Painting is a job that requires preparation and the right equipment. Oftentimes homeowners are unsure about whether they need to use primer before painting or if just paint will do the trick. Although there are no firm rules, there are certain cases where one or the other will be adequate.

Consider a room where the walls have been heavily stained, either by moisture infiltration, rust or another factor. Deep-set stains may bleed through regular paint, therefore a primer should be applied to help block and lock-in the stain. When a room had previously been painted in a very dark color, like red or purple, a primer can help cover the color quickly without the need for multiple applications of regular paint. There also are specialized primers that can be used in rooms such as kitchens and bathrooms that often contain a lot of moisture. These primers inhibit the growth of mold and mildew on painted surfaces. Primers also may be used on materials, such as metal or plastic, to help the colored paint stick to the surface of the item. If a room is only to be painted white or tinted slightly with color, then a primer alone can be used. Certain primers seal porous wall surfaces so they do not absorb paint, requiring more coats for coverage.

Rooms that are being painted that are already white and free of stains or other surface abnormalities may be painted sufficiently with just a coat of regular paint. If skipping primer, look for a high-quality, thick paint that boasts good coverage in one or two coats.

There are new products today that offer primer and paint all in one combination. The jury is still out on the efficacy of these new items, but homeowners can experiment with these paints to see if they work for them. Keep in mind that the cost of a combination product may be more than traditional paint and primer.

Undermount sinks growing in popularity Undermount sinks are quickly becoming the most popular type of sink in today’s kitchens, likely because undermount sinks usually go hand-in-hand with solid-surface countertops. Since homeowners are choosing solid-surface materials, such as granite, quartz and even manufacturered stone for their kitchen counters, the need for an undermount sink becomes evident. Here’s why: Undermount sinks create a seamless surface that works well with solid-surface countertops while maintaining the counter’s aesthetic appeal. They are installed so the top of the sink is flush with the edge of the counter. When solid-surface counters are cut to accommodate the sink, exact measurements are needed so that the hole is essentially custom made for the particular sink so it fits like a glove. Cutting hard materials is not easily done by a do-it-yourselfer. As a result, the project is often handled by the countertop manufacturer.

Unlike undermount sinks, the alternative is a drop-in sink.

These are traditional sinks that do not require an exact cut of the countertop material. That’s because the sink has a lip that overhangs the counter and can cover up inexact holes.

Shutter Up! (MS) -- Homeowners seeking a cost-effective way to gain more privacy in the home can “shutter up” with interior acrylic block window coverings that install over the inside of existing glass windows. Similar to plantation shutters or blinds, the lightweight acrylic block shutters install in just 20 minutes to the inside of the home to add decorative style and privacy to a room.

Custom sized to fit a specific window, Coronado Block Shutters are made of a cellular PVC composite. Block patterns are available in Clear Wave and Obscure Wave, providing privacy options.

“There are many situations when a home is ‘almost perfect’ but can greatly benefit from privacy shutters,” says Roger Murphy with Hy-Lite/U S Block Windows, manufacturers of Coronado Block Shutters(TM).

“Perhaps your bathroom garden tub has a clear glass window over it

Or, your living room seems a bit ‘too close’ to the neighbor’s house and you’d like to ‘shutter up’ in the evenings to enjoy a night with the family.

Roof Envy (MS) -- Have you ever wished you could have an elegant new roof like your neighbors? You may have a case of “roof envy.” Don’t worry, there’s an easy -- and surprisingly affordable -- cure.

Thanks to advanced technologies, polymer roofs have become the “must have” roofing product for homeowners investing in new roofs. Featuring impact-resistant and energy-efficiency qualities, these man-made roofs require no maintenance and come in a wide variety of colors.

Backed by a 50-year limited warranty, the patented snap-fit, self-locating Bellaforte 12-inch slate roofing tiles include an integrated rain gutter, leading edge tab and rain dam. The roofing tiles use 20 percent less material than traditional synthetic and natural slate shingles, saving resources and reducing the tile weight.

The authentic look of a Bellaforte tile roof, coupled with its resistance to fire, has caused sales of this impressive product to soar during the past year. The affordable roofing tiles resist insects, rot, and high winds, making them ideal for every imaginable geographic weather situation.

“When you consider you’re investing in a roof that will last for five decades you get a true feeling for the value of a polymer roof,” says Mark Clement, professional contractor and host of MyFixItUpLife. com. “When I installed my DaVinci Roofscapes roofing tiles, I had neighbors come right up to the house and touch the tiles. They simply couldn’t believe the polymer tiles could look so authentic like real slate. Now I’ve seen them replacing their own roofs with this product!”

For California homeowner Dan Baer, the selection of a polymer roof has his neighbors burning with envy.

In 2008, the Baer family watched as a raging wildfire came within a half mile of their home. That was too close for comfort for Baer, who was concerned about the old wooden shake shingles on their roof at the time.

“More than 50 homes burned in our area during that one fire,” says Baer. “If the winds had been stronger, our home would have been included. Our new Bellaforte polymer tiles are rated Class A for fire retardance, which gives us tremendous peace-of-mind. This was an investment I was happy to make because the benefits are so great.”

The affordable and colorful Bellaforte Slate roof on this home resists hail, fire, high winds, rot and insects, making it a good investment for homeowners.

Make Gutter Cleaning Safer and Easier (MS) -- Nobody enjoys gutter cleaning. Yet it’s much more important than many homeowners think. Rain flowing over windows, doors, and siding can rot fascia as well as door and window framing. It can erode the soil around your home and damage its foundation, and also cause a wet basement, mold, and mildew. To help keep gutters operating properly and to protect your investment, try these tips: 1. Think Safety First. Always use a solid, quality ladder to reach your gutters. Safety glasses and gloves are a good idea, too. And watch out for power lines.

2. Use the Right Tools for the Job. In addition to needing something to contain gutter debris, you’ll also need a tool to scoop it out. The Gutter Getter Scoop from Working Products, Inc. is a good option. It’s the only flexible scoop shaped to fit all gutters, plus it will keep your hands away from the debris.

3. Don’t Over-reach. Over-reaching can destabilize your ladder and cause you to fall. Instead, consider using a special tool to extend your reach. The Gutter Grabber is a cleaning tool on an extension pole that lets you clean up to 18 feet of gutter without moving your ladder.

4. Check the Downspouts, Too. If the spout is clogged, a coat hanger or the handle of your Gutter Grabber can help get the debris out of the spout. Then, use a garden hose to flush out any remaining debris. For stubborn clogs, it may be necessary to remove the downspout and back flush it with the hose. Covering your downspout with a strainer such as the Gutter Getter Big Top Downspout Strainer will help reduce future clogging, too.

5. Clean Gutters Anytime They Need It. Most homeowners know they need to clean their gutters in the fall. But once you understand the importance of gutters, you’ll know why its vital to clean them out anytime they get full. To protect the value of your home, keep your gutters clean throughout the year.

Luxury Home Decor Begins On the Floor (MS) -- While big-ticket renovations may not fit your budget these days, there are still plenty of improvements that can offer a dramatic impact without emptying your wallet.

“Start from the ground up when considering cost-effective changes that make a big impact,” says Linda Jacobs, a design expert from Nourison, a leading manufacturer of quality area rugs and broadloom. “Cosmetic changes such as a beautiful area rug on the floor can give the impression that you’ve altered your entire living space. Available in any price range, a new rug can instantly transform a room.”

* Use area rugs to separate spaces or tie rooms together where large expanses of hardwood floors do not make for a cozy, inviting space. Using a larger area rug can make a space appear larger. * Use an area rug on top of a carpet. Create a striking focal point in a wall-to-wall carpeted room with contrasting color area rugs strategically placed in a room. * Experiment with color. Choose your favorite color palette. Once your rug is in place, you’ll have several colors to use to match when introducing small accent pieces throughout your room. * Texture, Texture, Texture. Even solid colors can become interesting because of their texture. Natural wools from flat-weave to plush, wool blended with pure silk or today’s high tech synthetics, plus shags and novelty yarns are just some of the many choices of constructions with different textures. Additionally, many of today’s best handmade and even machinemade area rugs feature hand carving for additional textural appeal.

A new area rug or carpet can make a dramatic change to any room.

These products from Nourison’s Tropics collection (left) and Grand Textures collection (right) are examples of how to infuse color, texture and design into your decor.

* Don’t be afraid of patterns. Adding geometric patterns can take a traditional setting and make it appear more modern, while floral patterns and Persian designs have a more traditional appeal. In today’s fashion forward rug selections, many of the traditional patterns are revitalized in newer color palettes so a traditional rug can have a totally new appeal.

Luxurious wall-to-wall carpeting also completely changes any space. Nourison has unique hand-carved wool and wool blend carpets in patterns that are truly extraordinary, offering three-dimensionality in patterns unlike most ordinary carpets.

Creative use of area rugs and carpets can replace costly renovations for totally new looks throughout your home. Nourison offers a variety of collections available in patterns and colors that complement all types of design styles.

How to maintain your whirlpool tub

The Reynolds Group

When remodeling bathrooms, some homeowners prefer to add special features that give the room a spa-like feel. A whirlpool tub is one such feature that can help transform an ordinary bathroom into a relaxing oasis.

for Savings of

$250 to $600

Whirlpool tubs have many benefits, which have helped the industry become a billion-dollar business. Massage and water therapy can be instrumental in reducing stress and easing tired muscles. Some people depend on a soaking bath with rejuvenating water jet propulsion as part of a sports rehab regiment or to alleviate pain associated with arthritis.

Whirlpool baths come in different dimensions and shapes to fit just about every bathroom.

The common shapes include corner size, recessed, platform, or freestanding. Whirlpools can also be sized to fit two people or just one person. Many people prefer a corner style or a platform bath because they are easier to fit than most.

Although the installation of an all-in-one whirlpool tub may be similar to a standard bathtub, with the addition of electrical hookup, the maintenance of the tub is somewhat different.

There are certain products that should be avoided when cleaning or using the whirlpool bath to prolong its life.

* One of the plagues of any appliance that houses water is hard water. This can form scaling that may damage the internal components of the motor and water jets. Testing to see the hardness level of water may be a wise decision. This way a water softening system can be added to the home, which will also benefit when doing laundry or running the dishwasher. * Many whirlpool tubs list items that should not be used in the water while bathing. These may include sudsing bubble bath powders or scented oil additions, each of which may form a film inside of the system, causing it to malfunction. Be sure to read the users’ manual prior to first use or before introducing anything foreign to the tub. * Tubs will require routine cleaning as well. Use a dampened sponge to rub off any grime and other deposits that can form an unsightly ring around the tub. Some whirlpool manufacturers will list recommended products for cleaning. In general, a mild, low-suds formula or a diluted bleach-and-water solution will be effective for routine cleaning.

Whirlpool baths can be a prized addition to a bathroom and add resale value to the home. However, a whirlpool can quickly become ineffective if not properly maintained and used.

* For tough grime, fill the tub just above the jets with water. Place about a capful of bleach into the water. Let the tub run for at least five minutes to agitate the solution. Let the water drain and then rinse out the whirlpool bath afterward. Bleach can also kill bacteria and pathogens that may have been left behind in jet plumbing that did not completely drain out.

Don’t be afraid of pattern Many homeowners want to introduce pattern to their rooms but don’t know where to start.

They may wonder if two patterns match or how to determine scale. It may take a little practice, but using pattern is easier than one may think.

Nothing adds visual interest to a room more than pattern and color. While homeowners may have the knack with color, they may shy away from pattern. Individuals can trust their instincts -- they’re usually right. For those who have mastered pattern with their wardrobes, it’s time to try out some pattern in home design.

Varying pattern size adds dimension to a room. Not every pattern should be the same size and variety, otherwise things can look too matched and staged. Try varying patterns of similar colors but experiment with size. For example, place a largely patterned area rug on the floor. An ottoman may feature a medium-sized pattern. Mix things up by alternating throw pillows in a floral or paisley print with subtle stripes. However, make sure the texture of the fabrics match. Gauzy curtains with heavy chenille pillows may clash.

When selecting patterned items, choose similarly colored items. This way even if the fabrics or patterns aren’t exactly the same, they’ll look cohesive through color. For a room to feel a bit more upbeat, consider complimentary opposite colors. If you prefer a more restful atmosphere, try a palette of colors from the same family. Just vary the intensity of the shades.

Homeowners who have gained some pattern confidence may want to strike out on their own to create a room that is unique. Those who still need a little help may want to consider taking the path of designers before them. There are certain patterns and fabrics that have already been established as working together for certain design styles. Here are a few.

* American Southwest:Navajo patterns are at the forefront of this design style and can be used on upholstery or pillows. Use a smaller-scale stripe on window treatments. Solidshaded throw pillows in a complementary color to the Navajo pattern will coordinate well. * English country: This style is about large-scale chintz on sofa and draperies. Mix in narrow striped, slip-covered lounge chairs for a little extra panache. * American country: A small floral print on the sofa or comforter can be offset with a large country quilt pattern hung on the wall as a wall treatment. Checkerboard checks, medium stripes on draperies or select crocheted valences coordinate well.

Maintenance is an inevitable part of home ownership. Beyond routine fixes, many homeowners aspire toward larger projects such as room expansion or a new roof or siding. Funding for these projects may a loan from the bank.

A home equity loan or line of credit are common ways to pay for home renovations. A home equity loan can be used for a number of things, including paying education expenses or buying luxury items. Oftentimes, a homeowner chooses to borrow against the equity in the homes to make improvements that will increase the value of the property.

A home equity loan is also known as a second mortgage. Homeowners borrow money by leveraging the equity in their homes. Equity is the amount of ownership value a homeowner has in a property. It is calculated by subtracting the unpaid mortgage balance and other debts on the home from the property’s fair market value. It’s important to note that some home values decrease during times of economic downturn. Therefore, homeowners should do their homework prior to starting any improvements to determine if a home equity loan is a good idea.

There are two main types of home equity loans: A fixed-rate loan or a home equity line of credit.

With a fixed-rate loan, a lump sum is provided to the homeowner, which is then repaid over a set period of time with a fixed interest rate that is agreed upon by the lender and the lendee. The payment and interest rate remain the same for the life of the loan.

When homeowners choose a home equity line of credit, or HELOC, it is like they are using a credit card linked to their home’s value. Borrowers are pre-approved for a set amount against which they can borrow. Monthly payments may vary and the interest rate is based on the current interest rate, meaning it can fluctuate.

Home equity loans typically offer interest rates that are lower than those linked to credit cards or offered with other types of loans. The interest paid on these loans also may be tax-deductible. Home equity loans are a good choice for responsible homeowners who have the means to repay the loan. They can be a pitfall for borrowers who overspend and need creative financing methods to pay off outstanding debt.

Using a home equity loan to make a home improvement should be done carefully. Financial experts say that the loan should only be taken if the renovation will add value to the home.

Cosmetic changes and personal additions, such as a swimming pool, may not justify the cost of the loan.

Individuals can talk with a personal savings bank, the company that holds their mortgage, a credit union, or another financial institution to determine if a home equity loan is the right choice in this current Home equity loans are common ways to market. pay for home improvements.

Not All Painter’s Tapes Are Created Equal Four qualities to look for that will assure a superior paint job (MS) -- Whether you’re an experienced DIYer or painting your first apartment, one of the most important decisions you can make in assuring a quality paint job is the choice of painter’s tape.

The right painter’s tape can make all the difference in achieving clean, straight paint lines, and protecting surfaces that you don’t want painted, such as glass, woodwork, wallboard, ceilings, and carpeting.

Before you buy your paint and painting tools, do your homework on the variety of tapes on the market. Read package labels carefully before making your selection. For most surfaces, a premium-quality painter’s tape will do the job. Here are four essential qualities to consider: Resistance to “bleeding.” One of the biggest problems painters face is paint seeping under -- or “bleeding” -- beyond tape edges. This can cause messy lines and uneven workmanship, and result in the need for frequent touch ups. One product painting professionals recommend is Bloc-it®, a high performance, professional grade painter’s tape from IPG that’s treated with a proprietary formula that eliminates bleed through, and delivers a consistently clean paint line. An independent comparison study of leading brands of painter’s tape found that Bloc-it had the least amount of bleed on a painted drywall surface, which is among the most common wall surfaces in homes today.

Flexibility. If you have many architectural features or curved surfaces to paint around, consider tapes with fine crepe paper backing which bend and “drape” easily around light switches, moldings, window sashes, and door frames.

Don’t overlook the importance of painter’s tape when planning your next paint job. An independent study found Bloc-it(R) to be the best-performing painter’s tape on common painted drywall surfaces.

Ease of removal. A low-adhesive tape allows for easy removal, without leaving any residue or damage to the surface to which it is applied. It’s a good idea to test your tape to make sure it doesn’t pull off the paint; if it does, you’ll need to purchase one with less adhesive.

It’s essential that you educate yourself about the characteristics of painter’s tapes and understand the surfaces you will be working with before you make your tape selection. It’s a decision that will go a long way towards helping you achieve a quality painting job. For more information on Bloc-It by IPG, visit www.itape.com and select Bloc-It under the Consumer tab.

PAVING Embracing Color on Your Home (MS) -- The growing trend of homeowners staying in their existing houses longer due to economic challenges has had a colorful effect on homes. People are taking the opportunity to personalize their homes more with colorful exterior accents and they’re not stopping with just a splash of paint.

According to national color expert Kate Smith, homeowners are taking steps to express their personalities by adding color to everything from their roofs to their entry doors to their window frames.

“Today’s homeowners are looking beyond variations of whites and beiges to set off the key accent points of their homes, such as louvers, trim and window frames,” says Smith, president of Sensational Colors. “With the realization that they’re going to be staying in their current houses longer comes the commitment by people to truly personalize their homes. This has resulted in eye-catching neighborhoods.

“As homeowners replace major components of their homes they place greater value on finding products with a long life span, lower maintenance and style. They are seeking out both a noticeable change and an improvement from existing products on the home. The ability to add a creative element, personal touch or signature color tends to ‘bond’ homeowners even more closely with their living spaces.”

According to Smith, one of the hottest trends for exterior enhancements is to select vinyl windows with exterior color frames that complement the overall look of the home. She cites the Decorum by Simonton product line as one that offers everything consumers are looking for -- color, energy efficiency, style and low maintenance.

“With their minds on sustainability and their eye on good design, many homeowners are investing in color as a way to express themselves and reinvent their current homes,” says Smith.

“Simonton offers exterior window frame colors of brick red, pine green, bronze, driftwood and chocolate that perfectly match up with the earthy colors homeowners gravitate to for their home exteriors. These same colors can be drawn out further on trim elements of the home along with being component colors of the roof and entry door.”

Along with offering colorful exteriors on their replacement window frame exteriors, Simonton also offers the same colors on new construction windows so homeowners can build with color confidence right from the start.

“A window is like a two-sided canvas,” says Smith. “The colors on the frame exteriors enhance the home’s overall appearance from the street. And then when you get inside and select stylish woodgrain frame interiors and premium hardware finishes, you’re adding beauty to the room settings. That’s a ‘win- Brick red vinyl window frames provide the win’ experience for any homeowner.” perfect accent color on this home.

(MS) -- Household energy-efficiency is now more important than ever when selling a home. Purchasers are able to rate one residence against another, so if you want top dollar for your house some day, it’s worth investing along these lines with upgrades and renovations.

“If adding rooms or finishing the basement, for example, take a look at the most energy efficient materials and methods,” says Todd Blyth at Nudura, a company that has spearheaded an advanced version of the insulated concrete form (ICF), as well as do-it-yourself materials. “The newest renovation method, called Nudura Insulation Technology, is ideal to insulate foundation walls, inner and outer walls, plus flat, or cathedral ceilings.

MAKE YOUR CONCRETE FLOORS SHINE George Brothers Inc. offers epoxy flooring.

A stunning finish that provides exceptional performance, durability, resiliency & aesthetic beauty.

“For both interior and exterior walls, you use a shiplap system of expanded polystyrene (EPS), which allows large 4 X 8 foot sheets of this foam to be installed without any gaps for air leakage. It’s easy to cut, easy to install, and the performance value is up to R-14. Drywall can then be attached directly to the embedded fastening strip allowing the electrical wiring to be easily run.”

In response to energy conservation, environmental responsibility and consumer demand, construction practises have advanced significantly in North America over the past few years.

* Personal finances: It sounds simple, but homeowners must examine their finances before starting a home improvement project. Just because a bank will loan out money for a project doesn’t mean the project is affordable. Homeowners should compare their monthly expenses with their incomes, and then determine what’s left that might be able to go toward a project. Monthly expenses include everything from groceries to mortgage payments. When the comparison between monthly expenses and monthly income has been made, homeowners can get a grasp of just what they can and cannot afford. * Credit score: Many homeowners finance home improvement projects with loans from the bank.

Particularly in the current econo-

my when banks are being forced to tighten lending requirements, securing such loans isn’t easy. Homeowners with significant credit card debt should eliminate such debt before beginning a project. Doing so serves multiple purposes. First and foremost, eliminating outstanding debt will free up more money to allocate toward the project. Eliminating debt will also make loan applicants more attractive to prospective creditors, increasing their chances of securing a loan and a lower interest rate. * The project’s priority: Budgeting a home improvement project also involves being honest as to just how necessary the project is. For example, a man cave might be a dream project, but should it be a priority over other things around the house? If wear and tear is taking its toll on the roof, for instance, the money going toward the man cave should probably be allocated to replacing the roof instead. If a project is low on the priority list but high on the want list, re-examine those projects higher up on the priority list to determine if they are more deserving of immediate attention and funds than vanity projects. * Overrun costs: Not every home improvement project will come in at or under budget. Many, in fact, go over budget due to a host of factors.

Homeowners should not be caught off guard when a project goes over budget. Instead, plan for the project to go over budget and expect such frustration. Allocate extra money in the original budget for overrun costs. This will reduce stress and frustration, and if the project comes in under budget, then there’s extra money when the project is completed.

Easy and Economical Solutions for Those Postponed Remodeling Plans (MS) -- by Gale Steves If you cannot wait any longer to make some much needed changes in your home, you are not alone. Americans are once again getting ready to begin the home improvement process.

This pent-up energy often begins in the kitchen, a room that gets a lot of wear and tear but also seems to go out of fashion more quickly these days.

This time around, you will be more cautious like many consumers are with their choices and costs ... and yet you want to make observable changes.

The most obvious change is installing a new countertop. Remember that countertops represent 30 percent of the color in any kitchen. Create new excitement by simply replacing your tired, scratched or stained counter surface with one made from the latest generation of premium laminate.

The latest additions to the popular Wilsonart®HD® High Definition® design series reflect new interest in natural, classic and tumbled marble, limestone and travertine.

The good news is this fashionable look is available without the high cost of stone or the constant maintenance those stones require.

These lighter, less patterned laminate designs are perfect for today’s hectic lifestyle. In fact, the new cost-efficient countertop can be installed within a few hours and without disrupting family life. They also give an existing kitchen the promise of a

whole new look that’s universally appealing. That equals a big change for small change.

All of these new designs are available in a new surface effect of a lower matte-gloss sheen that seems almost glazed. The “Glaze” texture is actually a layering of matte features over a glaze of semi-gloss. This creates a timeworn result that is less reflective and more restrained. It’s a perfect balance for the sophisticated dramatic materials that are part of today’s kitchen: stainless steel, chrome, copper, and even glass.

Wilsonart patterns benefit from AEON Enhanced Performance technology. AEON brings four times the scuff and scratch-resistance of conventional laminate, as well as five times the wear resistance to the surface. Unlike granite, the surfaces of these new laminates are non-porous and never need to be sealed.

Here are some other remodeling ideas that will have high impact without high expense: * Replace your old refrigerator with an energy-efficient model.

Look in the big box stores for floor models or even those with a little dent on the side, which will never be seen. * Refresh your cabinets with a coat of paint, and change all the cabinet hardware in the process. This makes everything look new. * Swap out your old ceiling light fixture and install under cabinet lighting as well. A little light can make a dramatic difference. * Change your sink or sinks. Consider a new Wilsonart®HD® sink when adding a laminate countertop. These sinks were designed to be mounted to a laminate surface.
