Customizable magazine and newspaper articles about the financial and lifestyle benefits of remodeling
"Top Five Reasons to Remodel" consumer advertisemens
"May Is National Home Remodeling Month" promotional materials

A how-to kit for implementing the "Remodel Now" campaign
Remodeling fact sheets

The materials are available free to NAHB remodelers and their local councils and will be updated regularly. Visit the Remodeling Month campaign Web site to download and customize these campaign materials.
