10 Tips for maintaining foundations:
1. Make sure that the soil around your foundation is graded so that the water flows away from the foundation. The soil should drop 4 to 6 inches to 4 to 6 feet.
2. Avoid trapping water against your foundation. Water can be trapped against the building by raised flower beds, using metal edging or other borders that do not have openings to allow water to escape, by sidewalks or other obstructions.
3. Place soaker hoses around your foundation to keep the soil damp during dry periods.
4. Keep the majority of the shrubs around your house under 3’ tall. Large plants need large amounts of water, which can cause foundation problems.
5. If you have large trees around your house, and the trees are closer to your foundation that the height of the trees, consider installing root barriers to keep the trees from pulling water out from under the foundation.
6. Use the downspout extensions or splash blocks on all down spots.
7. Make sure that all paved surfaces that border your foundation slope away from your foundation. This is particularly important for pool decks.
8. Keep the soil around your foundation between 2 to 4” below the brick line or edge of your siding. The soil helps to hold the water in the ground and reduces seasonal settlement.
9. If your sewer becomes blocked or backed up, have it tested for leaks. Many times sewer blockages are caused by roots, which mean there are openings in your sewer.
10. Leaking sprinkler lines and pool circulating systems cause foundation problems. Have your systems tested for leaks every 2 to 3 years.
PET REGISTRY
The Pet Registry is ready to go. Attached is the
form to be filled out and returned to enroll
your pet. The sole purpose of the Registry is
to help unite lost or found animals with their
owners. While we all try to keep our pets
inside or in our yards, they can take off
suddenly.
Because of a lost pet listing in another
neighborhood, we were able to unite 2 dogs
with their owner. She was very happy as they
had been missing for most of a week. After
you have completed the registry form, you
can mail it to the address on the form.
The information will then be used to form a
data base. If you lose a pet or find one, an
e-mail to
petregistry@lakeridgeestatesnorth.org
will start the process of getting the pet home.
If the pet is not in our database, an e-mail
will be sent to our neighborhood with the
pertinent information.
New Once A Week Trash and Recycling Pickup System
95% of the people being converted to OneDAY in March will keep their current service location for garbage and recycling collection.
Here s how to confirm your point of service location for OneDAY:
- IF you now have front curb pickup for garbage and front curb pickup for recycling THEN you will KEEP FRONT CURB PICKUP under OneDAY.
- IF you now have alley pickup for garbage and front curb pickup for recycling THEN you will SWITCH BOTH TO FRONT CURB PICKUP under OneDAY.
- IF you now have side street curb pickup for garbage and side street curb pickup for recycling THEN you will SWITCH BOTH TO FRONT CURB PICKUP under OneDAY
- IF you now have alley pickup for garbage and alley pickup for recycling THEN IN MOST CASES, you will KEEP ALLEY PICKUP under OneDAY. Please see this map to confirm.
- Those households being switched from the alley to the curb are indicated by a green dot in the parcel corresponding to address.
- IF your address is not on this map, OR if there is not a green dot at your address location, THEN you will KEEP ALLEY PICKUP.
MAP DIRECTIONS: To see the street and parcel detail easier on the map, zoom to 200%. This map is as of February 2, 2010 and is subject to review. NOTE:
- Front curb is the curb of the street directly in front of your home
- "Side street curb” is the curb of a street which is not directly in front of your home
