Preferred Collision and Glass shares a tip on Icy Road Conditions:

This time of year, road conditions-in Saskatoon and rural Saskatchewan-can be very icy and sometimes, it can even be tough to walk on the road without slipping and falling. Imagine what being on the road with a car is like! A car is both fragile and rugged. One wrong move on an icy road without the proper winter tires might have you in a fender-bender (or the ditch), but as well, a car must be winterized to survive in harsh winter weather conditions.

Driving on interchanges require extra-special attention and focus while driving because these often get salted and sanded less frequently than other main roads. While driving on main roads, such as the downtown core, that are often frequented by pedestrians, take extra care and go slowly in these areas, as these are often the iciest of areas. Sometimes leaving a few minutes early for work in the morning will get you ahead of the morning traffic rush, but sometimes it’s also necessary, for driving slow on icy roads so you’re not in a collision.

When on an icy road, if you feel yourself start to skid, don’t brake and don’t panic. If it is slippery, make sure you pump your brakes, also called “threshold” braking, until you come to a complete stop. Trying to see where black ice is, which is invisible, can be hard to do, so please make an effort to drive slowly and carefully at all times. Remember that if you are in a collision to remain calm

If you are in a collision,  Preferred Collision and Glass will look after all your and your car’s needs, during and after, with our Customer For Life program. Give them a call or visit us at http://preferredcollisionandglass.com so that we can help you out and get you back on the road. Remember, we can’t prevent an accident, but we can make it like it never happened.

Made In The Shade Trusted Saskatoon Window Coverings expert share a tip on Saving Energy with Hunter Douglas Blinds

Trusted Saskatoon window covering experts  Made In The Shade Saskatoon 

Here they share a great tip on Saving Energy with Hunter Douglas Blinds:

In Saskatoon, reality of winter has once again set in as we face temperatures of -40C and worse. It's a time of year where we all struggle to stay warm even in your home.

When the temperature drops and winds rise, your furnace works harder to maintain the temperature in your home.

The good news is that you can help keep your home warm and stylish with the right blinds on your windows. Duette Architella by Hunter Douglas are created with a unique double layered honeycomb shape which dramatically improves the insulation value on your window.

A bare, low-e double-glazed window has an R-value of about 3.5. Add a properly installed Duette Arhitella 1 1/4" honeycomb shade with Panache opaque fabric and the R-value peaks at 7.86, more than doubling the energy efficiency and reducing heat loss by over 50%.

Come to our showroom and learn how to stay warm this winter and save some extra money for the winter holiday you've been planning.

The booking process was quick - she asked me on the phone where I had heard about them.  Was able to get us in in 2 days, gave us a time window in which they would be there and said she would try to see if they could come earlier (and they were able to come about an hour earlier).  He called before he came,  wore covers over his shoes and was clean, friendly and did not smell like smoke (huge deal for me). 

They have a customer loyalty program which he explained to me and then before I paid explained it all again to my husband on the phone. They called the next day to follow up on the appointment and service - I told her that it was one of first times I didn't feel hesitant about a trades person coming to my house and that I felt when he was done that he had actually fixed the problem (felt confident in that). 

My husband and I were so happy with the service that we purchased a lifetime membership for their loyalty program and will be Perfection Plumbing customers for life!
