Homeowners considering renovations can obtain great ideas from how-to television shows, magazines, newspapers and the internet, but careful planning is needed to keep the dream alive, said Peter Simpson, CEO of the Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association.

To help you make informed decisions, the GVHBA Renovation Council will present its popular fall consumer home renovation seminar on Tuesday, November 24, 2009.  The seminar s from 7-9pm; doors open at 6pm.  Please arrive early in order to visit over 30 displays of renovation-related products & services, gather printed material and discuss plans with renovation and design pros.

Despite a slow market, a record $7 billion will be spent on home renovation and improvement in BC this year (65% of those dollars in the Lower Mainland alone).  So be sure to do your homework before signing a renovation contract.

Register for the seminar (IT’S FREE!!!) by calling 778-565-4288 or Email.

These seminars are a fantastic opportunity for the marriage of renovators and homeowners.  All who attended benefit from having so many qualified renovators and motivated homeowners in the same room as well as suppliers from many different categories. The 1 ½ hours before the speakers took the podium was a frenzy of information being passed from renovators to homeowners. The speakers were informative and gave homeowners an understanding of expectations, what to look for in a contractor and how to deal with a major renovation. We at Klondike Contracting are proud of our booth and look forward to many opportunities that usually come from such a forum.  We hope to see you there for the Fall Renovation Seminar.
