Project Spotlight: Small Projects that Create the Biggest Smiles
One of the things I enjoy most about this work is that every appointment is different. Sometimes the project is about improving safety, sometimes it is about preparing for guests, and sometimes, it is simply about helping create a special moment for a family.
Recently, a busy single mom reserved a 2-hour time block to take care of a few projects around her home. The main request was to install six floating shelves in her daughter's room so she would finally have a place to display her growing collection of rubber ducks.
After the shelves were securely installed, her daughter carefully had me arrange every duck exactly the way she wanted them. Seeing how excited and proud she was of her new display was easily the highlight of the appointment. It was one of those reminders that even a simple project can make a house feel a little more like home.
With time still remaining in the appointment, I also tested every smoke detector throughout the home to make sure they were functioning properly and replaced the home's furnace filter. Those are easy tasks to postpone when life gets busy, but they are important for keeping a home safe and running efficiently.
One of the advantages of reserving a time block is the flexibility it provides. Once the primary project is complete, we can often move on to other items that have been waiting on the to-do list, helping homeowners accomplish more in a single visit. Thank you to this family for trusting Bama Lifestyle Services with their home. Because life is better when you have a little more breathing room.
