McClurg Remodeling & Construction Services May 2010 Newsletter |
Greetings!
May should be designated as "Home Maintenance Month" in Central New York! This is the time to get outdoors and do seasonal maintenance on decks, patios and porches. It's also time to paint the exterior of your home, do roof repairs, wash windows, open the pool and clean off the grime of winter.

Their dedication and sacrifice should never be forgotten by those who live in freedom and democracy. The McClurg Team |
