ikeGPS names Reece Supply Company as First Reseller Partner for US Sign Industry

Saturday, June 13th, 2015


Broomfield, CO (PRWEB) June 02, 2015

ikeGPS (NZX:IKE) is pleased to introduce Reece Supply Company as its first U.S. sign industry reseller partner of Spike.

With Spike, sign makers can quickly capture accurate measurements of the width, height and area of signage locations from a Smartphone or Tablet picture. A ladder, bucket truck and tape measure are no longer required to create estimates, which saves sign companies time and cuts overhead costs on a traditionally lengthy process.

Sign makers can also save measurements on Spike and send dimensions via email to customers or designers to create proofs, assess installation and complete permit applications. If additional measurements are needed, sign makers can refer to their saved Spike photos at any time to make modifications. Theres no need to return to the site for further measurements or estimations.

As a Spike reseller, we can offer our customers a solution that will quickly improve how they conduct business today, says Sean Schultz, general manager of Reece Supply Company in Harahan, Louisiana. Our customers will find that they can streamline their estimating process with Spike, which inevitably saves on labor costs.

For more than 75 years, Reece Supply Company has offered sign shops many of the biggest brands in the industry, including 3M, Arlon, Epson America, GE, Gerber Scientific Products, Mimaki, SA International, Sloan LED and Ultraflex Systems. Reece Supply Company operates eight locations in Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Georgia and North Carolina. Each location houses a large inventory of sign, screen and digital products, and local seminars are available to train and educate signage professionals on new products and techniques.

Were excited to partner with such a well-respected company in the signage industry, says Jeff Ross, chief marketing officer of ikeGPS. For decades, Reece Supply Company has provided sign makers with the industrys most innovative solutions. Reece is once again demonstrating its leadership by introducing Spike to its customers in an effort to help them reduce expenses and run more efficiently.

For live Spike demos, Reece Supply Company will showcase this measurement solution at the Texas Sign Association Annual Conference in Montgomery, Texas, June 9-13, and the Mid South Sign Association Meeting and Trade Show in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, July 23-25.

Northern Virginia Real Estate Company Pasquali Realty Group Offers Home Maintenance Tips For New Homeowners

Saturday, October 11th, 2014


Burke, VA (PRWEB) October 02, 2014

Pasquali Realty Group, a Northern Virginia real estate company asks, whether a new homeowner or one for years, think of keeping the home in top shape. It could prevent costly problems down the road — and assist in getting top dollar when it comes time to sell.

The first thing to do is develop and then implement a maintenance plan.

The Insurance Information Institute, the American Society of Home Inspectors, the National Association of Home Builders, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, Freddie Mac and the U.S. Homebuyer Education Center offer a host of maintenance tips.

Water:

Check visible water pipes and sewer lines for cracks, rusting and leaking; turn on faucets to test water pressure and volume; and look for clogged or sluggish drains or dripping faucets. If pipes are galvanized or steel and the house is old, be sure to check carefully along the entire length of the pipe. Wrap the pipes with heating tape every winter and insulate unfinished rooms such as garages if they contain exposed pipes. Also check for signs of leaking or rusting on the water heater.

Electricity:

Check the electrical system’s load center and see if there are fuses or circuit breakers; also check its age and look for signs of wear or exposed wires.

Heat:

Check the heating system for gas leaks and cracks in the heat exchanger. Maintain the furnace, fireplace, boiler, water heater, space heater and wood-burning stove and have the heating system serviced every year. Clean and vacuum dust from vents, baseboard heaters and cold-air returns.

Gas:

Check all smoke alarms, and carbon monoxide detectors. Change the heating and air conditioning filters. Have the appliances inspected for gas leaks and adequate ventilation.

Insulation:

The attic should be five to 10 degrees warmer than outside air. Check weather stripping and caulking around windows and doors and replace or repair it as needed. Also repair broken glass and loose or missing putty on windows.

Basement/Attic:

Well-insulated basements and crawl spacers will protect the pipes from freezing. Check the basement for signs of water leaking, dampness, flooding, dry rot and termites. Check the attic for signs of leaks and any rodent or insect infestation.

Exterior:

Remove all debris from gutters. Maintain the steps and handrails. Inspect the roof for damaged or loose shingles; gaps in the flashing where the roofing and siding meet vents and flues; and damaged mortar around the chimney (especially at the joints, caps and washes). Inspect the home’s exterior walls, looking for possible weather-related damage like cracks and loose or crumbling mortar.

Pasquali Realty Group is an incorporated business that is a subsidiary under NBI Realty, and is currently licensed in both Virginia, and Washington, DC. They are a member of the National Board of Realtors(NAR), Virginia Board of Realtors(VAR), and Northern Virginia Board of Realtors(NVAR).
