luxuriously soft fibers that maintain their integrity for years. WEATHERED AND RECLAIMEDWeathered and distressed floors are taking hold across multiple categories. This finish increasessturdiness and allows the product to withstand the high traffic and heavy wear of large families andpets. In addition to distressed looks, homeowners now have the option of “reclaimed” wood floors.These floors are recycled from dismantled buildings, disassembled furniture, wood and agriculturalscrap. Repurposing saves money, is green and offers unique, designer-quality looks.HIGH STYLE AND DURABLE LUXURYManufacturers are also introducing flooring of all varieties with add-ons such as fur, tassels, 14Kgold and Swarovski crystals. Hard surfaces, including tile, are incorporating precious metals while soft surfaces, like carpet andarea rugs, are showcasing jewelry-grade crystals, animal skins and metallic fibers in the final prod-ucts.“Consumer demands for durability, low maintenance and lower prices have led to innovation andvariety across all categories,” said Tom Jennings of the WFCA. Jennings says that consumers expect their purchases to withstand the test of time and be eco friend-ly. As a result, manufacturers have created a variety of low-maintenance, affordable options thatmeet the demand for comfort and style.COVERING CONSUMER INTERESTSThe WFCA is the floorcovering industry’slargest advocacy organ-ization, representingfloor covering retailers,contractors and alliedservice providersthroughout NorthAmerica.The Association’s web-site offers detailedinformation and practi-cal tips on every floor-ing category available,including carpet, hard-wood, laminate, ceram-ic, porcelain, resilient,vinyl, cork, stone, andarea rugs.

(NAPS)—Selling a house in today’s marketcan be a challenge. The solution may be tothink outside the box—or, in this case, outsidethe structure. In the past, a little paint and some minor reno-vations might have done the trick, but with somany homes for sale, homeowners are find-ing interesting new ways to boost curb appealand buyer interest. While steps such as cleaning up and invest-ing in some landscapes can still deliverresults, more homeowners are attracting
buyer interest with a system of exterior insulation known as“Outsulation®.” Exterior insulation has been shown to lower energy bills and raise buyerinterest. Susan Malone of Warwick, Rhode Island, used Outsulation byDryvit to replace the drab clapboard on her home with a new stonelikeexterior complete with architectural flourishes and decorative windowaccents. The makeover raised her appraisal value and attracted newbuyers.“The transformation of my home has been nothing short of amazing—both from the standpoint of how much more beautiful it is and the effectthe renovation had on increasing the value of my home. I have been ableto save so much money on my energy bills,” said Malone. She usedOutsulation by Dryvit, which lets you create an entirely new image. It canbe adhesively or mechanically fastened over a building code–approvedwater-resistive barrier to plywood or OSB substrate.The system offers the look of any traditional finish, including brick, lime-stone, stucco and stone, plus three-dimensional details like arches, win-dow borders, decorative columns and dramatic doorways. Besides improving the way it looks, such exterior insulation makes ahome more energy efficient. It reduced air leakage in Malone’s home by19 percent—the equivalent of closing up a hole in the wall that would bethe size of a soccer ball, or of leaving your front door open for 25 min-utes every day.The Outsulation system reduced Malone’s energy bills by 35 percent andhelped dampen noise.“My dogs used to wake me up barking at just about any noise they wouldhear, including the airplanes constantly coming and going over thehouse,” said Malone, who lives in a fly zone. “But since the renovation,the dogs don’t hear all the sounds they used to, so we are all getting a
lot more sleep.”For more information, call (800) 556-7752; in Canada, call (800) 263-3308; or visit www.dryvithomes.com.
