Why Remodel in the Spring?

Going “green” not only saves you money in the long haul, but did you know that it is a great way to increase your families overall health and quality of life? According to homenav.com, there are four main benefits of choosing a remodel that is all-natural. The first and most important, is Health. “Going green is good for both your health and that of your family. The benefits have been found to be physical and emotional. Using natural and safe building materials reduces the toxins that your bodies systems are exposed to. And when you add in some natural lighting, rooms are not only enhanced but it makes your home more comfortable.” Another of these is the Financial Compound Effect. Energy-efficient appliances can save you time and money towards your future utility bills on an upward scale of 50 percent, saving you money in both short and long-term.

After spending a year to complete, Rethink Renovations held a Building Better Bash featuring a home that had been completely gutted from the inside out. Not only did the family receive the most beautiful home of their dreams, the house is 98 percent eco-friendly. Was it cost effective? Absolutely! A non-green home generates approximately $600/month in heating and cooling, electricity and water bills. Those same bills applied to this home was a total of $300/month, with a total savings of $3,600/year!
