Stay Safe In the Kitchen and On the Road

We want your holiday to be joyful and as stress-free as possible. While the day is typically filled with football, family, and food, Thanksgiving is also known as a day of increased dangers on a couple of fronts:

  • Thanksgiving Day is the leading day for home cooking fires. Be sure to follow safe cooking practices in the kitchen.
  • Thanksgiving Day and the weekend are among the busiest travel days of the year, heightening the risk of accidents. If you’ll be on the road, be sure to give yourself plenty of time and remember road safety tips. Driving becomes routine, so it never hurts to think about what it takes to stay safe. Even if you’re being safe, you must watch out for others who might not be as responsible.

However you choose to spend the holiday, we want you to be safe! The Murphy family and the Agency team wish you and yours a bountiful and happy Thanksgiving.

Ice Dams: A Winter Challenge for Homeowners

Read our blog post, Ice Dams: A Winter Challenge for Homeowners for some great tips on preventing ice dams and what to do in the case of ice dams on your roof. Ice dams are more than just an inconvenience—they can cause significant damage to your home. While prevention is the best strategy, ice dams can still form despite your efforts, so having a response plan is crucial. Ice dams occur when attic air warms to above freezing, causing snow on the roof to melt. As the water runs down the roof and reaches the colder edges, it refreezes, creating an ice dam. These dams block water from draining off the roof, causing it to pool and seep under shingles, into the attic, or along exterior walls.
