Confidence boost

Embarking on a remodeling project can be daunting. As refurbishments take time to complete, choosing formally certified professionals, who adhere to a strict code of conduct, will give you peace of mind and is an important step towards achieving a satisfactory outcome.

The National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI) brings together all the relevant people involved in the industry contractors, homeowners, manufacturers, suppliers, and other related professionals says director of marketing and communications, Gwen Biasi.

"As the industry's recognized authority, NARI's aim is to improve consumer remodeling experiences. One of the keys to a successful remodel lies with your choice of contractors. Each NARI member pledges to observe the highest standards of honesty, integrity and responsibility, as well as abiding by our code of ethics," says Biasi.

For the past decade, the NARI Certification Program has been providing the remodeling industry with formal standards. Certification programs recognize remodelers who have undergone detailed reviews and testing in areas of business management, ethical conduct, and technical skills.

For many professional remodelers, NARI certification offers a valuable quality assurance to consumers. For homeowners, NARI publications, such as How to Select a Remodeling Professional', are a good place to begin when considering home improvements.

Excellence in the remodeling field is recognized by the NARI Contractor of the Year awards. Full details are posted on the NARI website.
