October is R E N O V A T I O N M O N T H Renovation Month Make the most of fall and renovate! For several years now, October has been Renovation Month here in Canada. However, do you know why so many people carry out renovation projects at this time of year? The cooler air of October allows us to work comfortably, without being either too hot or too cold, making it an ideal time to change the windows or redo the roof. What's more, by increasing the energy efficiency of the house now, you can save a lot of money on heating this winter. People also renovate during the fall because they have more time to spare. We don't usually spend as much time in the backyard, relaxing in the pool or working in the vegetable garden which means we can get out the tools without wishing we were somewhere else. Moreover, the children are back at school, the house is quieter and it's possible to renovate safely and without interruption. It often happens that, in October, workmen and contractors are more available because the spring and summer rush construction projects are completed. In addition, many renovation centres and stores reduce their prices to liquidate summer merchandise and make room for winter products. Finally, if you are thinking about selling your home in the spring, it's a good idea to start any improvement projects straight away so that they're completed before the house is put on the market. Often, a home staging is done just before putting the house on the market, making such a difference that you fall in love all over again with your home and no longer want to leave! By renovating in the fall, you can take advantage of a new decor and give yourself more time to make an enlightened decision about selling your home. Milder temperatures, workman availability and good prices are all solid reasons to renovate in October! ty Old World Quali New World Satisfaction Rick Findlay HOT TUBS, RENOVATIONS, PANEL REPLACEMENTS/SERVICE UPGRADES, KOHLER STANDBY GENERATORS Cell: 416-918-4700 Tel: 905-702-7977 1-800-683-2999 www.findlayroofing.ca 905-702-0515 www.dekerelectric.ca ESA/ECRA #7003060 Locally Owned & Operated For a FREE Consultation & Estimate We will not be undersold.
