Bathtub Refinishing Charlotte NC | Bathtub Makeover Wizards

Bathtub Makeover Wizards provides homeowners with a low cost alternative to upgrade their bathrooms in a matter of hours. Founder, Graham Clark has announced that they are now offering their bathtub refinishing services in Georgia. Clark said "A feature of our service is that we don't only concentrate on the larger cities such as Charlotte. We also take care of smaller towns such as Gastonia and Asheville. Bathtub Makeover Wizards make it easy for local homeowners to get in touch with one of their approved contractors for a free no obligation quotation by phone or via their website. For homeowners who are not familiar with the process of refinishing bathtubs, Clark explains... "The old soiled / chipped tub is prepared for resurfacing with industrial strength cleaners before applying an epoxy based glaze. When done professionally, this makes an old bathtub look like new again and should last for another 7 - 10 years." The main benefits of tub resurfacing compared to replacement are: * Saving Money - The cost of reglazing a bathtub is far more affordable than the cost of replacing the tub completely. * Fewer Disruptions - Reglazing a bathtub is done right in the bathroom so homeowners don't have to avoid using the bathroom or the rest of the home while it's being done. * Home Improvement - A recently refinished bathtub not only adds value to a home, it also makes it a lot easier to sell one day. ...read more

Energy Efficient Window Treatments

BLINDS Window blinds—vertical or horizontal slat-type—are more effective at reducing summer heat gain than winter heat loss. INTERIOR BLINDS Because of the numerous openings between the slats, it's difficult to control heat loss through interior window blinds, but the slats offer flexibility in the summer. Unlike shades, you can adjust the slats to control light and ventilation. For example, when completely closed and lowered on a sunny window, highly reflective blinds can reduce heat gain by around 45%. They can also be adjusted to block and reflect direct sunlight onto a light-colored ceiling. A light-colored ceiling will diffuse the light without much heat or glare. EXTERIOR BLINDS Exterior roller blinds are usually made of wood, steel, aluminum, or vinyl. They're mounted above the window, and side channels guide them as they're lowered and raised. When you lower these blinds completely, their slats meet and provide shade. If partially raised, the blinds allow some air and daylight to enter through windows. DRAPERIES A drapery's ability to reduce heat loss and gain depends on several factors, including fabric type (closed or open weave) and color. With such a wide variety of draperies available, it's difficult to generalize about their energy performance. During summer days, you should close draperies on windows receiving direct sunlight to prevent heat gain. Studies demonstrate that medium-colored draperies with white-plastic backings can reduce heat gains by 33%. Draperies also stay cooler in the summer than some other window treatments because their pleats and folds lose heat through convection. When drawn during cold weather, most conventional draperies can reduce heat loss from a warm room up to 10%. Therefore, in winter, you should close all draperies at night, as well as draperies that don't receive sunlight during the day. To reduce heat exchange or convection, draperies should be hung as close to windows as possible. Also let them fall onto a windowsill or floor. For maximum effectiveness, you should install a cornice at the top of a drapery or place the drapery against the ceiling. Then seal the drapery at both sides and overlap it in the center. You can use Velcro or magnetic tape to attach drapes to the wall at the sides and bottom. If you do these things, you may reduce heat loss up to 25%. Two draperies hung together will create a tighter air space than just one drapery. One advantage is that the room-side drapery will maintain around the same temperature as the interior space, adding to a room's comfort. ...read more

Garage windows are windows that are placed into garage doors to give them a more distinctive look, and on some occasions to let in more natural light. Sometimes, these windows are too high up for most people to be functional in the way windows usually do. Instead, they are just decorative, though they could have another function of allowing some extra light into a garage. If you are considering these, it is recommended you speak to your local garage door supplier to see what they can do. ...read more
