HGTV's latest one-hour special, "20 Ways to Add Value to Your Home." is looking for a great remodel with fantastic home owners to show it off for the cameras!Here's what they're looking for:

TV-friendly, fun, energetic homeowners with a good sense of humor to show us their remodel of either a:
- home office
- new roof
- add bathroom
- replace windows
- add deck
- minor kitchen
- minor bath
- siding
Dramatic "before" photos or home video that shows how much better that remodeled space looks today.
A great story about how the remodel "adds value" to their home so that someday if they do decide to sell, they are better off.
Home owners willing to let our crew interview them on camera, film them showing the producers around the house, etc.

Note: The main criteria is that the home is NOT brick in any form and NOT colonial style. (they've already shot many of that kind, and need to show a more balanced look of house styles for the program). They would love to find a Ranch, Tudor, Stucco, Victorian, Bungalow, Log, Timber Frame, Greek, Contemporary, etc.

They also would like to not to show homes that have been completely remodeled but instead ones that are more project-specific.

If anyone has a great remodel with home owners that would be perfect for TV, please contact Jesse Achtenberg at 202-266-8142 or Skye Trimble at 202-747-4622, both of the NAHB Production Group.
