Tax Credits for 2012-2013 Home Improvements - North Carolina

Home Improvement Tax Credits for 2012-1013 Help Homeowners Save Money

Tax Credits on Energy Efficient Home Improvements from IRS

With the economy still slow, many homeowners are taking advantage of little known tax credits, that can save homeowners a lot of money when making home improvements. As part of the deal that lawmakers in Washington D.C. passed in order to avert the "fiscal cliff", at the beginning of 2013, the American Taxpayer Relief Act was also carried over into 2013 as well. With the extension of these tax credits, homeowners can get a tax credit for up to $500 of the cost of improving your home. The extension has been made retroactively, meaning home improvements made in 2012, will also be eligible for the tax credit as well.

Only home improvements that improve the overall energy efficient home are eligible. However, with homeowners in the Carolina's and all over looking to save money where ever they can, saving money on your energy bill is only an added bonus to making a home improvement. Duke Power raised rates on both North Carolina and South Carolina consumers, making energy efficient home improvements a booming industry in the Charlotte, NC area. Here is a list of some of the energy efficient, and tax credit eligible home improvement products:

• Insulation
• Replacement Windows (with Energy Star seal)
• Replacement Doors (with Energy Star seal)
• Some Roofing Products - Metal Roofing, Coatings, and more
• Central Air Conditioners
• Heat Pumps
• Furnaces
• And more. See the Energy Star Website for more information http://www.energystar.gov/index.cfm?c=tax_credits.tx_index

The credit is designed to cover up to 10% of the material cost, excluding labor to install. As you can see from the list, these are some major home improvements, making it easy to get the full $500 tax credit for homeowners this year. You should always conduct a tax professional when filing your taxes, our article is for informational purposes only. For more information on IRS tax credits, please visit the IRS Website at: http://www.irs.gov/uac/Tax-Credits-Available-for-Certain-Energy-Efficient-Home-Improvements

Energy efficient home improvements are some of the best investments for homeowners, looking to live in their home for another 5-10 years. With the increase in energy savings over the years, the initial cost of the home improvement, is generally paid back to the customer, in the form of savings on energy bills. On top of all this, making an energy efficient home improvement is also good for the environment.

If your a Charlotte NC homeowner or business looking to make an energy efficient improvement to your home or building, then give MB Construction Company of Salisbury NC a call at 704-267-7763. We can help lower your power bill, and improve your home at the same time.

Pergo Flooring Installation in Concord NC - Durable Flooring Product Review

Pergo Flooring Installations & Advantages for going with quality Laminate Flooring

Product Review of Pergo Flooring Material after installation in Concord, NC home.

When it comes to laminate flooring, nothing gets better then the original, and that's the Pergo laminate floor system. Lowe's and Home Depot sell Pergo products, so they are not very hard to find. As you have seen from many of the Pergo television commercials, they advertise high traffic durability, using a veterinarian's office where Pergo is installed, showing how well Pergo stands up against pet traffic. If you are a pet owner, Pergo is the best way to go, as far as durability is concerned in the home with pet traffic. In addition to superior durability to other laminate floor products on the market, Pergo is affordably priced and a wide variety of styles and colors to choose from. As a product overall, we would give Pergo high marks on durability, appearance, and variety.  Here is a sample of one of the Pergo flooring products MB Construction Company just installed in a Concord, NC area home.

http://www.lowes.com/pd_322374-35938-LF000124_0__?productId=3191391&Ntt=pergo+laminate+flooring&pl=1&currentURL=%3FNtt%3Dpergo%2Blaminate%2Bflooring&facetInfo=

Here are some pictures of the finish product after installation. It's hard to tell from there photo of 1 square foot to picture the final product. So see the pictures for what this particular pergo flooring product looks after installation.

As you can see, this product goes really great in hallways, bedrooms, and other living areas in the home. With installation of laminate flooring starting at $1.00/foot, sometimes customers like to buy the product before installation. Leaving additional time, and proper installation guidelines of having  the flooring in the home before installing, and time do do your own carpet tear out to save additional money, as this homeowner in Concord NC did.

Charlotte, NC Kitchen and Bath Remodeling Service Trends for 2013

Kitchen and Bath Remodel Trends in Charlotte for 2013

Sales Increases in MB Construction Company of Salisbury, NC's, kitchen and bath remodeling trends.

It seems as if the Charlotte, NC home and remodelling industry in Charlotte, NC and surrounding areas has picked  up a little in 2013. From our business perspective at MB Construction Company of Salisbury, NC, our Charlotte NC business has been up in the year 2013.  From a recessionary recovery still lacking steam, many homeowners in Charlotte were current on their mortgages, and because of instability in the economy, these homeowners were basically forced into 3-5 years of equity. Also new lending laws have made it harder for homeowners who have stayed current on their mortgages, simply don't want the hassle of selling or larger down payment for moving into a larger home. With the combined factors, trends for our company's kitchen and bath remodelling services,  have seemed to lend homeowners choosing home improvements over building new.

As our blog is intended to be an idea generator for our potential customers, MB Construction Company of Salisbury, NC, would like to share some of the information we have seen in our trends.  Some items like mosaic tile back splashes in bathrooms, and tile shower installations, really add some pop to outdated bathroom fixtures. Just like new cabinets in the kitchen, or a new stove and counter tops.

Below is a list of our top selling kitchen and bath designs, that are trending in Charlotte, NC and the surrounding areas. 

Top 5 trends in our Charlotte NC, Kitchen and Bath Remodelling Services

1. And the winner is...tile flooring in the kitchen and bathroom areas of the home. Tile looks really good in bathrooms and kitchens, and whether ceramic or porcelain tile, it is very durable and can hold up in two or three of the most used rooms of your home.

2. Coming in a close second to tile flooring, mosaic tile back splashes are very popular right now, in both the kitchen and the bathroom. They look really good and unique to the style of the colors the homeowners pick out for them. Affordable pricing rates have made mosaic tile back splashes, popular among Charlotte, NC homeowners this year of 2013.

3. New appliances seem to be trending very well this year, though based on just MB Construction Company of Salisbury NC sales, appliances seem to be selling very well this year. Our customers often need cabinets moved or cut, leading to a lot of small jobs for our company, in assisting with appliance installation.

4. New Cabinets in the kitchen. Many homeowners in Charlotte, NC are in tract homes, and often didn't have the more affordable options they offer now with cabinet design and cabinet installation.

5. Interior Painting Services. With big box retailers offering classes to customers on interior painting techniques, and do it yourself classes, a lot of homeowners in the Charlotte, NC area are doing their own interior painting. However, some homeowners just don't like to paint, so it has kept construction companies that have kitchen and bath painting services busy, and keeping it still one of the most common home improvement projects for homeowners in the Charlotte, NC area.

Although the year is young, we have seen an increase in these top 5 home improvement services in 2013 in the Charlotte area, among our own personal data through sales at MB Construction Company of Salisbury. Our blog is intended to give homeowners some ideas, when looking to remodel their homes. If your a homeowner in the Charlotte, NC area, looking to make improvements to your home, then give MB Construction Company of Salisbury NC a call today at 704-267-7763.
