(ARA) - Are you keeping your home longer than you expect-ed, due to the sluggish and uncertain home-resale market? If you are, you’ve got company. Only 43 percent of homeowners believe they would get their asking price if they sold today, according to the latest American Express Spending & Saving Tracker.

That lack of confidence, coupled with interest rates on per-sonal savings accounts that are at or near record lows, has a lot of homeowners investing in their homes instead of depositing money in their banks.

In fact, nearly two-thirds of homeowners will be remodeling in 2011, says American Express. Improving your home can be a smart strategy over the long run. In the meantime, it can make your home more comfortable and convenient while you’re liv-ing there.

Now is the time to ask yourself if putting your hard-earned savings into your house is right for you. You won’t see the return on your investment in the near-term, but when you fac-tor in a quicker sale or higher sale price, you could end up with more profit than savings account interest rates can provide.

Improvements that payExperts recommend that you stick to improvements likely to

increase your home’s resale appeal and value. There’s no such

thing as a guaranteed return on investment, but some home improvements have a better value track record than others. A basement remodel will recoup 70 percent of its cost at resale, according to the 2010-2011 Remodeling Magazine Cost vs. Value Report. Adding a bathroom returns more than 53 percent of your investment, while modernizing a kitchen can bring back 72.8 percent.

• Build a bath: If you plan to install a bathroom, laundry or wet bar in an area that lacks below-floor plumbing drainage, you can dramatically reduce your installation costs with mac-erating technology. Installing drainage in a basement, attic or garage can be messy, time-consuming and expensive. But with macerating, or up-flush, technology, you can have plumbing virtually anywhere in your home, without breaking through floors or jackhammering concrete.

Unlike conventional gravity plumbing, up-flush systems pump waste and water from toilets, showers, sinks, wet bars and washing machines upward. Small-diameter piping carries the waste into the sewer or septic tank. For more information on this cost-effective plumbing option, visit www.saniflo.com.

Want to make your new bath seem larger? Let the light in! If a skylight isn’t in the budget, use recessed ceiling lights and large mirrors.

Why a home remodel may be better than a savings account


(ARA) - It may not be winter yet, but do not wait for it to arrive to start getting the house ready for the coldest months of the year.

Preparing a home for winter will take time and should not be rushed. Neglecting certain projects or carelessly completing them can lead to major sys-tem failures, extensive damage and in extreme cases even health problems.

“Procrastinating can cost you when it comes to getting ready for winter,” says Rhonda Hills, of Kudzu.com. “Systems that are not ready for heavy use can fal-ter or even fail. This can be a recipe for disaster.”

The home experts at Kudzu.com rec-ommend the following actions to get the home ready for the cooler temperatures ahead.

Have the chimney inspected and cleaned - If you have a wood-burning fireplace, the inside of the chimney can be a dirty place, and this has the potential

to cause some problems if not addressed. Over time a combustible material called creosote can build up on the inside of the chimney. If not regularly removed, this substance can catch fire, causing major damage to the home and resulting in serious injuries or even death. Chimneys should be inspected and cleaned by a professional at least once a year to ensure all creosote is removed and the chimney is ready for use.

Get the furnace serviced - Heating sys-tems will be putting in a lot of overtime as the temperatures plummet, and it is important to have them serviced so they can handle the load. Well maintained sys-tems will operate more efficiently, which lowers heating costs. They will have a longer lifespan too. During an inspec-tion, the heating expert will evaluate and clean the heat exchanger, ensure the burners and pilots ignite properly, clean the system’s blower and more.

Seal all air ducts - Air ducts can be

punctured, torn or become disconnected, all of which will cause heated air to spew into the attic, basement or crawl-space before it reaches the home’s inte-rior. These leaks waste a lot of energy and can cause heating bills to be much higher than they should be. To ensure all of the heated and cooled air that is being paid for makes its way into the living space, patch and repair all ducts as soon as possible

Add insulation - According to the U.S. Department of Energy, 80 percent of homes built before 1980 are not well insulated, so chances are your home is not as insulated as it should be. Adding insulation is one of the fastest, cheapest ways to retain heat and save on heating bills. Insulation is available in a variety of materials and is rated by R-values, or how well the insulation resists the trans-fer of heat. Insulation needs will vary by region and are dependent on local climate conditions and heating costs.

ARA

A well-insulated attic can reduce your winter energy costs.

(ARA) - Want to “wow” guests with your culinary skills and the beauty of your kitchen? You’re not alone. Enhanced kitchen designs aimed at allowing hom-eowners to show off their advanced cooking techniques are one of the hottest kitchen trends.

Homeowners are tuning in to TV shows that showcase chefs competing for top honors, and designers upgrading old and run-down rooms into fabulous new living spaces. Modern kitchens are incorporating more of the elements chefs use in restaurants, and designers are giv-ing kitchens plenty of function and style so that it’s a place to show off and gather with family and friends.

“Innovative modern designs reinvent the way people live at home in the modern world,” says Miyoko Ohtake, editor at Dwell Media, a leader in the modern design movement for more than 10 years. “Cooking, finances, homework and socializing are based more and more in the kitchen, requiring these rooms to have both function and style.”

The Dwell on Design conference held

this summer featured innovative design trends from industry professionals, including LG’s Studio Series.

Dwell recommends trends you can incorporate into your kitchen remodel or build to give it sophisticated style, yet also make it operational:

• Incorporate bold colors in unex-pected places. For example, pop your sink or cabinets out with a striking color against more neutral countertops, walls and floors. This trend makes the kitchen visually appealing, arresting the eyes in different locations.

• Recycling has gone beyond just hiding containers for aluminums, plas-tics and paper under the kitchen sink or in a closet. More modern kitchens are incorporating recycled content in the design and build. From flooring to countertops to light fixtures, the opportunities to make kitchens green are endless.

• Built-in appliances are the rage because they add to the beauty of the room, rather than interrupting the design. Some of the newest built-in

products like the Studio Series contain professional grade features on ovens, ranges and refrigerators that aren’t tra-ditionally found in private kitchens. For example, LG’s UltraHeat feature is one of the most powerful burners on a freestanding range, making it easier to achieve great cooking results with gour-met meals. And LG’s oven InfraGrill sys-tem utilizes infrared heating elements to keep food juicier than traditional ther-mal cooking does.

• Choose products that combine pro-duction and entertainment. There are many gadgets that do double duty. For example, sink covers allow users to extend countertop space and cabinets can hold dishes, but also have built-in speakers for a complete surround sound experience in the kitchen.

Designing the ultimate kitchen experi-ence in your home can be very reward-ing for your family, Ohtake says. “And with your new culinary techniques, and the right kitchen ambiance, you’ll be entertaining in grand style for many years to come.”

Go state-of-the-art in your kitchen


(ARA) - Who could forget the challenges of last winter? The 2010/2011 winter season went down in the record books as one of the coldest and snowiest for many parts of the United States. Snowstorms shattered such major cities as New York City in December and January to create the snowiest January ever recorded and, in the process, left thousands of people stranded, not just at airports but in their own driveways. With snow continuing to accumulate faster than many people could clear it using traditional snow removal methods, many people were stuck at home, unable to get to work or even to the gro-cery store.

Unfortunately, in looking at forecasts for the coming winter season, it appears that many Americans may again be facing the same challenge. According to AccuWeather.com, even though temperatures may be milder this year, there will be plenty of white stuff to get in our way, starting already in December and, in some areas, as early as November. Among the cities cited for above-normal snowfall this year are Chicago, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, Detroit, Cleveland, Omaha, Seattle and Portland.

The good news, despite the dismal forecast, is that there are more and better choices when it comes to snow removal options today. That’s especially good news for the estimated 76 million baby boomers now living in the United States who benefit the most from ergonomically designed products that have the greatest potential to ease aching backs and joints and put less strain on the heart.

Snow blowers are available in a wide array of sizes and configurations and eliminate the need to shovel. The electric

versions are more limiting as a result of the cord and only work for smaller properties. Gas or electric, the problem still remains that if the snow blower won’t start, you will likely be late for work.

Also helpful are the newer de-icing products which, when sprayed on the pavement prior to snowfall, can actually help prevent hard ice from forming. Even snow shovels have evolved.

Many today feature deep scoops manufactured from light polyethylene and curved handles for less back strain. The newer snow sleighs or pushers also help eliminate the need to lift heavy snow.

For homeowners with longer driveways, however, many of these options are not practical as they still require too much time and can overstrain the back and cause excessive exposure to the frigid temperatures. For these people there is a smarter option that became available around the same time that last year’s winter wallop hit. The HomePlow by Meyer, which this year is available in three different models starting as low as $2,399, offers a number of unique advantages that make more traditional snow removal tools obsolete.

The simple-to-install and operate HomePlow easily mounts to any standard SUV, light pickup truck or utility vehicle to allow even the longest driveways to be cleared in a matter of minutes. A primary appeal, especially when compared with shoveling or use of a snow thrower or tractor plow, is that the HomePlow is operated from the inside of the vehicle. This allows users to safely and comfortably clear their driveways via a remote control without exposure to the cold and snow.

Think smart when removing snow

A snow blower is a good option to have available in winter.

(ARA) - Whether you are upgrading a kitchen, adding on a master suite, or gutting a newly purchased structure, you need to reassess your insurance needs both before and after your renovation.

It’s common to plan every major step of the renovation. But one thing that’s tough to plan for is the unexpected. What if an oily rag left unattended starts a fire and your home goes up in smoke? The remodeling work done to date may have an impact on your homeowners insurance - unless you let your insurance agent in on the plans ahead of time.

For example, Fireman’s Fund Insurance Company policy-holders are required to let their agent know about any renova-tion projected to increase the replacement cost of your home by more than $25,000 in order for the crucial full-cost replace-ment coverage to remain in force.

“Your insurance company and your agent can help you find gaps in your coverage related to remodeling and establish appropriate replacement costs,” says Don Soss, vice president of personal insurance at Fireman’s Fund. “We can also make sure your contractor and subs have adequate liability insur-ance in case of damage to your property from poor workman-ship or carelessness.”

In addition, risk managers at the insurance company can provide advice to minimize the possibility of fires, theft, and

mishaps. Good risk management practices also minimize potential project delays. This may be a good time to add secu-rity and safety features such as water flow monitoring devices or upgraded burglary and fire alarm systems.

One of the most common issues is maintaining a secure environment during the work phase. For example, contractors often disable a home’s existing fire alarm system because dust and particulates generated by construction tend to trigger false alarms. It is important for temporary measures such as fencing and alternate alarms to be in place to keep the property secure.

Demolition debris should also be secured so it can’t become airborne in high winds. Toxic or explosive materials need to be stored and handled appropriately, and rebars should be capped to prevent injury to workmen and residents.

Often, the family moves to temporary housing during a remodel. It may be a good idea to put art collections and other valuables that could be damaged in an offsite secure storage facility for optimal protection.

Even before your work is complete, your agent can go over your current homeowners insurance and make sure you have the replacement value of your home updated. This will reflect increases in construction materials and labor, changes in build-ing codes, installation of new safety devices, changes in square footage, and custom features and appliances.

When you renovate your home, be sure to renovate your insurance

(ARA) - As seasons change, homeown-ers’ routines change along with them. Whether it’s children coming in and out of the house more frequently between school and activities, or service workers helping to get home repairs done before the holidays, you want to ensure safe and controlled access when you’re not available.

One recent “Key Hiding Habits” sur-vey of homeowners in St. Louis found that respondents hide extra keys for such purposes in all kinds of places, from beneath a flowerpot to under the bushes - yet among those who do, about one fifth don’t recall where they hid the key, leading to an opportunity for a lockout situation. In fact, getting locked out of the house happens more than you’d think. Over a 12-month period, a quarter of those polled were locked out at least once and a smaller number twice. Believe it or not, some were locked out five times or more.

To ensure worry-free home security, there are simple things you can do to help ensure that the right people can

enter your home, and also deter those you want to keep out of your home. Here are some home security tips:

• Go keyless. Avoid keys entirely by upgrading to an electronic keypad door lock, eliminating any worries about lost keys or the need to keep making replacements. Electronic locks provide keyless entry to a home using secure access codes, so there’s no more hiding of keys in places where the wrong person might find them.

For example, Schlage electronic locks can be installed quickly with just a screwdriver and allow you to add, change or delete user codes in seconds, ensuring that the people you want to enter your home can come and go as they please. You can also create a temporary code for someone such as a plumber or pet-sitter who needs to enter and exit while you’re away. To learn more, visit http://www.keyless.schlage.com.

• Use motion sensors. In the fall and winter months of the year it’s espe-cially helpful to have a light on for

family members and others who need to leave or come home in the dark. One way is to leave the porch light on, but you can take lighting a step further by installing motion-activated lights. Available in home improvement stores, these lights can be installed at your entry door or by the garage door, and will turn on automatically when a person or car approaches, ensuring a well-lit entry to your home and mak-ing it harder for intruders to hide in waiting.

• Make your home look lived in. If you keep the drapes and shades closed during the day, it can give an unin-tended signal to burglars that you’re not home, so go ahead and leave the windows uncovered as if you were there. Turn down the ringer on your home phone, as well as the volume on the answering machine - while you’re away at work, dashing back and forth between activities, or even if you’re simply working in the garden or back-yard - as these sounds can be a signal to others that no one’s inside.

The ins and outs of home security

(ARA) - As winter approaches and the outdoor temperature drops, energy consumption is on the rise. Homeowners can implement these five tips to help reduce their home’s energy use and costs, yet maintain a warm and comfortable indoor environment, this winter.

Energy auditIf you want to reduce your home’s energy costs, a home

energy assessment or audit is a good place to start. While many homeowners can observe obvious air leaks on their own, a pro-fessional energy auditor will go into greater detail, checking a home’s exterior and interior room-by-room, for undetectable energy wasters. A professional will also review your recent utility bills before recommending ways to decrease household energy consumption. Many electric or gas companies provide professional energy assessments or can recommend a local auditor.

LightingDuring the winter, people tend to use more artificial lighting

to make up for the decrease in daylight. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, switching from incandescent light bulbs to more efficient compact florescent bulbs (CFLs) or light emit-ting diodes (LEDs) can save up to $50 a year in energy costs. Another easy way to reduce energy consumption during the winter holiday season is to use a timer on your festive decora-tive lights. Your local home improvement stores should carry a

variety of inexpensive timer models to choose from.Indoor heating

It’s tempting to turn up the heat when the weather cools; however, during the winter months, you can save as much as 3 percent of heating costs for every degree your thermostat is lowered. A professional heating and cooling contractor can recommend and install a programmable thermostat like the AccuLink(TM) Platinum ZV Control from American Standard Heating & Air Conditioning that allows homeowners to create heating schedules for when no one is home ensuring greater energy efficiency and enhanced indoor comfort. Learn more at www.americanstandardair.com.

InsulationAdding more insulation where you already have some,

in your home’s attic, for example, will help to save energy. However greater energy savings are often found when install-ing insulation into places that are not currently insulated. A home energy auditor can help identify how much insulation you currently have and how much you need, in addition to which type of installation to install.

During the winter, energy costs can make a big dent in the family budget; however, there are a few easy things you can do to lower your home’s energy consumption. Find comfort and joy in your home this season by reducing energy costs and efficiently heating your home.

(ARA) - Most homeowners do not think about their roof on a daily basis. They assume that it is performing its duty unless something happens that tells them otherwise, such as a leak. Realistically, there were probably signs of roof trouble well in advance. Luckily, there are some easy tasks that can be done to help you keep an eye on the condition of your roof so your home and investment are properly protected.

Do-it-yourself visual inspectionWith all types of home maintenance, safety is paramount.

The following five actions can be done safely and help deter-mine the condition of the roof.

Look aroundLook around the neighborhood for other roofs being

replaced, especially if the homes were built about the same time as yours. Chances are if your neighbors’ roofs are show-ing signs of wear and tear or are being replaced, it may only be a matter of time before it’s your turn.

Also when doing yard work, look along the ground around gutter downspouts to see if there are abnormal amounts of granules washing off the roof. Granules not only give your shingles a distinct appearance, they also protect the asphalt against premature aging. Finding a small sprinkling of gran-ules is normal, but large piles may mean that your roof is los-ing its ability to protect against UV rays.

Look upAnother easy action that can be done while on the ground

is to look up at the edges of the roof for shingle curling. When the corners of the shingle start curling, your roof can be more exposed to the elements, and if a proper roofing underlayment is missing, the interior of the home is also at risk of damage.

Look outWhile on the second floor of your house, look out a win-

dow that overlooks part of the roof and look for shingle wear and tear or missing shingles. If you are already on the ladder cleaning out your gutters, you can conduct many of the same inspections. Cracks or missing granules showing patches of black asphalt could mean it’s time for a new roof.

Look downIf you are not already in the practice of cleaning your gut-

ters, you probably do not realize this is another element of pro-tecting the life of your roof. By making sure gutters are clear of debris, you not only ensure proper drainage, but decrease the chance of ice damming in the winter. Ice dams can cause melt-ing snow and ice to push under shingles and down through your roof deck into your attic or living space. There are spe-cial “ice and water” underlayment to help combat this issue. Owens Corning Roofing has several types called WeatherLock. Unfortunately, ice and water underlayment cannot be added to an existing roof, but is a great product to include if a new roofing system is needed.

Watch your roof’s backAn additional area that is often overlooked in visual inspec-

tion is what is behind the shingles. Whenever you are in the attic, take a few minutes to look for problems such as water stains on the back of the wood decking or holes in the insula-tion. Also, make sure your attic ventilation system has free air flow. A balanced system of air intake and exhaust is preferred. Often times, the air flow can get blocked off at the soffit, which

affects the performance of the system and can result in poor ventilation throughout the home.

Leave the hard work to the professionalsIf you conduct these inspections and you notice that there

are problems, it may be time to call a professional contractor to conduct a thorough inspection and make a recommendation on the actions to restore or replace the roof.

A complete roofing system consists of roofing shingles, as well as other essential components such as felt underlayment, ice and water waterproofing underlayment, starter shingles, ventilation products and hip and ridge shingles.

Owens Corning Roofing offers insight into the things you should know about your roof on their website, including infor-mation about locating and selecting the right roofing contrac-tor. The site also has videos as well as an interactive tool, called DesignEyeQ Visualization Experience Tool which allows you to upload a picture of your roof and “try on” different shingles and color combinations.

A healthy roofing system is important for providing shelter to your family and for protecting your valuables and financial investment. Being proactive in watching the condition of your roof before being surprised by a leak could cost you less in the end.

These few easy tips can help you properly maintain your roof, which can result in long-lasting comfort, beauty and overall energy efficiency.

(ARA) - Did you ever watch a home improvement show team transform a drab room into something spectacular using a shoestring budget and less time than it takes you to clean out your closet? Ever wonder how they did it? Here’s the secret: they cheat. And you can too.

You would probably never consid-er taking shortcuts in other aspects of your life, from car maintenance to pay-ing your taxes. But when it comes to do-it-yourself home improvement and decorating projects, there’s no shame in “cheating” - and a lot to be gained by doing it. Decorator touches like crown moulding that requires no mitering and no-sew window treatments can give your home an instant visual upgrade for a fraction of the cost of having those jobs done professionally.

Here are two DIY “cheats” that will save you time and money - and yield professional results that look like you spent a bundle:

Crown mouldingFew design touches do more to dress

up a room than adding crown moulding. But traditionally, crown moulding has been a job best left to professionals or DIYers with a lot more time and ambi-tion than most.

Adding crown molding the old-fash-ioned way requires expertise - like know-ing how to properly cut and finish each piece - and tools that most homeowners simply don’t have.

Fortunately, there’s an easy alterna-tive: Moulding Mates is a crown mould-ing installation system that requires no specialized tools or skills. You don’t even need to miter cut corners. Simply pre-finish the polyurethane moulding (which is available in a wide range of styles), attach the patented Quick Clips to the wall where you want to place the moulding, and pop the moulding lengths into place on the clips. Corner pieces and connector blocks cover ends

and seams, eliminating the need to miter ends and patch or touch up the long pieces. You can easily install the entire system using a screw drill and a saw. You can learn more and browse products at www.focalpointproducts.com.

Carpet tilesNew carpeting is a much-desired

upgrade. As anyone who’s ever bought carpet can tell you, the cost of instal-lation can be prohibitive, yet properly installing wall-to-wall carpet requires specialized skills and tools that most DIYers don’t have. Carpet tiles can be a great alternative.

Installing carpet tiles is well within the abilities of most homeowners. Because they’re a smaller, more manageable size, carpet tiles are easier to install than a large piece of carpet. They require fewer cuts and no stretching. They also deliver enhanced design capabilities; it’s easy to create a unique pattern using different colored tiles.

Easy do-it-yourself cheats that will look like you spent a bundle


(ARA) - Are you tired of your table? Is your dresser look-ing drab? Don’t worry - it’s easy to update your current furniture with a coat of paint and have it looking fabulous in no time.

“We all have furniture that is either outdated or worn, but we’re just not ready to invest in new,” says Katherine Merkle, Krylon brand manager, “Luckily, with a bit of spray paint - especially a version that’s paint and primer in one - it’s simple to revitalize your current pieces to make them lovely and enjoyable, and for only a few dollars.”

In fact, homeowners can find inspiration to update their home by visiting a variety of websites, including www.trans-formyourhometoday.com or www.ultimatesprayprotection.com. Both offer step-by-step project directions, such as this unique table and chairs project.

Materials needed: table and chairs, Krylon Dual paint and primer spray paint in two complementary colors (example: Regal Blue and Khaki), a screwdriver, painter’s tape and a drop cloth.

Instructions:• Set up a well-ventilated spray area by covering a flat work

surface and the floor with a drop cloth.• Disassemble the table top and chair bases from the legs

and then clean all surfaces.• Cover or fill screw holes with small pieces of tape so that

paint does not clog the holes.• To paint the table top, turn it upside down and first paint

the bottom surface.• Once it’s dry, turn the table top right side up and elevate it

by 2 to 3 inches to ensure coverage of the edges.• When painting the chairs, begin by inverting them and

painting the bottom sides first. Be sure to paint from every side so that you don’t miss any surface. Allow to dry completely, turn right side up and finish painting from each side.

• To paint the base of the table, spray one side at a time, allowing it to dry in between.

* Finally, closely inspect each piece before you reassemble to make sure that the surfaces are fully covered.

In a short time, and with minimal investment, you can create a table and chairs that look like new. For more information on other projects or products from Krylon, visit www.projectsina-can.com.
