(Family Features) Spring is a time of renewaland revitalization, but it’s hard to appreciate allthe invigorating aspects of spring when yourhome still bears months of winter dust and dirt.

Tackle your living space room-by-room for a spring clean thatwill leave you and your home refreshed and ready for a newseason.KitchenAlthough the kitchen is likely the room that gets the most cleaning atten-

tion, there are probably still areas for spring improvements. Cabinets andcountertops make the biggest impression in your kitchen, so give them a

thorough wipe-down, adding polish to the woodwork andnatural stone, and repair any chips or damaged spots. Makeyour appliances look new again by wiping down and scrub-bing hard-to-reach and heavy-use areas like the top of therefrigerator and the stovetop.

They may not be immediately visible, but don’t overlookthe inside of your cupboards. Discard expired food, dam-aged items and wayward pieces, such as lids with nomatching container and vice versa. Finish off the kitchenwith sweeping and mopping for squeaky clean floors.Living AreasThroughout the house, your biggest chore may be remov-

ing clutter. Finding storage solutions or new homes for ac-cumulated items can make rooms seem instantly brighterand more welcoming.

Dusting the blinds, lighting fixtures and fans can add afresh touch, and clean baseboards make for a top-to-bottomclean. Vacuum cushions as well as under and behind all fur-niture, and if necessary, consider shampooing the carpets.Dust all the nooks and crannies, including any decorativeitems and accessories.BedroomsThe closet is a good starting point in the bedroom. Sort

your clothes and discard any you haven’t worn in the pastyear; these can be donated. Also check for any items thatneed repair and set them aside to mend when you take acleaning break.

This is also a good time to put away winter clothing andbring out your spring and summer attire. Additionally, youmay find it helpful to add organization and storage contain-ers to help control items like shoes, handbags and other ac-cessories. As temperatures rise, your bedding needs willchange, as well. Wash and put away blankets you won’t

need until the weather turns cool again. Flip and rotate your mattress for longer wear before you add fresh, light-

weight sheets. While the mattress is raised, you can take advantage of ac-cess under the bed to run the vacuum.

A fresh new pillow will add the final refreshing touch to your spring-readybed. Before you leave the bedroom, don’t forget to pull dressers and otherfurniture away from the walls to vacuum, dust each item thoroughly andwipe down baseboards and blinds or shutters.

Once all your cleaning is complete, take a few extra steps to make yourhome feel extra fresh and clean. On a warm day, throw open the windowsto let the fresh breeze chase away stale winter air and add lightly scentedcandles throughout the house for a home that smells as inviting as it looks.Find more advice to make spring tasks simple at http://elivingtoday.com/

Durability is one reason homeowners choosenatural stone for their kitchens and bathrooms,but the greatest appeal is often the sheerbeauty of the material. Maintaining that lusterand shine requires a bit of effort, but the abilityto enjoy the unique character of natural stonemakes it all worthwhile.

It’s important to understand the shine on granite andother natural stone is not from applying a wax, but a naturalshine that reflects a rigorous process.

After being quarried from the earth’s surface,these stone blocks are taken to a factory for processing.The next step is a polishing line. It’s this factory finish thatenhances the inherent characteristics of natural stone; theveins, swirls and crystals.

From there the slabs are bundled and shipped to localstone manufacturers and installers to be cut to a home-owner’s specifications.

Once installed, you can maintain that luxurious factoryfinish with these tips from the experts at Granite Gold.Clean often-- Even miniscule particles could have a

detrimental effect on your natural stone. However, it’s im-portant to avoid common cleaners and abrasives as theycan break down the protective seal and dull the natural fin-

ish, and result in expensive repairs. Also avoid using anabrasive scrubbing pad, which may leave unsightlyscratches. Rely on scrubbing pads designed specifically fornatural stone or look for “non-scratch” on the packaging.Seal frequently.--Frequently sealing natural stone sur-

faces maintains maximum surface protection, penetratingstone surfaces to provide superior, long-lasting resistanceto staining, etching and soil buildup. It’s easy to test whento reseal.

Pour water (about 3 inches in diameter) on the surfaceand let it sit for 30 minutes. If the water beads, then thestone remains sealed. However, if a dark mark or ring iscreated by the water, it is time to reseal. Be sure to repairany etching or stains before the sealant is applied.Polish regularly--Polishing not only brings out the

stone’s natural beauty, it reinforces the protective seal andprovides ongoing protection against water spots and fin-gerprints. One time-saving but effective solution after seal-ing is Granite Gold Clean; Shine, which provides thecleaning power of the line’s Daily Cleaner and the lusterfrom the Polish in one easy-to-use formula.

Reverse Mortgages Benefit Younger Seniors

(NewsUSA) - Homeowners who are 62 (the youngest eligible age fora reverse mortgage) have an advantage over older seniors when itcomes to getting a reverse mortgage: more time to grow their line ofcredit.

A reverse mortgage line of credit is an adjustable rate loan option thatallows you to draw money as needed. The product is similar to a homeequity line of credit; however, the key differences are that no monthlymortgage payments are required and the available funds increase overtime. You are still responsible for paying your homeowners insurance,property taxes, and home maintenance costs.

Younger seniors have such an advantage with the reverse mortgageline of credit because the earlier you start it, the more time you allowthe available amount to increase. The available amount in your line in-creases by the "growth rate," which is your interest rate plus your mort-gage insurance premium. The growth occurs yearly and compoundsover time.

Given a sufficient time, the available amount could even exceed thevalue of your home.

You are not required to draw any funds at the time you start the lineof credit, and you can draw from the line at any time while the availableamount continues to increase. So, if you need to draw money for anemergency, such as home repairs or medical bills, any amount that isleft over in the line of credit will still grow.

Another benefit? The growth will not be affected by housing marketvalues. That means that even if the value of your home declines, theline will continue to increase.

And because the reverse mortgage is a non-recourse loan, you willnever owe more than your home is worth.

Making an informed decision is most important. The licensed special-ists at One Reverse Mortgage can provide more information, talk to youabout your specific financial goals, and help you determine if a reversemortgage is right for you. So call (888) 980-4839 today to get started orvisit www.onereversemortgage.com/ns to get a free information kit.

Tips for Finding theRight Walk-BehindMower

(Family Features) When it comes to mowing thelawn, the easier you can make the task, the better.Owning the right type of mower is essential.

A walk-behind mower can be a good complementfor someone who owns a lawn tractor or a zero-turnriding mower, or it can be the primary lawn-mowingequipment at a residence.

However, not all walk-behind mowers are created

equal.As homeowners look to purchase a walk-behind

mower for the first time or upgrade from the modelthey have, there are a few things to consider beforepurchasing a new lawn mower.

The first step is understanding the different typesof walk-behind mowers. When it comes to self-pro-pelled, walk-behind mowers, there are generallythree types to consider. All three are ideal for yardsmeasuring up to a half acre.Front-wheel drive (FWD) mowers are designed

for yards with straight pathways and minimal hills.Since the driving wheels are in the front of themower, users can easily tip the front of the mower upand pivot on the rear wheels for maneuvering aroundany yard obstacles.Rear-wheel drive (RWD) mowers are best for

yards with uneven terrain and hills, as well as forthose who frequently bag their grass. The rear-wheeldrive provides excellent traction and is helpful on hillyterrain.Four-wheel drive (4WD) mowers provide the

homeowner with ultimate control. Four-wheel drivehas served as an important feature on many types ofautomobiles, but is now available on select walk-be-hind lawn mowers. Four-wheel drive is ideal for mostterrains, especially larger yards and thick grass.

Selectable four-wheel drive helps users expertlynavigate terrain on virtually any lawn with ease. TheSC 700 with MaxControl is Cub Cadet’s firstwalk-behind lawn mower to come with this feature.Dual-levers let users determine the speed of all fourtires, helping guide the mower across different typesof yards.

The drive control enables selection of front-wheeldrive, rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive for excep-tional versatility. With all three options available on-demand, users can choose the right drive and speedto conquer the demands of the job.

In addition to drive options, there are other areasto consider when selecting a lawn mower, including

Hiring a Contractor?Here’s What to AskBy Tom Kraeutler, The Money Pit

You’ve decided to call in a contractor for your next home renova-tion project, but you haven’t chosen who to hire yet.

How can you make sure you select one that is competent, quali-fied and trustworthy? It’s all in the questions you ask while hiring acontractor.

If you don’t ask the right questions, you could be creating a giantheadache for yourself down the line. Being shortsighted and neglect-ing to conduct a thorough interview of each potential contractor onlyinvites trouble.

According to the National Association of the Remodeling Industry(NARI), their contractor members say these are the most commonquestions they get from homeowners:

• When can you start?• When will you be finished?• What time will you knock on my door each morning?• What time will you quit for the day?• Are you going to work every day?• Can you finish before (insert any major holiday or significant fam-

ily event)? How much will it cost per square foot?However, NARI says these are the questions homeowners should

actually be asking when hiring a contractor:• How long have you been in business?• Who will be assigned as project supervisor for the job?• Who will be working on the project? Are they employees or sub-

contractors?• What is your approach to a project such as this?• How many projects like mine have you completed in the past

year?• May I have a list of references from those projects?• May I have a list of business referrals or suppliers?• What percentage of your business is repeat or referral business?• Are you a member of a national trade association?• Have you or your employees been certified in remodeling or had

any special training or education?

OPEN LETTER TO OUR READERSMilwaukee Community Journal is an actual brick and mortar building, not just an online entity. Iwas downstairs reviewing our equipment in the storage office and it's like visiting a museum. Oldrelics, equipment, computers, software and past editions illuminate 40 years journaling the his-tory of change.

Since our origin in 1976, we've moved with our audience. Today our readers are predominantlymillennials, 18-40 years of age, shakers and movers, the buyers! They are buying homes, cars,raising families. They are eating “fresh,” active in politics, exercising and partying.

Our readers find us in print, with our twice-weekly editions in tenured retail outlets, churchesand selective distribution spots. But they also read us online at milwaukeecommunityjournal.comWe’re in this to win this! We're dynamic....crisp clear....interactive...and to be honest - explodingwith information that you want to read!

We're perfect for new and established advertisers! We want more local interaction and commu-nity written articles. We want to offer more millennial access to a proven community source.

This is who we are. But one thing is still deep on our hearts, and that is you’ve got to join ourteam. You're the community part of the Milwaukee Community Journal. Let's build together!
