Related Posts: Stores & Services
hiGwinnett County announced yesterday that they have removed three companies from their list of approved trash companies. Among them was Red Oak Sanitation. Red Oak is providing services to a large number of Hamilton Mill residents — including my house! Apparently, Gwinnett recently revised insurance & bonding requirements. Red Oak, JC Roadrunner & Quality Waste didn’t make the cut. You can get more details on the story at this link. A complete list of approved service providers is on the Gwinnett Clean & Beautiful website.

Hamilton Mill – Gotta Have a Home Warranty
Related Posts: For Sale By Owner, Real Estate, Stores & Services, Town Manor
hiOne of the questions I am repeatedly asked when I am working with Buyers of resale homes in Hamilton Mill is “Why are you asking for a home warranty in our offer. If this house is as nice as we think why do we need a warranty for it?”
The reasons are simple: Because you need and want it!
As I sit here writing this post, it is 59 degrees in my home because the main level heating system is not working and yes, I too have a warranty on my home. I called the warranty company last night at around 10pm, and expect have someone to the house today to fix it.
In May of 2006, we bought our second home here in Hamilton Mill (The 1st home had a warranty as well) After one year in that house, I calculated that I saved over $6000 dollars in repair costs by having my home warranty. This is the first phone call I have had to make to Old Republic Home Warranty this time around and am curious to find out how much I saved. The original cost of the first warranty I was able to get the seller to pay for, and this years, the cost was on me. $425. Warranties are renewable and I would urge you to seriously consider purchasing a second or third year warranty as well.
Warranty companies typically charge a $50-$100 “Trip Fee” that covers part of the cost but I can tell you it is peanuts in comparison to what the overall cost of one or two repairs would normally have been charged.
Our home was built in 1998 and we had an inspection done prior to purchase but some times things happen to homes the age of mine. Here is a brief rundown of the items that have been covered thus far.
1. Recirculating Hot Water Issue – Savings $800 (First week we were in the home)
2. Lower level AC unit needed replacement – Savings $2100
3. Main level AC exterior unit replaced – Savings $1900
4. Refrigerator Compressor replaced – $500
5. Automatic Garage door thingy replaced – Savings $350
6. Leak from a upstairs bathroom – Savings $250
I will update the savings this time around once we get the heat back on and I can feel my toes.
PS: We also strongly urge our new listings to have a warranty as well once a home is listed for sale. The cost is nothing prior to the sale of the home and many items are covered while you currently are marketing your property.

hiEver been surfing the net on some obscure website and find something that is all about some specific thing that is right in your backyard! I found this neat website that is all about the Good & the Bad of URLs. They had just recently written a post about DaculaDoctors.com and had commented favorably about it. Nice to know that URLs (and websites) can be done well vs. somethingreallystupidllcbbdpdq.com

hiWe’ve found a fantastic new option for birthday parties near Hamilton Mill. My oldest is turning 6 in a few days and we were struggling with plans for the party. Low and behold, just as we were about to hire a magician and rent a “bounce house,” we found out about the Young Chef’s Academy. For about the same price as booking a child’s party at a jumping venue, you can book a Chef’s Party. The kids create, cook and consume their own masterpieces! The package is complete with chef hats, party favors, cake cutting/serving; they will even send out the invitations for you – that’s what I call convenient. The Academy also offers cooking classes for your aspiring chef! Who knows, you may have a Wolfgang Puck, Alton Brown, Bobby Flay or Gordon Ramsay ready to emerge in your very own home. They have multiple locations in Gwinnett County, very close to Hamilton Mill. Visit them at: www.youngchefsacademy.com. The Young Chef’s Academy provides a fresh alternative for your next birthday or kid’s event.

hi
Hamilton Mill Tennis just held their 2nd annual Tennis Extravaganza. This special event raised funds for non-budgeted improvements to the tennis facility. We had 64 players, and over 100 total participants on October 20th. The tennis event was sponsored by Diamond Dwellings and Prince Tennis. Players were divided into 8 “countries” and many sported the colors for their country. Italy was the grand champion, defeating Austrailia in the finals. Food was provided by Antonetta’s, Asian Cafe, Chili’s, Dos Copas, and Log Cabin BBQ. Special thanks to Karen Foley (Simply Tastefully) for the delicious appetizers and munchies. Funds raised will be used for additional shade on court and at spectator areas, and for an online reservation system. The winning team also won a case of tennis balls from Diamond Dwellings!
