Perhaps you’d love to renovate your homebut the expenditures involved are makingyou think twice. But what if you were surethat the changes you are planning will helpyou to resell your home? Some renovationprojects can help you obtain a high enoughsale price to recover your outlay.
Among these projects is the addition ofa fireplace, a prized asset well worth theexpense for many people. New, good qual-ity windows made of PVC, wood, or alu-minum will improve the appearance andcomfort of your home, all while reducingheat loss. If your roof is showing signs ofageing, it will boost the value of yourhome to replace it.
If you have to decide which rooms to ren-ovate, be aware that the kitchen and thebathroom get the most attention frompotential buyers. If the floor coverings inthese rooms include carpeting or linoleum,you won’t be wasting your time if youreplace them with wood or ceramic.Installing ceramic tiles in the shower willhelp to give a bathroom a special cachetthat can also boost resale value.
When carrying out renovations, keep allyour bills so that you can show them topotential buyers. These will demonstratehow recent your renovations are and provethat you have been taking care of yourproperty. During the renovations keep
careful track of yourexpenses so that youcan be sure to recoupthem when you sell thehome. And rememberthat people are ready topay more for a propertythat has been renovatedwith professionalism.
Profitable renovation projects
The cost of somerenovation projectscan be completelyrecouped at resale.
The way you install a new hearth or wood-stove varies greatly, depending on themodel you choose. The installation of anelectric fireplace is very simple, as it onlyneeds to be plugged into an electrical outlet.An electric or ethanol fireplace does notrequire a chimney or a ventilation pipe, sosome models can be affixed directly to thewall while others are portable and do notrequire any assembly.
Many safety regulations must be followedwhen putting in a wood fireplace, however.If your home already has a hearthand chimney, you can install afireplace insert, but it mustinclude a new, officially approvedstainless steel chimney lining.Ensure that your chimney is suit-ed to the type of fireplace youwant and that its installationmeets building codes. If you havechosen an advanced combustionfireplace, be sure to hire a compe-tent professional to install it.
A gas fireplace doesn’t require achimney, just an evacuation pipeor duct. You will, however, needto replace the existing chimneylining with an approved metalduct. Insert models are simplyplaced in the opening of an exist-ing fireplace. For those homes
that do not have an existing fireplace, azero clearance fireplace can be installed onan interior or exterior wall with approvedventing material. Again, a natural gas orpropane fireplace should be installed by ahome heating professional.
Wood pellet stoves require an evacuationpipe rather than a chimney, and a simplevent is sufficient for some models. It isalways advisable to have this type of fire-place installed by a licensed contractorfamiliar with the procedure.
Different models, different methods
For safety, make surea professional installs yournew fireplace or woodstove. P

The best way to give your home afacelift without spending a fortune is touse materials that you already have onhand. With a bit of time and effort youcan restore furniture and freshen up yourhome very inexpensively.
If your old furniture is made of solidwood, for example, it can easily be refur-bished and enjoyed for years to come.Just strip it down or paint it a fashionablecolour. You could also remove or adddecorative features and change any han-dles or knobs for modern ones.
Next, find out when and where auctionswill be held in your area. These estatesales and close-outs are one of the cheap-est ways to furnish a home. If you’re areal bargain hunter, choose defectiveitems and fix them up: chairs with dam-aged caning, drapes with frayed edges,or repainted furniture. Antique dealersmay turn up their noses because of thework involved in restoring such things,but if you’re patient and savvy, you canacquire the know-how to do this kind ofrepair work.
If you’d like to create a warm, cozy atmos-phere in your living room, a bioethanol
fireplace could be an economical as wellas an ecological solution. This type offireplace is easy to install, does not requirea chimney, uses renewable energy, andquickly heats a room. It is also smoke-less, scentless, and there are no ashes toclean up. This sort of fireplace doesrequire certification, however, and canonly be installed in fairly large, well ven-tilated rooms.
Last but not least, LED lights are the lat-est trend in penny-pinch decorating, asthey consume very little energy. They areavailable in every possible size and shapeto create a welcoming and cozy atmos-phere in your home.
Redecorate without spending a fortune
If your old furniture is of goodquality, it can easily be refurbished
and enjoyed for years to come.
Even if your home isn’t near a lakeor river it could still be vulnerableto flooding. If you have regularwater infiltration in your base-ment, you must correct the prob-lem as quickly as possible — themould that grows on damp materi-als can seriously compromise thehealth of your home’s occupants.
Moisture might come in throughholes or cracks in the foundationor because of the inadequatewaterproofing of the outside walls.Infiltrations could also be the
result of poor drainage around the perimeter of the foundation or from sloping land thatdirects the water towards the foundation. Whatever the cause, repairs are essential.
If the problem is a seasonal one, it could be caused by crushed or blocked perimeterdrainage pipes in the foundation. If this is the case, they must be repaired or replaced,meaning the entire basement will have to be rebuilt. On the other hand, if the infiltrationsonly occur during heavy downpours, the problem could be caused by the gutters. If thedownspout doesn’t direct the runoff far enough away from the house, this water will infil-trate a poorly waterproofed foundation. A distance of more than four feet should be main-tained, although many municipalities have now established norms of more than five feet.
The worst problem to have to cope with is cracks in the foundation. This problem has tobe resolved from the outside, usually with heavy machinery that excavates and exposesthe walls. Specialists in this type of work will be able to solve the problem, but usuallyat a high cost to the homeowner.
Finally, always ensure that you have a backwater valve, also known as a back flow valve,installed on the sewage pipes. This device is essential in order to avoid water backing upthrough your sinks, showers, or toilets.

Household appliances are constantlyevolving to be greener, sleeker, and moreadapted to any kind budget. New featuresand varied designs make shopping forone of these machines a real experience.
These days, more than 90 percent of dish-washers are electronic, with many pro-grams to precisely control washing inten-sity. Giant strides have also been made inreducing water and electricity consump-tion. Just 15 years ago a dishwasher cycleused an average of 30 litres of water,while today 13 litres is sufficient. Manydishwashers are now less noisy and havelarger holding capacities than they usedto. Some models can wash up to 15 placesettings, which is 25 percent more than aregular-sized machine.
The new generation of washing machinesis undeniably more economical, practical,and ecological than any other. They guar-antee great performance in both time andenergy consumption. High performanceelectronics are featured on both front-or top-loading washers, with sensors toadjust the required amounts of water andelectricity during the wash, rinse, and spincycles. Today’s washing machine can justabout do it all: automatic load weighing,systems to reduce water consumption,suds detection during spin cycles, andsystems to control overflows and leaks.Some even offer closed-door ventilationso that a forgotten load of damp washedclothes won’t start to smell musty!
Finally, for all those households thatwould love to have aclothes dryer but justdon’t have enough room,the vertical washer-dryercombo has also madetechnological leaps andbounds and now offerstwice the performance inhalf the space.
A new era in household appliances
The design and efficiencyof today’s householdappliances seemsstraight out of the future.(Photo Whirlpool)
Lighting makes all the difference in theatmosphere of a home. Each room requiresdifferent lighting, depending on its use.Outside of task-specific lights, such as thoseused for reading or near a work surface, thegoal is generally to enhance your space andmake it feel warm and inviting to the eyes.
A dining room or kitchen table should belit by a ceiling light or chandelier; recessedlighting or spot lights should only be usedto highlight a work of art, a piece of fur-niture, or a decorative object. Rememberthat recessed lighting should be pointedtowards a wall in order to create indirectlight and not be dazzling to the eyes. Floorlamps or directional tracked lights willhelp to produce diffused, more intimatelighting in a room. When deciding on anytype of ceiling light, make sure there issome headroom, with no exposed bulbs tocreate glare.
In a dining room, the bottom of a chande-lier should be at least 30 inches from thetable, and over an island there should be atleast 34 inches of headroom. A few simplecalculations can serve as a guide to the rightsize of chandelier. First of all, measure thewidth of the table and subtract 12 inches.The result will determine the ideal maxi-mum width of the chandelier, while the
minimum width should be half the widthof the table.
Lastly, keep in mind the size of the room aswell as the height of the ceiling when decid-ing on the necessary brightness (wattage) ofyour lighting. The higher the ceiling, themore wattage you will need, unless youhave tracked directional light bulbs. If thisrule isn’t followed, the light will probablybe overwhelmed by the space.
Tips for perfect lighting
Perfect lighting is the keyto maximizing your décor.
