Henry Poor’s knowledgeable staff has all the information and products you’ll need to build that one of a kind deck.

Idea Starters and Photo Galleries

Remodeling Advice from the Experts
Remodeling your kitchen, bathroom, family room or outdoor deck can be a great way to improve the quality of your living space and enhance your home’s value.  But before getting started, it is important to follow a few time tested steps.

NARI Remodeling Tips
The National Association of the Remodeling Industry has some tips that will help you avoid many of the common pitfalls of remodeling projects.

• Be creative. There are often multiple solutions to accomplish a design objective, some more expensive than others. Discuss various options with your contractor.
• Choose neutral colors in fixtures, appliances and laminates. They are less expensive initially and won’t look dated when the color trends change.
• Good floor covering is important. It ties one room to another and provides visual consistency. Familiarize yourself with the prices of the various flooring materials to make the best decision for your home.
• Examine how you are utilizing space. You may be able to steal some space from a neighboring room or closet.

You’ll find NARI’s complete list of remodeling tips at NARI Remodeling Tips.  More great ideas can also be found in REMODELING magazine.
