An area 'green' renovator commented that greening a home sometimes means learning to love what you have already-creatively reorganizing or creatively adapting what you have to meet your needs and improve your home. For example, do you need all new cabinets, or would refacing the cabinets work? That would save on the amount of materials that need to be both purchased and discarded, significantly cutting costs and improving aesthetics. Or perhaps you need only a new countertop, and the cabinets might only need a paint job and some new hardware!
There is a concept called 'greenwashing' in the market--that is, misrepresenting the eco-friendliness of a property or product. Don't get stuck! Having a guide, and professional recommendations will help you avoid falling for misleading claims. Choosing the right team will make the project go more smoothly. You can let us do the research for you, and trust that the improvements you make will translate into more profitability and greater marketability for your home.
