If you have a water or plumbing problem call the Town of Cary utilities department. They will determine who is responsible for the cost of repair. The Town takes care of the pipe and cleanout (vertical piece) that is within the easement/or public right of way for lines going to the sewer in the street. The homeowner is responsible for problems that are located within their property line, which can include additional cleanouts if the run of the pipe is more than 50 feet or has turns.

Brickman Notes ??Spring is on its Way?? As we get into February, we get closer and closer to the best time of the year – SPRING!!! Our list of work items this month concentrates our efforts on an awesome year. We are preventing weeds in the lawn and beds, performing our winter pruning and improving the health and vigor of the plants. Spring is the time for pruning Crape Myrtles – our standard practice is to remove crossing branches and to prune the tree for proper growth habits – we do not perform Crape Murder! Crape murder is cutting back of the tree to stubs – doing this can cause floppy growth during the summer and eventually this floppy growth will break due to the winds and rains that we receive in the summer. Spring is also a great time for “resizing & shaping” your plants. Hard pruning plants in the late winter give the plants a chance to use the first spring flush to fill back in. On February 9th at 9:30 in the Club house we will be conducting our annual meeting with all of the home owners to discuss pruning & lawn care. We will also review and inform all in attendance our processes for pruning and detailing the properties throughout the community. This will be a great opportunity to better understand our systems for maintaining the property. In this meeting you will also have an opportunity to update your OPT IN / OPT OUT plans for your property. We look forward to seeing the entire community! As always, thank you for trusting your landscapes to us, and let us know if you have any questions! The Brickman Team |
