At Williams Fabrication, we believe the inside of your home should be beautiful, bring you joy and peace, but winter will soon be here but is your home ready to take on the bitter cold? Take a look at 3 things you can do to make sure your home is ready for the winter. ‘

Prepare Your Plumbing

Drain the water from your outdoor faucets and garden hoses and arrange to have any in-ground sprinkler pipes blown out. Roll up your hose and store it in the storage – you won’t be needed it during the winter. Be sure to do this because when temperatures drop below freezing, if you leave the water in your hose they could freeze and burst. If the worst happens, ensure everyone in the family knows how to turn off the water at the source. This will minimize leaking when and if a pipe bursts.

Heat Things Up

It’s almost time to snuggle up next to the fire. Ensure your fireplace is ready to provide warm nights all winter. Be sure to have the chimney inspected and cleaned by a professional before the first snow. Also, be sure to have a routine inspection completed on your heating system before turning it on.

Seal The Deal  

In order to keep cold drafts down this winter, you must SEAL the deal by sealing any leaks in window seals, entry ways and doors – don’t forget windows in the basement. Add or replace worn weather stripping around the doors and windows and caulk any gaps. If doorstops are worn, replace them.

Quartz solid surfaces are also sometimes referred to as engineered stone and are taking homeowners on a new journey. Their attractive appearance and durability are just two of the reasons many homeowners are talking about quartz solid surfaces, but take a look at why we love quartz at Williams Fabrication.

Wide Color Selection

Quartz is a manufactured product which allows a wide range of colors for customers to choose from. The Color selection is much wider than ones you’ll find in granite or marble solid surfaces.

Durability

This manufactured stone also has the same durability as concrete and granite, however, it will not chip or crack as easily. Quartz is also non-porous so it resists staining to juice, oil, wine, tomato, coffee and other sources of stains in the kitchen much better than granite, marble and concrete.   

Theses are just a couple benefits of quartz solid surfaces. If you’re interested in learning more about the benefits of a quartz solid surface, stop by the showroom in Woodstock, Georgia,  Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.,  and ask one of our friendly team members; we’re more than happy to assist you with finding the perfect surface for you.

Fall is in full swing and Halloween is right around the corner. At Williams Fabrication, we love to encourage our customers to embrace their creative side. So just in case you’ve waited and haven’t decorated your lawn just yet, we’ve put together some cool ideas that are easy to put together at home. Check them out.

Make Use Of Your Potted Plants

One of the easiest things to decorate for Halloween are your potted plants. Whether it’s just a simple homemade spider web, plastic bugs crawling in the plant or a fake hand protruding from the soil of the plant. There are so many ways you can incorporate your plants into the decoration.

Decorate Your Fence

Your fence can be easily incorporated into a Halloween decorative scene but can also be easily forgotten. Decorating your fence is similar to decorating your pots in the sense that you have many decorative options and visions you can explore. Whether you’re wanting to make your fence look old and worn, spider infested or splattered with blood (fake blood, of course), your fence can be a great prop in decorating for Halloween.

Homemade Blow-up Pumpkins

Turn a yard full of leaves into a pumpkin family in little to no time. Simply buy some trash bags that have a pumpkin face on them (these are often available at the supermarket during the fall) and stuff them with leaves! The more bags of leaves you have – the bigger your pumpkin family will be. It’s an easy way to efficiently clean and add personality to your yard.

So whether you’re looking to make your yard look spooky, scary or friendly this Halloween, these ideas are definitely great places to start. Embrace your creativity this holiday season and let it show in your lawn. Happy decorating!

Fall is in full swing and the Williams Fabrication team has lined out a few outside home Fall maintenance projects you want to take care of while the weather is mild.

Be sure to clean your gutters and downspouts. Make sure all drainage areas are unblocked by leaves and debris. Gutter guards are also a great way to make this job a lot easier.

Inspect your roof, or hire a licensed professional to examine your roof for wear and tear, and if the shingles on your roof are worn, take advantage of the mild Fall weather by replacing them now. Also check the flashing around skylights, pipes and chimneys for leaks or gaps. You don’t want any heavy ice and or snow to find its way in!

Run the water from your outside hose until the pipes are empty, then turn off the valves to the exterior hose bibs to prevent exterior water pipes from bursting when the weather gets below freezing. If not, the water can freeze up when the temperatures drop to below freezing and damage the pipes.

Caulk and refill the holes or completely replace the wood around your windows,doors, railings and decks. By doing this process you’ll be closing any air gaps that may have formed over time. Make sure you’re home is ready for the Fall and Winter seasons before it’s too late.

When homeowners decide to remodel their home, many want to add flare and value to their home no matter what color they have in mind for their color scheme, but some colors just don’t go together and ultimately take away from your home’s potential gross value. At Williams Fabrication, we want our customers to get the most for their money and make the most of their home, so we’ve put together a quick list of a few color schemes you want to stay away from.

Orange and Green

These colors can easily be called the “carrot colors.” They aren’t very visually pleasing making it hard to look at.  

Light Blue and Purple

If you’re anything like us, these colors remind you of berries. They can go well in a child’s room but not in the living room.

Brown and Yellow

What is the first thing that comes to mind when you see brown and yellow? Think about it. Yes, bananas. These colors together aren’t very visually pleasing.

Some of these colors may have been no surprise to you while some may have peaked your interested. Either way, now when you decide to remodel your home you will be sure to make the most of your home’s value.

Materials You’ll Need

Isopropyl alcohol

Instructions

1. Wet a cloth – Be sure to wet the towel with warm water thoroughly with mild dish soap.

When cleaning your granite countertop, make sure the countertop is sealed. To do this you would leave a few drops of water on the surface and if the water beads up, you have a sealed granite countertop, however, if the water soaks into the countertop, it is time to have the stone resealed. Be sure to not to use harsh or abrasive cleaners and sponges. Cleaners like Windex, and acidic cleaners like vinegar, lemon, lime, or anything with ammonia or bleach.
