NAPCO Kitchen and Bath Refinishing Products Provides Homeowners With an Alternative Amidst Building Material Shortage
Stop home improvement headaches of extended delays and outrageous pricing due to global supply shortages and transportation delays on most building materials; refinishing is ideal for updating kitchens and baths.
SKOKIE, Ill., Oct. 5, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- According to a recent NAHB/Wells Fargo Housing Market Index (HMI) survey, a majority of builders reported a shortage in cabinets, ceramic tiles, plumbing fixtures and fittings, and more than 90% reported a shortage in plywood, oriented strand board (OSB) and plywood. And, according to Pew Research, with 71% of people currently working from home, many want to upgrade their homes as they spend more time in it. Refinishing solutions, like those offered by NAPCO, Ltd., are an ideal alternative to update kitchens and bathrooms as resurfacing requires zero raw materials for rebuilding.
Builders don't have to pass on remodeling jobs. Many have chosen to increase their skills during the past year by learning how to refinish bathrooms and kitchens at NAPCO's professional refinishing training classes. Refinishing provides an alternative remodeling method to help satisfy homeowners' needs. Expanding your skills and services to include bathroom and kitchen refinishing is an excellent way to continuously provide options to homeowners so they can improve their surroundings, without worrying about material shortages.
"Our 3-day refinishing class has been sold out months in advance as more people see the opportunity, not to mention profitability, by adding refinishing to their business and skillset," said Steve Zamborsky, R&D and Technical Manager and Trainer at NAPCO, Ltd. "It's an exciting time to be in the refinishing industry. Not only do we get to help others find new careers, but we also help 'recycle' kitchens and bathrooms that don't need a complete rehaul but could be improved with a 'refinishing touch.'"
While COVID restrictions and telework has required people to spend more time in their homes, the enjoyment of an upgraded kitchen or bath is not the only upside. Kitchen and bath remodels also tend to bring higher return rates for homeowners. According to House Beautiful, minor kitchen upgrades recoup 77.6 percent of what you spend. And according to Remodeling magazine, a midrange bathroom upgrade recoups 64% of what you spend.
