Fall is the time for Halloween, Thanksgiving and vivid autumn colors. It's also pumpkin time and thanks to Steve's unique parents, HPS has a great source for fun and unique, fall pumpkins.

As of July 1, all California residents with single-family homes that have appliances that burn fossil fuels or have attached garages or fireplaces must have a carbon monoxide alarm.

HPS has made a special purchase of First Alert’s digital, plug-in/battery CO alarms. While supplies last, we will offer to install the unit in your garage, bedroom wing or both places at a special price of $45 on your next Maintenance Visit

At HPS we receive a lot of requests for information about gutters and how to best take care of them. Rain gutters are quiet but critical components of a building’s roofing system. They have the important job of capturing rainwater at the roof edge then controlling and directing it away from the structure.

Do you know what dangers lurk in the hidden recesses of your home?

Even beautiful and expensive homes can hide ugly secrets where their owners cannot see. Here are some examples of typical yet startling things HPS has uncovered during the quarterly servicing of our clients homes. These homeowners had no idea of the problems that were silently lurking in the dark.

Don't let this happen to you. Home Preservation Services helps reveal hidden issues so they can be dealt with before they become major problems.

If neglected even briefly, these seemingly minor areas can create MAJOR headaches. HPS's Maintenance Program monitors the “weak link” areas of your home that can dramatically affect safety, efficiency and durability…so you can sleep better at night.
