You may be wondering how to protect your home from UV exposure that’s potentially harmful. Luckily, there are plenty of ways to protect yourself and your home from excess UV exposure. Here’s a basic guide to help:
Excessive exposure from the sun can severely damage roof tiling, blister exterior paint and even cause cracks on the home exterior. Hardwood floors also risk potential fading if left vulnerable to too much visible light through windows.
There are several safe and affordable ways to protect your home from harmful UV light. If you have hardwood flooring, try using finishes and stains with UV inhibitors. Also, consider low-E window films to block extra UV rays from entering your home. High quality exterior paint will help to extend the life of your home’s paint job as well.
The sun’s rays can also be used to your advantage at home. Installing solar panels will provide clean and renewable energy through sunlight alone. This will help to save plenty of money on your energy bill. You can even earn a federal tax credit for having solar panels.
These are just a few tips for limiting your home’s UV exposure. Consult a professional contractor for more information on how to keep your home safe.
Welcome to Long Island Living at its best! The South Shore of Suffolk County is a suburban area that runs along the shoreline of the Atlantic Ocean. Homes in this area consist of primarily residential properties. This area tends to be diverse in culture and income as it varies by hamlet, village or town. Residents along the South Shore have access to many beaches, parks and recreational activities. I pride myself on my honesty, integrity, hard work and personal service. My first career was in education, starting as a teacher then finishing as a guidance counselor and achieving my Master’s and two PD's. In 1986, I began my real estate career. In a sense, I am still an educator and offering guidance; this time I am outside of the classroom educating my clients on the selling and purchasing processes; which have become so complicated recently and guiding them safely through the confusing and ever-changing real estate market. It is very satisfying to me to help people with not only the greatest financial asset in their lives but their greatest emotional asset; where they celebrate holidays, raise their families and live their lives. I take the needs of my clients very seriously and as a result, I am proud to say, over 90% of my sales are the result of referrals and recommendations. Primarily, my areas of service are the Townships of Babylon and Islip on Long Island’s beautiful South Shore, near pristine beaches and wonderful boating, yet only 55 minutes from Manhattan; truly the best of both worlds. I'm a graduate of the Real Estate Institute and am certified as a Senior Real Estate Specialist. I also hold a license as a Notary Public. Please feel free to call or visit so I can help you fulfill your real estate dreams.
