Remodeling Up – Choose Contractor Wisely
Survey says, “Significantly more U.S. homeowners are moving forward with renovation projects compared to this time last year.” According to the second annual Houzz & Home survey that garnered more than 100,000 responses, 53% of homeowners surveyed believe that now is a good time to remodel. Moreover 58 percent of those planning projects in the next two years will hire professional help. The study also found that three-quarters of homeowners believe that now is a good time to buy a home. Together with a recent Commerce Department report showing the rate of single-family home construction at its highest level in four and a half years, the results of this study point to a strengthening housing and renovation market.

The H & H survey also indicated that bathrooms and kitchens currently top America’s renovation project list, with 28 percent of respondents planning a bathroom remodel or addition, and 23 percent planning a kitchen remodel or addition.
