MOORE COUNTY HOME BUILDERS ASSOCIATION

FRIDAY, JULY 15, 2011 By John Pandich Moore County Home Builders Association President

What NOT to Do When Decorating

There is no limit to where you can draw inspiration and advice on how to decorate and design your new home. You can read books and magazines, watch Home Shows, visit showrooms and search home decorating and interior design websites to find out how to get a beautifully decorated home.

What they don’t usually tell you is what NOT to do when decorating. Here is a list of what NOT to do when decorating to avoid being disappointed with your new home: • Don't Let Someone Make Decisions for You Your home is your own personal space; so don't let someone

else tell you what you should do. If you need help, ask for suggestions or do the research online. When the time comes to make final design decisions, make sure they’re your own, because it’s YOUR home and you need to feel comfortable and confident with your choices. • Don't Choose Paint From a Paint Chip A small paint chip might look great in the fluorescent light in the paint store, but a whole wall of it might be overpowering and nothing like you expected. When you've decided on a color, purchase a quart of the color and paint a small section on the wall to see how the color will look in the room with natural light. If you don't want to mess up the walls,

paint a piece of cardboard and tape it on the walls in the room where you plan to use the color. • Don't Decide on Colors in a Store Don’t buy fabric, flooring or paint on your first visit. Such large design elements shouldn’t be an impulse purchase. Ask for samples of paint, carpet, wood, tile and swatches of fabric so you can see what they will look like in your home in natural light and at night. • Don't Force a Color Scheme Don't force things to match. Just because you have a red print sofa doesn't mean that it will coordinate with any red window

treatments or accents. Choose your color family and then identify the major pieces so you can coordinate all the elements. • Don't Let Your Furniture Hug the Walls Don't arrange the chairs, sofa, and tables along the walls of the room unless you have no choice. Make groupings of furniture for cozy social settings and pull pieces into the center of the room to create an inviting feeling. • Don't Be Extravagant on Useless Pieces If a piece doesn't serve some function and won't last for years, simply fight the impulse to purchase it. Save your money for the more impor-

tant items. • Don't Display Every Personal Treasure Don't overcrowd your home with collectibles. Each piece should mean something. If it doesn’t or if you don't have room, consider rotating your collections from time to time. You'll be glad when it's time to dust! And guests can really appreciate your personal pieces when they are not cluttered. • Don't Forget the Details Don't just paint the walls and put the furniture around the room. Learn about accents and accessories that make your decorating style unique. Find interesting lamps, candles, vases, mirrors, decorative pillows and more to personalize your new space.

be damaged in an offsite secure storage facility for optimal protection. Even before your work is complete, your agent can go over your current homeowners insurance and make sure you have the replacement value of your home updated. This will reflect increases in construction materials and labor, changes in building codes, installation of new safety devices, changes in square footage, and custom features and appliances. Top tips for homeowners considering a renovation: 1. Contact your agent before construction starts for coverage of your remodeling work and the value of your completed home. 2. Make sure your contractor and subcontractors have adequate liability insurance. Many contractors carry the generally recommended limits of at least twice the replacement value of the home. 3. Ask the contractor to maintain adequate safety and security devices such as fire and burglar alarms. 4. Save all records related to your project (receipts and appraisals). Store copies of these records in a secure off-site location. Videotaping your house and possessions is also recommended.

erty from poor workmanship or carelessness." In addition, risk managers at the insurance company can provide advice to minimize the possibility of fires, theft, and mishaps. Good risk management practices also minimize potential project delays. This may be a good time to add security and safety features such as water flow monitoring devices or upgraded burglary and fire alarm systems. One of the most common issues is maintaining a secure environment during the work phase. For example, contractors often disable a home's existing fire alarm system because dust and particulates generated by construction tend to trigger false alarms. It is important for temporary measures such as fencing and alternate alarms to be in place to keep the property secure. Demolition debris should also be secured so it can't become airborne in high winds. Toxic or explosive materials need to be stored and handled appropriately, and rebars should be capped to prevent injury to workmen and residents. Often, the family moves to temporary housing during a remodel. It may be a good idea to put art collections and other valuables that could

(ARA) - Whether you are upgrading a kitchen, adding on a master suite, or gutting a newly purchased structure, you need to reassess your insurance needs both before and after your renovation. It's common to plan every major step of the renovation. But one thing that's tough to plan for is the unexpected. What if an oily rag left unattended starts a fire and your home goes up in smoke? The remodeling work done to date may have an impact on your homeowners insurance - unless you let your insurance agent in on the plans ahead of time. For example, Fireman's Fund Insurance Company policyholders are required to let their agent know about any renovation projected to increase the replacement cost of your home by more than $25,000 in order for the crucial full-cost replacement coverage to remain in force. "Your insurance company and your agent can help you find gaps in your coverage related to remodeling and establish appropriate replacement costs," says Don Soss, vice president of personal insurance at Fireman's Fund. "We can also make sure your contractor and subs have adequate liability insurance in case of damage to your prop-
