Smart remodelling.
Created Sep 12 2007 by Walus, Mirek
Many magazines publish annual tables indicating the return one
can expect on investment projects like remodeling a kitchen or adding a deck.
While it is quite hard to give the correct assessment or point to single most
important feature worth doing more than others, one conclusion is almost
certain: unlike most of the other rooms, re-modeling the kitchen and bathroom
are usually the most expensive and challenging projects; but no matter who you
ask – the most worth doing.
Fresh idea for kitchen and bathroom remodeling project: use
natural materials like slate or ceramic tiles. Linoleums and vinyl are
definitely out.
Start with envisioning your new bathroom or kitchen: lots of
light, warm pleasant colors, perfect shine of the countertop, new energy
efficient appliances, smell of freshly brewed coffee in the
morning… By the way, how would you like your morning
coffee cold? So, why are you going to put up with this so pretty but ice
cold brand new floor?
Have your new floors warm. Many homebuilders'
surveys have shown and continue to show that, if given a choice, most new home
owners prefer radiant floor heat over other types of systems.
