McClurg Remodeling & Construction Services April 2010 Newsletter

Greetings!

Spring is finally here! We would like to thank everyone who stopped by our booths at the 2010 Home & Garden Show. Visitors saw the latest products and trends in home remodeling. Many people stopped by our solar water heating display to learn about how they can "go green" and save money on their water heating bills. The show was a great success, one of the best in years.
 
If this is the year you plan to renovate or remodel, you may want to read our article on Remodeling Magazine's 2009-2010 report on "Cost vs.Value." It shows regional averages for the cost of several popular remodeling projects and the expected value at resale.
