Body:
When dieting what many people don\’t realize is the health factor when it comes to \”dieting\”. But, we all need to remember that the best trick is to simply change our eating habits.
If you are like many of us, you probably grab something while out running errands or don\’t think about what you put into your body.
1) Start exercising- Yes, although exercise gets boring, starting out slow will help. Pick one or two evenings or days during the week to go walking, set yourself an appointment on the calendar. Just like you do with doctor visits, keep your appointment with yourself. Once you have done this, then begin to add in other exercise that you might enjoy, for example maybe doing yoga one day a week.
2) Drink more water- Many of us have a hard time with this, we don\’t think of how much of an impact water makes on our bodies. But, it does. A good way to get more water, try and keep a bottle with you at all times, even if you are going to the super market, keep a container with you, when you feel thirsty take a sip of water rather than purchasing a soft drink or what ever may be in that cabinet. The more water you drink, the more your body flushes out the toxins that you carry around.
3) Get more sleep- That\’s right a proper amount of sleep is helpful to your body. Getting a good eight hours each night actually helps your body with weight, by getting a proper amount you aren\’t as stressed upon waking and you can actually accomplish more, which helps you burn off those calories.
4) Eat more fruit and veggies- Okay, so you don\’t like those fruits and veggies, but, think of what it can do for your body. You will have an increase in necessary vitamins that help your body burn off more fats. If you have a sweet tooth, reach for an apple or maybe a couple of nice strawberries. By taking care of your sweet craving with fruit, not only do you cut the craving but you give your body much needed vitamins.
5. Since the first day you contacted the contractor how well has he communicated with you? Has he quickly answered all of your questions or concerns?
Communication is very important to most quality professional contractors. This is another indication of the core values, by which he operates. During your project, you will definitely want good communication.
6. Does the contractor carry worker´s comp insurance? Check into this as many companies carry some form of liability insurance but this is not a replacement for worker´s compensation. A simple liability plan will not cover a worker should they be injured on the job.
How well the contractor is covering his team in case of injury is something else to take into consideration. When a contractor has several people paid cash under the table, there is no proof that they work for a particular company and therefore are not covered by any insurance. You could be put at financial risk in a situation like this. Besides this just gives you more insight into the type of Marietta painting contractor you are working with. You are within your rights to call the contractors insurance company to answer some of these important questions.
7. Be sure and check their references. Even though they will give you their best references, you can still get a feel for qualities such as neatness, timeliness, communication, and overall opinion of quality of the job. Keep in mind though, everybody has their own opinion of what constitutes a quality job so don\’t decide based solely on their references.
8. Be leery of the aggressive cut throats, as they are more volume oriented. They have to bang out as many houses as they can to turn any kind of profit. In most cases there aren\’t any core values driving the quality of their work. You only stand to suffer from this type of contractor.
9. Make sure that under no uncertain terms will there be any payment before you have done a walk through with the lead crew member. This is so any areas that need touched up are taken care of before money changes hands. This is an essential part of the deal for you and the painting contractor.
This walk through insures that you are happy with the work and helps to minimize or eliminate warranty issues for the painting contractor, saving the company both time and money. This is the best approach for wrapping up a project and seasoned contractors who are concerned about customer service are aware of this.
10. The following are more obvious things to look at, a business license, unsettled complaints listed with the BBB, how long has the company been around, how many people work for them and a well written contract including warranties.
Always put quality first. Putting a little extra time into qualifying your Marietta painting contractors will pay off handsomely. You will have fewer headaches during the project. You will have a better looking home with a paint job that last longer.
Bon Appetit!
