Incorporating Sustainable Materials in Your Home RemodelSustainability is the future. With growing environmental consciousness, homeowners are increasingly leaning towards eco-friendly remodels. And it's not just about saving the planet; sustainable materials, like bamboo flooring or recycled glass countertops, are often more durable and offer unique aesthetic appeal.

As you consider remodeling, think about the footprint you want to leave behind. At BHB, we're committed to offering sustainable options that don't compromise on style or function. Your dream home can be both beautiful and eco-friendly.

Renovation vs. Remodel: Understanding the Differences and Deciding What's Right for YouTo the untrained ear, 'renovation' and 'remodel' might sound like synonyms. However, in construction lingo, they're distinct. Renovations generally refer to refreshing or updating existing spaces, like repainting walls or updating fixtures. Remodeling, on the other hand, means altering the structure or form, such as knocking down walls to create an open-concept living space. While renovations typically cost less and take a shorter time, remodeling can be a significant undertaking. When contemplating changes to your home, it's crucial to know what you're getting into. Whichever path you choose, BHB is here to guide and assist.
The Importance of Regular Home Maintenance: Save Now, Benefit Later Owning a home is a rewarding experience, but it demands regular upkeep. The longer we neglect minor issues, the bigger (and more expensive) they become. For instance, unchecked water damage in the attic can escalate to major roof repairs. Similarly, clogged gutters might seem benign until they cause foundational problems. By proactively maintaining our homes, we not only save money but also enhance its longevity. Moreover, a well-kept home preserves its market value. So, don't wait for a tap to drip or paint to chip. Schedule regular maintenance checks, and remember: a little care today can prevent a major remodel tomorrow.
Sometimes there are projects that are just beyond the DIY realm. That’s when you may need to call in the professionals. You may not need or want a complete remodel, but you may need new kitchen counters, or want to replace sliding glass doors with French Doors. Perhaps your fireplace needs a facelift, or you are considering wood floors. BHB’s team of professionals is ready and willing to help make those needs and wants become a reality.
