Beginning, Thursday November 1, 2012, Metro North is resuming trains to the City for the Harlem line from Mt Kisco into the Grand Central and the New Haven line from Stamford to Grand Central.  The Hudson line remains suspended until further notice due to extensive storm damage.   Fares will be free for this Thursday and Friday.   They are trying to prevent people from driving in the City, and would try to avoid it by all means given all the reports on the radio - it was complete gridlock yesterday and most traffic lights are still out.  Right now, by order of the Mayor, only high occupancy vehicles of 3 or more are allowed in cars.  Most people from Westchester take the trains anyway, and I would highly encourage this mode of transportation.  Let's allow them to clear the roads and   I... 10/31/2012

One of the most common questions is I get is "How long does it take to refinish hardwood flooring?"  Smart customers ask this question and plan ahead; those that don't realize the length of time sometimes need to postpone.   First, it all depends on what type of polyurethane you use - oil based polyurethane vs. water based polyurethane (read this article for more info).  The quick synopsis is that oil based polyurethane takes longer and importantly LASTS LONGER (and more people prefer the look of oil based poly and it's less expensive.  So for these reasons, I think it's usually ideal to allow enough time to do oil based polyurethane.   Oil based polyurethane - length of time to refinish hardwood: In general, it will usually take 3-5 days to refinish hardwood floors with an oil based po... 06/05/2012

There seems to be a lot of confusion about the term Berber carpets. Part of the reason for this is modern use of the term berber vs. traditional berbers.  Originally posted at What is Berber carpet? Modern Berber Carpets Modern berber carpets are distinguished by a looped carpet construction, and they usually contain small flecks of darker or lighter shades vs. the background color. The size of the loops can vary. They typically come in neutral colors with no pattern (or a random pattern) and they tend to be less expensive and durable. They are less soft vs. a traditional cut pile or texture carpet you might put in a bedroom. As a result, they are popular for basements, family rooms and steps.  Traditional Berber Carpets Berber carpets get their name from Traditional Berbers which are t... 05/12/2012

Yesterday I got a call from a friend of mine who said his neighbor got ripped off by that large flooring place you see on TV w/ that cartoon character.  She is an older customer and as you know, some places take advantage of customers like this. My friend is in the home improvement business so he knew something was fishy and told her not to worry because I would take great care of her.  I went there this morning, and found a great carpet for her basement and sunroom one that was better quality and importantly one that would be better with her two cats that had shredded the old looped berber carpet that was there.  I helped her find a great color for her room - one that went with the furniture, was neutral in color and would help hide the dirt. She told me that she felt she was overcharg... 03/24/2011

In simplest terms, Serendipity means a fortunate accident. And, that's exactly what happened to me on Wednesday night in White Plains at Haiku.  I went to a Keller Williams happy hour and used my free drink ticket.  And, the person next to me was none other than Sandy Fenton from Active Rain and Mt Kisco NY.  She recognized me right away even though my hair was in a ponytail bun. It was so great meeting her.  She is such a sweet geniune person - just like she seems in her blog.  She always stuck out in my mind on Active Rain because she is in Mt Kisco which is right next to my home town of Chappaqua, so I was always in Mt Kisco, and my how much it's grown since I was a kid. We of course bonded about Active Rain, so that was a lot of fun and it made the evening that much more special.  I... 01/20/2011
