As published in Remodeling Magazine, a recent U.S. Remodeling Sentiment Report reveals a 13% increase in the number of homeowners who say they will remodel this year. This increase follows a 5% increase in last year’s report. Highlights from the report show:
· Adding a bathroom is now the most popular project.
· Interest in do-it-yourself projects, both the actual building as well as acting as their own general contractor, has remained steady throughout the economic downturn.
· Economizing on the cost of materials is growing in popularity at the same time, as fewer homeowners are reporting they will use expensive materials for their remodel. The percentage of homeowners reporting they will use average costing materials remains the same.
· The number of homeowners reporting they are excited about remodeling has climbed to an all-time high of 54%.
