fence or less, no permit needed. If you need a retaining wall, you can do it without a permit if the wall is not over 4 feet tall from the bottom of the footing to the top of the wall.
To be on the safe side, McCullough recommends checking with the building inspection department before starting homeimprovement projects.
Sidewalks and driveways on your property are OK but any work in the city’s right of way requires a permit.
“Inspections provide a measure of safety to protect your life and property,” he advises.
“Building permits are mandated by the State of Texas in order to provide for the health, life-safety, and welfare of the population,” McCullough said.
Permit fees range from $40 for fences to up to $100 for a carport, patio cover or accessory building.
Projects labeled as ‘finish work’ don’t need permits. These would include painting, adding wallpaper, tiling, carpeting, installing cabinets, and replacing counter tops.
He recalled that following the hail storm of 2016 inspections revealed a possibly deadly issue as a result of the many roof replacements. Inspectors found and fixed instances of vent stack
After the review and approval, inspectors come to your location and, well, inspect. “When all inspections are approved, the process is complete and this becomes a permanent record for your property,” McCullough said.
The City of Wylie Building Department is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday at the Wylie Municipal Complex, 300 Country Club Rd. Go to WylieTexas.gov for a list of permits or email permits@wylietexas.gov.

YOUR HOME
Protect Your Place From the Top YOU REALLY WON’T BE HAPPY IN A ROOM WITHOUT A ROOF by Donnita Fisher
T
he part of your home most often damaged by turbulent spring weather is the roof. Jon Szilva of Pirate Roofing in Wylie gave us some important information about dealing with your house’s top spot.
How long do roofs usually last? Manufacturer warranties vary from 20-50 years; however, with the weather conditions we experience in Texas, the average life is probably closer to 10-15 (barring no major weather events.) As everyone in Texas knows, our heat can be extremely harsh and a big contributor to shingle life.
Is there anything a homeowner can do to be ready for spring storms? Have a reputable and preferably local roofer do an evaluation of your roof early on. Catching small items like roof penetration boots that have dried out or cracked, missing or damaged shingles or mis-aligned furnace collars can be a good thing to have fixed prior to the rainy season. Something as simple as an exposed nail head or bad plumbing boot could lead to a lot of interior damage and expensive repairs.
What should you look for after a storm? The obvious signs of damage would be any interior stains, bubbles in the paint on walls and ceilings. After heavy winds we recommend walking the perimeter and looking for any shingles in your yard, shingles on the roof that may be sticking up or loose. If you do see something out of the ordinary, call a professional, even a low slope roof can be dangerous to walk on.
What are some things to look for when picking a contractor? We stress this more than anything when it comes to advice! Go local (at least to the Metroplex.) Ask to see a DBA* (essentially a business license in Texas.) Every business has to have one. This will show you the date 12 | THECONNECTION | July/August 2021
they registered as a business (if they registered right after a storm, that’s a red flag.) If they can’t provide a DBA they more than likely never registered with the county. Check references, time in business and overall reputation. * DBA means Doing Business As. It is used by sole proprietorships, not corporations, LLC or partnerships.
What about people who show up in neighborhoods after a storm? There is no state agency that regulates roofing companies, anyone can start and operate at the drop of a dime, close up shop and disappear. Unfortunately, following the storm in 2016 we responded (and still respond to) dozens if not hundreds of calls to address leaks, poor workmanship and second hand material issues after the homeowners could not get a hold of their contractors. The guy knocking on your door is usually not the guy you want to hire. Storm claims are not that hard to decipher for an experienced company and rarely need someone to “fight” for you as some roofers claim. Insurance companies use current market values updated monthly to settle your claim. They may miss something here and there, however don’t feel pressured by the guy that wants to be your negotiator. Lastly, in September 2019, the State of Texas passed a new law regarding deductibles. This is a very important piece of legislation that will affect you after a major storm. Penalties include fines and imprisonment for the contractor and homeowner. All contracts must also have this disclosure on them. The new law reads: “Texas law requires a person insured under a property insurance policy to pay any deductible applicable to a claim made under the policy. It is a violation of Texas law for a seller of goods or services who reasonably expects to be paid wholly or partly from the proceeds of a property insurance claim to knowingly allow the insured person to fail to pay, or assist the insured person’s failure to pay, the applicable insurance deductible.” • w

YOUR HEALTH
Don't Forget About West Nile Virus by Jan Arrant
I
t’s not the virus that has become a household word, but the mosquito-borne West Nile virus remains a danger — and, in some cases, can mimic COVID-19. Most of the time, West Nile virus causes no symptoms, but one in five people infected will develop a flu-like illness known as West Nile fever characterized by a high fever, chills, nausea, vomiting, and headaches. Sound familiar? Not entirely, says Sofia Ansari, M.D., infectious disease physician on the medical staff at Methodist Richardson Medical Center. “Both COVID-19 and West Nile fever can present with similar symptoms,” explains Dr. Ansari. “However, West Nile virus has also been known to cause a rash and neurological symptoms like confusion due to meningitis.” It’s the worst-case complications that really set these diseases apart. For West Nile, those can include paralysis and neuropathy, a dysfunction of the nerves that causes numbness. In contrast, COVID- 19 wreaks havoc on many organs, causing blood clots in the lungs and sometimes strokes.
WHAT IS WEST NILE VIRUS? West Nile virus first arose in Central Africa in the 1930s, but it didn’t reach the U.S. until 1999. In the past two decades, it has spread to every state, sickening thousands of people. In addition to humans, it can infect birds, horses, and some other mammals, usually through the bite of a female mosquito. Very rarely, the virus can spread in transfused blood, a transplanted organ, or through the placenta to a fetus. All blood donations are screened for the virus. The risk of getting West Nile virus from blood is much lower than the risk of not having a procedure that requires a blood transfusion.
WHAT SPREADS THE VIRUS? The mosquitoes that spread West Nile virus to humans become carriers after they feed on infected birds, millions of which are killed each year by the virus. Crows and jays are the most common birds linked to the virus. 16 | THECONNECTION | July/August 2021
But at least 110 other bird species can also carry the virus. The way West Nile spreads is another factor that separates it from COVID-19. “West Nile virus isn’t spread between humans,” Dr. Ansari says. The reverse is also true: There’s no evidence that COVID-19 can be spread by mosquito.
WHO’S AT THE GREATEST RISK Most people who are infected have a minor illness and recover fully. However, some severe cases of West Nile fever can present with a brain infection leading to paralysis and even death. Older people and those with weakened immune systems are more likely to get a serious illness from the infection. What time of year you’re infected can also determine whether you get sick. “You are more likely to get the virus if you are exposed to mosquito bites during the summer months,” Dr. Ansari says.
TIPS TO AVOID WEST NILE VIRUS There’s no vaccine available to prevent the virus, so prevention is your best bet. The CDC recommends taking these steps to prevent mosquito bites and West Nile virus: • Use insect repellent when you’re outdoors. • When possible, wear long-sleeved shirts and long pants. • Consider staying indoors at dawn, dusk, and in the early evening. These are peak hours for mosquito bites, especially those mosquitoes that carry the virus. • Limit the number of places for mosquitoes to lay their eggs by getting rid of standing water sources from around your home. • w Texas law prohibits hospitals from practicing medicine. The physicians on the Methodist Health System medical staff are independent practitioners who are not employees or agents of Methodist Health System.

Inflation Can Be a Scary Word THERE ARE COMPELLING REASONS TO ADOPT A WAIT-AND-SEE APPROACH Provided by Trace Dennis
I
nflation can be a scary word for people who are retired. It’s code for “prices are going up, but my income may stay the same.” The most recent reading on consumer prices put inflation back into the conversation. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose 0.8% in April 2021 and jumped by a greater-than-expected 4.2% year-over-year. April’s increase was led by a 10% increase in used cars, with additional pockets of increases, notably in transportation services and commodities. Core inflation, which excludes the more volatile food and energy prices, was up a more modest 3.0% from April 2020. While there is good reason to be concerned about inflation, there also are compelling reasons to adopt a wait-and-see approach. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell says today’s inflation will be transitory and attributed to the post-pandemic economic expansion. But others are not so certain. Warren Buffett has said price increases are more structural, meaning they are becoming part of the prices we pay every day. Inflation is just one factor considered when creating a portfolio. If inflation starts to trend higher than expected for a period of time, adjustments can be made. For example, if the Fed chooses to raise interest rates to help manage inflation, it may be appropriate to review a portfolio’s bond holdings. Longer-term bonds can be more sensitive to interest rate changes. We are keeping an eye on inflation and understand the concerns of our retired, or soon-to-be retired, clients. We work with professionals who monitor the economy and who can help interpret the recent government reports. But if inflation is starting to worry you, please reach out. We’d welcome the chance to hear your thoughts. • w Trace Dennis may be reached at 972-429-0603 or tracedennis@jaldennis.com.
