My mother took down all of the curtains in our house and washed them by hand or in the washing machine. I thought the washing machine was a metal beast, and actually, it could be dangerous.

The most common advanced carpet cleaning technique is often known as steam cleaning, also known as hot water extraction. Steam is not actually used, hot water is. Steam may actually breakdown the carpet and can cause it to contract. Hot water extraction employs hot water and combines it with a formula that is placed on the carpet by using a sprayer.

If you have the option of building your home, look into hip roofs. This provides a less wind resistant surface and allows the wind to pass by with less strain on the structure. If the hip roof doesn’t appeal to you, you can check in which direction the wind normally blows in your area and position the pitch of your roof to raise the wind like a wedge. This is a much better move than letting the gable of your home catch all the wind. Wind forces against your gables are most likely to cause your roof to fold over like dominoes set up in a pattern and then ultimately blow away.
