RIPPED OFF BY AN UNREGISTERED CONTRACTOR? TELL L&I AND HELP OTHER CONSUMERS So you’ve been duped by a dishonest contractor and lost hundreds, perhaps thousands, of dollars intended for your dream remodeling project. Maybe you’re too embarrassed to tell anyone. Maybe you don’t know if there’s an agency that takes such reports. You could file a report with your local police or sheriff’s department. But if it has to do with a construction contractor or tradesperson, make sure you also file a complaint with the Washington State Department of Labor & Industries (L&I). Stepping forward could benefit you and prevent other consumers from sharing your fate! If you report it to L&I, the department may assign an inspector to the case and cite the contractor with a civil infraction or recommend the prosecutor file criminal charges. Once you speak with L&I staff, you can learn the options you may have to resolve your issue with the contractor. It’s easy to file a report. Go to www.Lni.wa.gov/Fraud or call 1-888-811-5974 and choose option 1. Consider the case of more than seven Vancouver-area homeowners who felt they were cheated by a paving company. They filed complaints with L&I, and spoke
with L&I construction compliance inspectors and an L&I investigator. L&I submitted the investigation to the Washington Attorney General’s Office, which charged the Vancouver man with unregistered contracting, doing business without workers’ compensation insurance and failing to report or pay workers’ comp premiums. The case is pending. Of course, the best strategy is to avoid problems in the first place. Hiring a registered contractor is a good start. The state requires contractors to register with L&I. The department confirms that they have a business license, liability insurance and bond, which gives homeowners some monetary recourse if something goes wrong. Unregistered contractors often have no bond or liability insurance and fail to provide workers’ comp insurance for their employees. It’s a risky combination that leaves homeowners financially vulnerable if workers are injured on their property or the contractor does shoddy work. Learn how to protect yourself at www.ProtectMyHome.net.

THE PUGET SOUND CHAPTER OF THE NATIONAL KITCHEN & BATH ASSOCIATION (NKBA) UNVEILS THE LATEST TRENDS IN DESIGN, MATERIALS AND APPLIANCES IN THREE SHOWCASE KITCHEN CONCEPTS AT THE SHOW New materials and appliances—both beautiful and functional—are major features for 2015. Adding to the fun: visiting chefs will be “at work” with cooking demonstrations periodically each day of the show in the state-of-the-art “Contemporary Design” kitchen within the multi-faceted display. Sponsored by Tri State Appliances, the spacious, ideagenerating exhibit showcases the latest generation of appliances from BlueStar (ranges), Liebherr (refrigeration), U-Line (under counter refrigeration) and Prizer Hoods (luxury hoods). The display highlights upcoming trends for kitchens, including satin and honed horizontal countertop finishes, (minimizing glare when working in the kitchen or sitting at the bar); paneled front appliances, stained cabinets; white-painted cabinets rather than dark woods; and gloss finishes found on the vertical backsplash or cabinetry. The “Traditional Design” kitchen display features antique white painted upper cabinets with seeded glass doors with earthy light-toned Corian countertops. Completing the look is a BlueStar French door gas oven, stainless steel chimney hood, stainless steel French door refrigerator, and toe kick cabinets for a more freestanding furniture look.
The “Transitional Design” kitchen blends gray recessed panel cabinetry with the speckled gray and warm tones of Pental Orissa quartz countertops. Adding a “wow factor” to the modern kitchen is a Royal Purple range and hood. Other features include dark wood floating shelves and a Liebherr 48” wide wood paneled front refrigerator/freezer--with tip-up cabinetry overhead. Site of the cooking demos, the “Contemporary Design” kitchen spotlights a cooking island with modern iron supports and high gloss, flat paneled doors. Spacesaving Tri State Appliances include a 36” wide undercounter French door paneled refrigerator, and two 24” wide paneled refrigerator drawers. The Puget Sound chapter of the NKBA is one of more than 70 chapters and over 40,000 members throughout the United States and Canada.

“DISCOVER RARE AND UNUSUAL PLANTS—INCLUDING OLD FAVORITES—AT THE PLANT SALE New varieties of plants-and some old favorites-will be on display and for sale in the popular “Plant Sale” at the 2015 Tacoma Home & Garden Show®. Combining bargains with diverse offerings, this popular show attraction is presented by Lael’s Moon Garden and Tapestry Garden and Farm. With thousands of colorful and interesting plants to choose from, gardeners can discover rare and unusual perennials, Japanese maples, dwarf conifers, and ornamental shrubs. Representatives from Lael’s Moon Garden and Tapestry Garden and Farm will be on hand to answer questions about the plants they offer for sale. Lael’s Moon Garden will spotlight many of the over 1,000 varieties of plants at their Rochester, WA
location, including ornamental shrubs, edibles and selected perennials (some of which are rare native and non-native). The nursery is a great source for hardy outdoor plants and offers one of the largest selections of these varieties in the area. Tapestry Garden and Farm of Olympia is a small family-owned farm and specialty nursery, and will have an on-site inventory of locally grown plants— many grown right on their farm. Also on sale: garden art and other hand-crafted items by local artists. THE PLANT SALE IS LOCATED IN THE SW CORNER OF THE ARENA AND IS ADJACENT TO THE SEMINAR STAGE.
“IDEAS FOR THE GARDEN INSPIRE SHOWGOERS WITH SPECTACULAR GARDEN DISPLAYS AT THE SHOW Two spectacular gardens, created by Marenakos Rock Center and Olympic Landscape, showcase techniques and plant varieties that are both beautiful and inspirational. As showgoers enter the show, they’ll encounter new “All-Wheel Drive” vehicles from Western Washington Toyota Dealers perched upon rocks and boulders in an imaginative garden display created by Marenakos of Issaquah. Transforming the Tacoma Dome lobby into a Pacific-Northwest forest setting, the Toyota display is surrounded by alpine plants and fir trees, and includes a water feature, meandering stone pathway, and outdoor lighting that underscores the liberal use of plants and stones. Marenakos, one of the oldest and largest stone suppliers in the Northwest, also creates the ideal setting for the “Northwest Lifestyle.” Working with members of the Washington Association of Landscaping Professionals (WALP) and Washington State Nursery and Landscape Association (WSNLA), the 6,000 square-foot garden display spotlights a rustic cabin getaway with stone lanterns and stairs, an abundance of all-season
Northwest plantings, and a tranquil water feature amidst a backdrop of stone boulders. Casey’s Landscaping, Mark the Pond Guy, Nature Perfect, Puget Sound Plants, and Windmill Gardens are also participating in the creation of these two impressive displays.
Olympic Landscape’s “Winter Secrets” garden display features the colors of winter within a backyard retreat. Secrets to discover include a hidden sanctuary with a warming fire, bubbling urn and a reflection pond. Some of the garden’s many points of interest are a wooden fence and arbor, an inviting charcoal paver patio with delightful furniture, winter décor and other outdoor features that provide an outdoor living entertainment space. Their Design Studio, which is tucked away in the display, offers showgoers garden inspiration with “Before” and “After” photos and examples of what can be created in your own backyard.
