Mowgli decided to turn Kristen’s brand-new day bed into his favorite hangout.

(Mary Carol Garrity/TNS)

By Mary Carol Garrity, Tribune News Service (TNS) Kristen, a designer at Nell Hill’s, spends her days raving about highperformance fabrics. She’s a big believer in the miracle fabrics that refuse to stain. But she had never really tested them out in her own home.

Then, her fur baby Mowgli decided to turn Kristen’s brandnew day bed into his favorite hangout. Kristen had the foresight to cover the daybed in a performance fabric, so when her husband called out to her, “Look at how cute this is! Mowgli is sleeping on the day bed,” her heart only skipped a few beats. Now that she’s seen firsthand how the fabric handles Mowgli’s hair, dirty paws and even the peanut butter from his dog bones, she’s been amazed. The day bed still looks new.

For all of us who long for lightcolored furniture, this is a game changer. We no longer have to select upholstery the color of mud if we have kids or pets (or in my case, a very messy husband). Or opt for patterns that will hide our friend’s party fouls, like spilled dip or splashed drinks.

If we like, we can now cover our furniture in snow white fabric that looks like linen, but wears like iron. That’s because high-

performance fabrics are light-years ahead of where they were even just a few years ago, when they were stiff and hard. If you’re looking for new furniture for holiday entertaining, here’s why you should give performance fabrics a look.

You will have stunning furniture that can also handle all that life dishes out. Here’s proof: Carly, one of our designers, received a panicked call from one of our customers, a young mom whose

3-year-old child had just taken a black Sharpie and drawn a pretty picture of a house and trees on their brand-new white sofa. Carly told her to breathe and follow the manufacture’s cleaning method.

Every bit of the Sharpie art came out!

One of my friends asked us to help her design her living room, a light and bright space filled with blues and creams. This is how the room is supposed to look: dogfree.

But, this is how it looks the minute she turns her back: A lounge for her dogs. Daisy, her standard poodle with perpetually muddy paws, makes herself at home on the sofa when no one is looking. And Tess sneaks in whenever she can to bask in the sun.

I wish I had high-performance fabrics years ago, when I hosted my boisterous family for Christmas Day. After Dan cooked a wonderful feast, we moved to the living room to open gifts.

That’s when my 90-somethingyear-old mom accidentally spilled her red wine all over my white sofa. If I had had Sunbrella or Krypton or Revolution fabric, the wine would have wiped right up.

This living room, a light and bright space filled with blues and creams, looks dogfree. (Mary Carol Garrity/TNS)

HOME IMPROVEMENT

HOME PROJECTS to kick off at summer’s end MAJOR REMODELS Home remodels can be a great investment, but they can also be invasive. Starting a major remodel while the weather is still mild will make it easier for your pros to do prep work and store their tools and materials outside and out of your way. And beginning a kitchen renovation before winter hits will allow you to use your grill and outdoor eating space while your indoor space is out of commission.

In many areas, pouring a new driveway while the weather’s warm will allow it to dry before the freeze-thaw cycles start — resulting in a flaw-free surface.

is a good time to tackle a complete roof replacement.

Labor Day unofficially marks the end of summer, but there’s still plenty of time to cross projects off your summer to-do list.

According to HomeAdvisor data, homeowners commonly start these projects around the beginning of September:

TREE SERVICE Dead branches and broken limbs can pose a hazard to your home all year long. But as the temperatures drop and winter storms blow in, they can become a real danger to your family and your property. Getting those trees pruned, trimmed and treated by a pro — before the seasons change — not only eliminates this threat, but it also helps to prevent unsightly debris from piling up in the future. What’s more, it will ensure that backyard elm or weeping willow will be thriving once spring arrives.

ROOFING REPAIR AND INSTALLATION Hiring a pro to address roofrelated problems like loose shingles, leaks, damaged flashing and bad ventilation will ensure that your home is both warm and secure as colder weather hits. And if your roof is beyond repair, now

September 8-9, 2018

GUTTER CLEANING Clogged gutters can cause ice dams, foundational damage and leaky ceilings. Fortunately, removing debris from your gutters is simple — and DIY-able. Lean a ladder against your home and clear away any sticks, leaves and other fragments. You can also use a leaf blower to quickly eliminate gutter gunk. Hire a pro if you notice any damage or don’t have the time to tackle this project.

Professionals will keep your gutters in good health and provide quick solutions to potential problems.

LANDSCAPING September is an ideal time to prep your yard for chillier temperatures. Seeding, trimming perennials and planting bulbs, shrubs and trees can ensure your yard is healthy come spring.

It’s also a good idea to pack up furniture that could be affected by cold weather. Plastic and ceramics can become brittle and break in lower temperatures.

Loveland Reporter-Herald – AtHomeColorado.com

NEW WINDOW INSTALLATION Now is the perfect time to get that window replacement project underway. Replacing drafty, outdated windows with a more energy-efficient alternative will create a cozier, more comfortable home interior come fall. And the money you’ll save on your utility bill will last well beyond the springtime thaw.

DRIVEWAYS A new driveway is an ideal way to spruce up the outside of your home. And pouring your new driveway while the weather’s warm will allow it to dry before the freeze-thaw cycles of autumn and winter, resulting in a flaw-free surface.

DECKS AND PORCHES Between foot traffic and sun exposure, your deck can take a beating during the warmer months. This makes the end of summer a prime time to touch up any damage or deterioration.

This is also a great time to install a porch or deck. In addition to better working weather, a latesummer installation will allow you to enjoy your new deck or porch during the cool fall weather — just in time for autumn cookouts and football watch parties!

Home buyer relocation tips

SUZANNE PLEWES RE/MAX Alliance

Selling and buying a home can be a complex process.

Relocating to a different state can make it even more complicated.

Here are a few relocation tips to help simplify your move and

reduce your stress.

Seek Assistance from Local Professionals It can be difficult to select a city/ town and neighborhood without direct first-hand knowledge.

Information that you find online is not always accurate or complete.

This is why working with local professionals can be invaluable.

Rely on locals to tell you what areas to focus on based on your needs and preferences. Be sure to use a local real estate agent, loan officer, attorney, etc.

Protect Your Belongings Packing for a long-distance move requires a different approach than a local move. Everything is move likely to get damaged when traveling long distances. So, be sure to secure all items for your move. This means using generous bubble wrap and packing paper around fragile items. Filling empty space so that boxes are likely to collapse, wrapping furniture pieces with thick blankets, etc. If you will be keeping any items in storage either temporarily or for extended periods, be sure to select a climatecontrolled space. Extreme hot or

cold temperatures can also cause damage.

Hire a Reputable Mover It’s also important to hire a reputable company for your move.

Check the Better Business Bureau for any complaints. Select movers based on more than merely price.

You often get what you pay for and using a cheap mover can sometimes cost you more in the long run.

Get Organized Staying organized can go a long way in reducing your stress. Think about all of your past moves and how often you went hunting for a particular item, not knowing what box it may be in or if you remembered to pack it at all! As you start packing, be sure to put aside the following: UÊ Important documents (that you may need before, during, or shortly after your move).

DESIGN RECIPES

How to pick the PERFECT SOFA

By Cathy Hobbs, Tribune News Service, (TNS) For many homeowners, a sofa is a key investment. Typically not considered to be an impulse purchase, most seek to make a sofa purchase perhaps only once or twice. From construction, comfort and versatility to the ability to reupholster, here are some key elements to keep in mind.

A low sofa helps make a space with low ceilings feel more open. (Design Recipes)

to last.

CONSTRUCTION Construction is key when it comes to the longevity and durability of a sofa. Sofas constructed of hardwoods (such as walnut) will outlast those made of softer woods such as pine. Not sure? Ask the sofa manufacturer about construction materials.

Another important ask relates to sofa springs. Metal coils often break. An eight-way hand-tied sofa spring system is preferable, and a signature of a well-made, crafted sofa. Expect to pay a bit more, but it will be worth it in the long run to have a sofa that is built 6

AT HOME

CUSHIONS Love the feel of fluffy down?

While this may serve you well when it comes to a bed pillow, down will likely fall flat long term in a sofa. The reality is down will compress and at one point flatten.

Sofa cushions made of foam are a more durable choice. Still not convinced? One option is a sofa in which the seat cushions are made of foam and side pillows are made of a less dense material.

UPHOLSTERY FABRIC A well-kept secret of interior

designers is to use hospitality grade fabrics, even in residential settings. Why? Durability. These days, commercial fabrics are fun, modern, fresh and easily relatable in a residential environment.

The downside is hospitality and commercial fabrics do tend to cost a bit more and may come in limited colors and patterns. The upside is the durability factor; spills will easily be able to be wiped away.

CONFIGURATIONS Should you go with a sectional?

Perhaps modern, low and sleek is your style, or high-backed and

Loveland Reporter-Herald – AtHomeColorado.com

UÊ Precious items (such as security blankets and toys for your kids).

UÊ Essentials that need to be unpacked first.

By putting these aside, you can prevent them from being accidentally packed or lost. If you are packing them for the move, clearly mark the boxes so they can be easily located and unpacked first.

Summary Although the above items don’t seem overly complicated, it’s surprising how often they can be missed. With these few simple tips, you can dramatically improve the ease of your move.

comfy?

Regardless of your taste and style, what should most determine your sofa selection is your space. So often a sofa looks and feels out of place because it is the inappropriate size, scale or configuration.

In a space with low ceilings, low, modern and sleek may be the best choice, especially if a view needs to be preserved. In open spaces, a sectional sofa is helpful to define and create a lounge space for a large group. Social areas such as family rooms and even dens may be best suited for sofas that may be more plush and comfy.

A note of caution: Oversized furniture often makes a room feel crowded and seldom is “buying the set” successful. Multiple pieces can create a look that is overly “matchy” and crowded. Looking for an alternative? Consider placing two chaises together to create a single sofa or a long onearmed sofa or loveseat.

REAL ESTATE MATTERS

A great team and strong knowledge of real estate is essential when buying a fixer-upper

By Ilyce Glink and Samuel J. Tamkin, Tribune Content Agency

Q

: My wife and I currently live in the Northern Virginia area and will be retiring soon. We plan to move to the Raleigh. We both enjoy watching shows about buying fixer-uppers.

We’re wondering how we might go about locating a company to help us fix up homes in the Raleigh area. How would we be able to check out the creativity and quality of their work? Anything else we should think about? Thank you.

A

: We, too, have watched and enjoyed shows on TV that generally depict the process of buying homes, renovating those homes and then selling them for a profit as a positive experience. Life always seems to work out -- and typically in 60 minutes or less.

But “reality” TV is one thing, and the real world of real estate is quite another. We’re not saying that what you see on TV is not real, but you have to be a little skeptical. Real estate purchases, remodels and resales rarely go according to plan; just like in a real court of law, cases aren’t argued and decided in less than an hour.

That said, lots of people have made a great living buying, fixing up and reselling (or renting) properties. And Raleigh (like other hot markets) has a strong economic climate, low unemployment and lots of fairly moderately priced homes. So, it’s a pretty good place to start.

The first thing you need to have is a lot deeper knowledge of the local real estate market. If you don’t understand real estate or the market in which you plan to invest, you’ll set yourself up for a boatload of expensive trouble.

If you understand real estate, you’re one step ahead of most other investors. By this we mean that you understand what drives real estate markets, you know the different types of housing options that are available, you know the differences between neighborhoods and school districts, and you

September 8-9, 2018

are up to date on current crime statistics, home sale statistics and any business issues affecting real estate, among various other important factors.

Once you have an understanding of the basics of real estate, you also need some knowledge of local construction methods, a design sense, and the ability to understand numbers and costs. You can’t just pick up any old piece of real estate at a bargain price, put in $100,000 and make money. You must understand whether the market will support improving that home and how much you can put into the home before you price yourself out of the market.

So, build a great team of people to help you out. Start with a smart real estate agent who will help you understand the local neighborhoods. Perhaps the agent will know some great contractors and subcontractors (painters, tilers, carpenters, etc.) that can help. Finally, if you’re doing major work, you’ll probably need the services of an architect who can help with some of the structural or design issues, and an attorney who can help close on the property or who can help with pulling permits or crafting lien waivers for the work you plan to have done.

Once you’ve built a good team, you might be ready to tackle your first project. However, if you’re looking to find someone to do it all for you, like a turnkey developer, we’re not sure how you would find that person.

Remember, everyone up and down the chain in real estate makes money from every aspect of the real estate transaction.

You need to know your costs and understand expenses. If you have a contractor or construction supervisor do everything for you, you might not have much (or any) money left over as profit.

Have you ever noticed how in the TV shows they sometimes have problems that come up, but those problems generally get solved in what seems like an instant? In our years of investing in real estate, we’ve found that never to be the case.

Many years ago when we were working on a home renovation, the general contractor went belly up. Sam knew he was going broke three weeks before the contractor did. Finding another general contractor and new tradespeople would have taken weeks, if not months, and cost us thousands of dollars more than we bargained for. Instead, Sam took over as the general contractor, and we wound up only paying a couple thousand extra, and we were able to ultimately move back into our home on time.

Keep in mind that real estate investing isn’t for the faint-hearted and you have to go in with your eyes wide open, knowing that few deals will play out the way they do on TV. With that attitude, a great team behind you and a ton of research and smarts, you’ll probably break even on your first

Loveland Reporter-Herald – AtHomeColorado.com

deal, or maybe even make a few bucks.

If that’s how it plays out, know that in the world of real estate investments that’s a huge win, and you’ll likely do better on the next one. Good luck!

Parade of HOMES

NOCO HBA Annual

COVERPROFILE

Boundless Ideas and Inspiration for All ANNUAL PARADE OF HOMES KICKS OFF THIS WEEKEND

By Wendy McMillan, At Home

I

n the market for a new home? Planning to upgrade your existing home with some strategic design? Or perhaps you’re one of many who simply love a chance to browse among the best?

Whatever your situation, the annual NOCO HBA Parade of Homes, scheduled for September 7, 8, 9 and September 14, 15, 16, has something for you.

At the NOCO HBA Parade of Homes, attendees have the opportunity to tour a wide selection of homes at their own pace, chat with building representatives, even get in the running to win some fancy swag. “I believe there is something here for everyone,” says Janet Hatfield, Resources Development and Membership Services Coordinator for the Home Builders Association of Northern Colorado.

“Whether you’re looking to trade up to a newer home, downsize to a Tiny Home; looking to remodel and want some ideas and innovations that are becoming mainstream, relocating...you name it, we have it.”

This year, the popular event will feature a spectacular, varied line-up, with twentyfive homes located in neighborhoods from Ault to Berthoud, and ranging in price from an $80K Tiny Home to custom luxury homes priced at over $1 million. “People love the variety on display,” Hatfield says. “The Parade of Homes lets you experience home shopping at your own pace, allowing you to enjoy the process, learn and view the neighborhoods. You get more in-depth information about features and benefits than you can get from looking at a listing somewhere.”

Parade of Homes opens up a unique opportunity to tour and explore the top

tier of homes and innovative designs throughout Northern Colorado. Each showcased home is built by a NOCO HBA Member Builder. All homes are open, and most are for sale. Bonus: the event is FREE. Parade hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day, and you can begin the self-guided tour at any home, proceeding at your leisure. Representatives at each home offer participants every opportunity to maximize the experience by spending some informative time asking questions, Hatfield says.

Given the splendid array of styles and examples of craftsmanship, it’s no wonder the HBA of Northern Colorado takes pride in the Parade of Homes as an opportunity to promote the construction industry to young people determining career paths.

Dedicated to high ethical standards, education, and advocacy for the health of the industry and member success, HBA of Northern Colorado puts tremendous work

September 8-9, 2018

into ensuring the event is a true real estate showcase, from home selection to detailed home staging.

“The Building Community is a family,” Hatfield says. “They work alongside each other in developments, refer business to one another. This event gives them a chance to be competitive and really shine as individuals. I love seeing how everyone’s hard work pays off in getting homes ready to show to the public.”

Organizers hope their efforts will inspire prospective industry professionals. “With the current building trends and pace of the

residential construction growth, the labor shortage is one of the biggest challenges that builders and contractors are facing,” Hatfield says. The trades have for many years been looked upon as undesirable career paths for many, when in reality, hourly pay ranges from approximately $12.81 per hour for Construction Worker to $33.40 per hour for Electrician.

The average U.S. Trades daily wage ranges from approximately $65.00 per day for Commercial Electrician to $109 per day for Apprentice Electrician. The average hourly wage in Colorado for construction workers typically starts from $10.24 and goes up to $22.11. Construction offers many opportunities for making a great living, without a college loan to repay, Hatfield says.

Regardless of what you are looking for, no doubt you will find plenty to take away at the 2018 NOCO HBA Parade of Homes. Grab a guide and check online to plan your personal tour.

Then relax, enjoy, and relish the possibilities for finding, building, or improving the home of your dreams.

MAKE THE MOST OF THE PARADE OF HOMES Prior to beginning your tour, be sure to check out The Parade of Homes Magazine Tour Guide, which will be inserted in the Loveland Reporter Herald newspapers on Saturday, September 2 and in the Greeley Tribune and Fort Collins Coloradoan on September 5 as well as online at nocohba.com/ parade-of-homes-2018. Copies will further be available at each site. The guide is your companion on your journey, Hatfield says.

Each page provides in-depth details on each home, smart home and green home features, a list of NOCO HBA Members who contributed to the home, space to write notes, and a ballot for the People’s Choice Award.

To view any homes privately, please contact the builder directly to schedule an appointment.

ASK ANGIE’S LIST

How do I flush my water heater?

By Paul F. P. Pogue, Angie’s List Angie’s List (TNS) Much like changing your car’s oil, a water heater needs regular maintenance for top performance. A water heater flush clears out sediment and minerals such as calcium and lime, which could impede your heater’s performance.

Whether you have a gas or electric heater, sediment buildup represents a serious problem.

Experts recommend that you drain and flush the tank once a year to keep it in good condition and extend its life. Fall is a good time to flush the tank if you haven’t done so already.

You can expect to pay between $100 and $200 if you hire a professional for this service.

Tankless water heaters also benefit from cleaning and flushing. Although they don’t carry the same large amount of

instructions should explain this. Turn the gas control knob to the “pilot” position on a gas heater. For an electric heater, turn off the circuit breaker and disconnect the power supply.

2. Turn off the water supply valve.

3. Turn on the hot water faucet on a nearby sink, and keep it running while you work. This will prevent a vacuum from forming in the lines.

4. Attach your hose to the drain valve. Run it to a drain, driveway or empty bucket.
