May is National Home Remodeling Month

Spring is the most popular time to remodel one’s own castle. What better time of the year for National Home Remodeling Month.

Many home owners want to try their hand at remodeling their home themselves; this May help educate consumers on the importance of hiring a professional remodeler to safely make their house a home for a lifetime. The Remodelors Council has created a consumer campaign on How and When to Hire a Professional Remodeler.

Throughout May, be sure to take advantage of the opportunities surrounding National Remodeling Month to help publicize the industry and emphasize to homeowners the importance of hiring qualified, professional remodelers. Contact your local council to find out about plans for the month and join this important campaign.

The National Remodelors Council will have downloadable material to help promote National Remodeling Month including proclamations, public service announcements, press releases and articles , visit www.nahb.org/remodelingmonth to view materials.
