10 Ways to Reduce Cooling Costs This Summer
Can’t stand the heat? You don’t have to get out of the kitchen! We’ve got better, more energy-efficient ways to help you stay cool this summer and hopefully save you money.
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, the best indoor temperature for your home during summer is 78 degrees. If you’re like us, though, that sounds too dang high! Luckily, we know plenty of renovation remedies to increase home efficiency while curbing temperatures and energy bills.
How to Choose the Right Color Palette for Your Home
The saying goes, “A rose by any other name would smell as sweet," but would a house of a different color be as inviting?
Whether you realize it consciously or not, color is fundamental to the world around us: in nature, in fashion, in your loved one’s features, and at home. Choosing a hue can be powerful because of our personal associations with colors and how subjective our perceptions are. If you ever disagreed about the color of an object (maybe a certain dress is blue/black or white/gold), you know what we mean.
Just as your taste in clothing and type of car reflect your personality, so do the colors of your house and the rooms inside. Color psychology has the power to affect your mood, energy levels, and that of your guests.

And alright already, we’ll concede we’ve written about bathroom remodels and renovations a few times on our blog.
Good vs. Bad: What’s The Difference When It Comes To Contractors?
You ever heard of him? This character might have promised top-tier quality that appears sub-par after installation. Maybe the estimated quotes increased significantly… then doubled… then tripled? Is this “quick” remodel past the estimated time? Before you shared details about your upcoming home remodel, you got at least one earful about the capital B - “Bad Contractor.” You’ve undoubtedly heard warnings from friends and family that ranged from cautionary tales to horror stories.
