A green lifestyle is not a passing trend. Embrace this eco-friendly fad by renovating your home in an environmentally conscious way. Here are a few of the latest green remodeling trends to help you get started.
Make the Most of It
You may not love your kitchen layout or the cabinetry in the master bathroom, but instead of selling the house and upgrading to something more your style, consider a remodel. Make the most out of the space you have by calling in a professional to do a few upgrades. It’s a lot more energy efficient and makes more financial sense as well.
Go Natural
One of the biggest design trends right now is bamboo flooring and cabinetry. It’s all-natural, beautiful, and made from a renewable energy source. Ask an experienced contracting company about installing it in your home.
Consider Low-Impact Materials
When you’re planning a green home renovation, it makes sense to choose products and building materials that have a low impact on the earth. Try using salvaged materials or recycled glass. These materials help create a weathered look in an otherwise brand new design.
It is also a good idea to talk with your contracting company about usinglocal building materials to reduce the long-distance travel of resources. Your contractor may have a few other ideas about green remodeling, so don’t be afraid to speak up. Even the smallest changes to your renovation can bring about big changes for the environment.
