Hi I'm Jenny Snook Scott, Chief Design Officer with California Closets
summertime is a great time as people are thinking about having the extra time in
their days to be able to get organized and so we are asked very often about what
are some of the home remodeling projects at the people are thinking about, should
focus on as they get into the summer.
Often times thinking about a big project like taking on a kitchen or bath remodel
can really seem to be a little overwhelming so we do actually suggest
starting with something a little bit smaller areas of the home that you
can tackle. It will really make a difference on a day-to-day basis one
being a pantry and entryway closet a linen closet perhaps a walk-in closet
a garage, a media center all areas the california closets supports.
Two thousand twelve is a great year we're really excited to be hearing the
industry trends that right now remodeling projects are at an all-time
high since two thousand six.
We're also hearing that people pulling permits for new home building
is actually the highest it's been since 2008 so it's really good time
to be thinking about how you can add value to your own home by taking on a
remodeling project.
One of the things that we find is working in a multi-functional space when
you're looking at staying in a home. Which nearly a third of people of the
last five years
have not moved towns and do not plan to be moving homes in the next year
too.
They're really looking at how they can maximize the space they have at home
and how to be multi-functional so as an example taking a guest room that was
dedicated fully to being used for guest space and having that be perhaps a home
office area a workout center or a homework area for children. One of the things
that we can do is work with you to create a custom solution that can
actually take a room like that
build in a desk area build in a work area and actually have a wall bed that for
instance that would pull down so that when a guest comes they feel welcome
coming into your home.
The nice thing is that tucks back right away and becomes a functional space in
your home.
Again people are always thinking about what is the payoff doing organization in
my home one of the top three things that people are looking for when they're
looking for new homes. So it really does add value to your home for resale but it's
one of the things that you can really greatly appreciate when you're using the
home yourself.
