A Renovating Couple Gains Their Urban Chops

Imahe
Classic design and deep color tones anchor a home for new New Yorkers The move to New York from the West Coast landed Jeremy, an advertising executive, and Chris, a nurse managing an emergency department, in a 778 -square-foot co-op in the developing neighborhood of Hudson Yards. A "simple" tiling job that crumbled while living there led the couple to the bigger renovation that they had been saving up for.  With each of their "must-haves" in mind, they posted their project on Sweeten , a free service matching renovators with vetted general contractors and found a Sweeten design-build firm. The result? Herringbone floors, an array of new custom millwork-and sound advice to share with future renovators. Guest blog post by Sweeten homeowner Jeremy A first-and obvious-lesson in renovating: it really is harder in New York.

At the paint store coffee pot, Brian's 2019 painting predictions…

Imahe
Two days ago, I was dropping of flyers at local paint stores about the  2019 Painting Profits Summit. There was a little bit of a line to talk to the clerk, so I got a cup of coffee and spoke to an owner named Brian for a while about what he thought the new year held for painters in general and his business specifically. His predictions were – sadly – spot-on as the conversation continued… Brian was what I call vaguely optimistic and hopeful about good things happening in his painting business in 2019.  He told me he thought his sales would be up and things would be better. He had been in business for eight years in our local Chattanooga market. About this time, I found myself doing something that wasn't really my place to do.
