Today we are here to talk about the basics of septic systems here in Iredell County. One of the biggest questions we get is "How do I hook onto the county sewer?" Well, there is isn't one, so you are going to find that you probably have a septic tank. Municipalities or neighborhoods will sometimes run septic systems, but what we are talking about today is septic tanks.

Over the past few years, people haven't been very worried about pumping their systems. However, maintenance has now become an issue. Confirm with a septic tank specialist what you should be doing with yours, as there may be some additional chemicals for you to add in.

Septic systems become an issue with buyers or sellers due to septic permits. Today, they are based on the number of bedrooms in your property, not the bathrooms. Your septic permit tells you how many bedrooms your home is set up for, so we have to be conscious of that and reveal to the public what the permit establishes for your bedrooms.

If you have any questions for us, feel free to give us a call or send us an email. We look forward to speaking with you soon!

I recently found a good video on HGTV that I thought would be helpful to you if you're preparing to sell your home. It's essential that when you show your home to buyers, it's clean, organized, and decluttered. You'll want to empty out your closets, or at the very least, get them organized.

One thing you can do to get organized is put up shoe hangers in your doors, and store everyday items inside them such as cleaning supplies, utensils, or anything else that you can fit in them.

Another way to cut down on clutter is to use labels, or pick up storage bins to keep items like cords or wires in.

A tip for organizing your closet is to divide your clothes into four different sections: hang, sell, donate, keep, and fold. Once you have something marked out for every category, you can then organize your closet in any way you see fit. Here's an extra tip: you can use belt hangers to hang your necklaces and other jewelry.

I just thought this video would be useful for organizing your home, whether you're selling or if you just want to tidy up a bit.
