A Message to the Triplex Community To Our Valued Guests: We wanted to take a minute to check in with you all regarding the current COVID-19 situation.

As you may be aware Governor Baker has banned all gatherings of 25 people or more and halted the service of on-premises food and beverages through April 5, 2020.

Here at the Triplex Cinema we have always strived to be a community theater. Our purpose over the years has been to bring together our community and provide a place where people can gather, relax, and escape from the hassles of daily life, if only for an hour or two at a time.

It is with a heavy heart and the community’s best interests in mind that effective, Monday, March 16, 2020, the Triplex Cinema will be temporarily closing through at least Thursday April 9th. We will be re-evaluating our closure as the situation continues to unfold and plan reopening as soon as is reasonable given the situation. Our March 31, 2020 showing of In Search of Haydn will be postponed, but we hope to reschedule as soon as we are able to, for any assistance with refunds or exchanges please either email us or stop by the theater once we re-open.

During this time we will not be disappearing altogether. Please keep in touch with us via our Facebook & Twitter pages and our weekly newsletter for updates. Stay safe and be well!

- Triplex Management & Staff

Property Management Landscaping & Property Care Painting & Light Carpentry Storm Damage & Clean Up’s Dependable & Reliable Service

Exterior renovations can enhance the appearance of a property and make it more enjoyable for homeowners. Certain renovations have the potential to add value to a home, while others may do the opposite. Learning which one have the largest return on investment can help homeowners select features that will have the most positive impact.

Curb appeal goes a long way toward attracting potential buyers. According to the National Association of Realtors, ďŹ rst impressions of a property have a strong inuence on buyers. Landscaping and external features can do much to inuence such impressions.

Lawn care program: Investing in a lawn care program that consists of fertilizer and weed control application and can be transferred over to a subsequent home owner is an attractive feature. NAR says such a care program can recover $1,000 in value of the $330 average cost, or a 303 percent ROI. Low-maintenance lifestyle: When choosing materials for projects, those that oer lowmaintenance beneďŹ ts can be preferential. These include low-maintenance patio materials, composite decking, vinyl fencing, and inorganic mulched beds.

All Types of Excavation Driveways built and repaired

Sand • Stone • Gravel and Topsoil Subdivisions • Sewage & Septic Systems Specializing in Residential & Commercial Fully Insured Hatchery Road Hartsville, MA

Softscaping: Hardscaping refers to structures like outdoor kitchens or decks. Softscaping involves the living elements of the landscape. Hiring a landscape designer to install trees, shrubs, natural edging, and rock elements can do wonders toward improving the look and value of a home.

Pool or water feature: In certain markets, particularly hot climates, a pool or another water feature is a must-have. However, in other areas where outdoor time is limited, a pool or water feature can actually lower the value of a home. Speaking with a real estate professional can give homeowners an idea of how a pool will fare in a given neighborhood.

Outdoor improvements can improve the marketability of a home, as well as enhance its appearance and function.

Fire pit: A ďŹ re pit can be used for much of the year. In the spring and summer, the ďŹ repit is a great place to congregate to roast marshmallows or sip wine and gaze into the ďŹ re. In the fall, the ďŹ re pit can make for a cozy retreat. A ďŹ re pit that has a gas burner is low-maintenance, and the National Association of Landscape Professionals says that most can recoup about $4,000 of their $6,000 average price tag.

Investing in a home renovation project not only requires money, but also time and patience. While contractors, architects and designers can estimate how long a project may take, it is impossible to anticipate all of the scenarios that can aect that estimated timeline. An average kitchen remodel involving installation of new countertops, cabinets, appliances, and oors can take three to six months.

But if ductwork, plumbing or wiring must be addressed, the job may take longer. A midline bathroom remodel may take two to three months.

Adding a room to a house can take a month or two.

The home improvement resource Renovation Junkies oers similar estimates, with the average home renovation taking between four and eight months.

Homeowners need to consider time when planning their home projects.
