Remodel Smart:Know the Language
NEWHOMES MESSAGE
Here’s a glossary of some of the common
terms used by builders and remodelers to
help you understand the language of your
remodeling project—
Allowance: A specific dollar amountallocated by a contractor for specified items
in a contract for which the brand, model
number, color, size or other details are
not yet known.
Bid: A proposal to work for a certainamount of money, based on plans and
specifications for the project.
Building Permit: A document issued bya governing authority, such as a city or county
building department, granting permission to
undertake a construction project.
Call-back: An informal term for a returnvisit by the contractor to repair or replace
items the home owner has found to be
unsatisfactory or that require service under
the warranty.
Certified Graduate Remodeler (CGR):A professional designation program offered
through the National Association of Home
Builders (NAHB) Remodelers Council™.
To attain the CGR designation, a remodeler
must take a specified number of continuing
education courses and must comply with
a strict code of ethics.
Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist(CAPS): The CAPS designation wasdeveloped by the National Association
of Home Builders and AARP. CAPS
professionals have been taught the strategies
and techniques to meet the home
modification needs of home owners who
want to continue living in their homes safely,
independently and comfortably, regardless
of age or ability level. CAPS graduates pledge
to uphold a code of ethics and are required
to maintain their designation by attending
education programs and participating in
community service.
Change Order:Written authorization tothe contractor to make a change or addition
to the work described in the original contract.
The change order should reflect any changes
in cost.
Cost-plus Contract: A contract betweena contractor and home owner based on the
accrued cost of labor and materials plus a
percentage for profit and overhead—also
known as a time-and-materials contract.
Draw: A designated payment that is
n educated shopper is a smart shopper. This especially holdtrue in the world of hiring and working with contractors tomake improvements to your home. As you interview potentialcontractors, being able to understand the terminology they
use can help you avoid miscommunication and ensure a smootherremodeling experience so you and your family can enjoy your newor updated kitchen, bathroom or room addition even sooner.

My first big, real job was workingat C.E. Lee Company as a decoratingconsultant and then a branchmanager. I got a wonderful educationon all the basics of decorating—like how to hang wall coveringsand what paint to use where, and,what problems occur when youdon’t follow the rules. It was thenthat I began my love affair withBenjamin Moore®.
Over the past several years I’ve noticed so many
changes in the paint stores, new brands that were
not familiar to me (with low VOCs). What in the world
are VOCs?
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are emitted as
gases from certain solids or liquids. VOCs include a variety
of chemicals, some of which may have short- and long-
term adverse health effects. There are much higher
concentrations of VOCs found indoors than outdoors.
They are present in paints, varnishes, and wax, cleaning
products, cosmetics, and fuels. All in all it’s a pollutant
that stays in the atmosphere. When you paint a room,
latex paint takes around 3 weeks to cure, and all the while
it’s emitting the VOCs.
As I mentioned, my favorite paint was Benjamin Moore
but now I don’t even recognize any of the cans on the
shelves anymore. I went into Snyder Paints in Goshen to
talk to Dale and Greg in order to get the lowdown on the
new products. There, I discovered, the only paint on the
market that contains virtually zero VOCs is Benjamin
Moores’ new Natura. Benjamin Moore developed a wholenew colorant system (the tints they use to color the paint).
This new system has zero VOCs. This interior paint is
odorless and is the greenest paint on the market. Cost
will typically run over $50 per gallon. There is also a
contractors paint called Eco Spec that is also zero VOCs.
The standards for measuring the amounts of VOCs are
based on the can, not the colorant. So, if you are using
another company’s paint and it states that it’s low VOCs
but you have it tinted, you’ve just added more VOCs.
Other major paint distributors are jumping on the band
wagon to try to keep up with Benjamin Moore.
They also have several other products that are low
VOCs: Aura and Ben (a lower priced value paint).
When painting furniture and woodwork I still, being
of green soul and mind, love oil based paint. Being in the

When you are gathering equipment,be sure you have the correct brushesfor the paint you’ve selected—naturalbristles for oil paint; synthetic brushesfor latex paint. Angled brushes areperfect for cutting in around trim.
If you are going to use rollers, matchthe nap of the roller to the texture ofthe walls. The more textured the walls,the thicker the nap of the roller.
I love to use canvas drop cloths.They are almost a one time purchasebecause you can use them over andover. Paint can easily smear with aplastic cloth. Old sheets just aren’tabsorbent enough, and you may findpaint on the floor when you arefinished.
Professional painters recommendpriming walls first even if they havebeen painted before, especially if youare covering a dark or bright color. Youwill get better coverage if you tint theprimer first with some of the topcoat.
If you need a break during painting,simply wrap your brush or roller inplastic wrap or seal in a plastic bag.If your one weekend project has turnedinto two, don’t worry about cleaningup twice if you are using latex paint—wrap your brushes or rollers again andput them in the freezer. You’ll need tothaw them for an hour before they areready to use again.
An easy way to keep track of the paintused from room to room, is to simplywrite the information on a piece ofmasking tape and put it on the backof the light switch cover.
If you have more paint than you willneed for possible touch-up, considerdonating the extras to Habitat ReStore.
Contact your local Solid WasteManagement District if you have paintor solvents that need to be disposedof. These items are hazardous wasteand should never be put down thedrain or put in the trash.
GREEN DESIGNER TIPS & INSPIRATION
a
business of selling furnishings, I don’t like to compromise
quality. I’m sorry, but you just can’t beat the wearability of oil.
When I asked Dale about oil vs. latex, he said even the oil
based paints have had to change the last few years to meet
the new standards. The quality is not as high as it once was.
The standards will have to change again by October, but,
being in the “rust belt” of America we will be one of the last
states to go without the oil paints. Both the east and west
coastal states have banned it, and, now Ohio—so it’s getting
down to crunch time.
I also wanted to get the opinion of a paint contractor
(Jeffery Cooper), to see what his take on the low VOCs
products were. For interior trim he likes to use the new water
based Alkyd. He said it goes on like Benjamin Moores’ Satin
Impervo, and spreads out nice and smooth. Jeff isn’t crazy
about the newer interior wall paints because they don’t go on
as smooth, this is the result of their fast drying time. “It’s a
lot more work for the homeowner and professionals to make
it look as nice. These paint products are new, and they haven’t
perfected them yet,” he said.
Do you have a basement shelf full of old latex paint
(harmful chemicals), and you don’t know what to do with
it all? Well, let me tell you—this is something that I was the
most excited about! You can take your latex paint (that has
not been frozen) to Snyder Paints in Goshen. A small, family-
owned paint company called RepcoLite is taking the old paint,
testing it, bringing it up to quality standards, and then tinting
it in Pottery Barn colors. They give you $1/gallon credit
