Barnwood is an incredibly popular material to work with and for good reason. As a recycled material, it is something you can feel good about putting to use while upgrading the look and appeal of your home. Here are a few of John’s Lumber reclaimed Barnwood projects you can do all on your own.
#1 – Decorative Shelving
Barnwood shelving is simple to construct and can be completed with standard shelving hardware. What better place for personal mementos?
#2 – Wall Paneling
Reclaimed Barnwood is the perfect material for paneling, which can be repurposed again at a later time if needed. This relatively simple project quickly infuses rustic charm in any room of your house and will inspire a farm like atmosphere.
#3 – Pallet Garden Walkway
Individual pieces of Barnwood can be arranged in a walkway fashion to help guests navigate your land. Unlike stones which commonly sink into the surrounding landscape, a pallet garden walkway is inexpensive and easy to maintain.
#4 – Rustic Bookcase
The natural allure of a rustic bookcase is hard to escape. Since you are crafting it yourself you get to choose how tall and wide it is, and add finishing touches as you please. This is a useful trick for adding book storage in spaces which do not accommodate standard bookcases.
The possibilities when working with Barnwood are limitless. Stop by either of John’s Lumber local store locations in Clinton Township and Shelby Township to pick-up some reclaimed Barnwood for your next project.
New windows can have a huge impact on your living space. If your home hasn’t been updated in a while, now is the time to think about your next project. Why should you consider installing new windows sooner rather than later?
Older windows usually have fewer features. Today’s models come with many helpful extras that improve the look and operation of your windows. Some features even make them easier to maintain. For example, some models have between-the-glass blinds that reduce dust in your home.
Natural light is lovely indoors. However, you don’t want ultraviolet rays to cause fading on interior surfaces, furniture, and home décor. New windows are available with double or triple panes with argon for UV protection.
Strong windows mean improved home security for your family. Some models come with safety features like tempered glass that won’t splinter if broken. A new installation also provides you the opportunity to remove any broken or aging locks so that your windows are less likely to be used as a point of entry.
Noise pollution can affect your health and comfort. High-quality windows can be installed that shield your interior rooms from outdoor sounds. Some are specifically designed to maximize noise reduction.
New windows can lower your monthly energy bills. They can provide better insulation so that your heating and cooling systems do not have to work as hard. They can also block sunlight during the warmer seasons to keep indoor temperatures down.
Installing new windows is a great investment for your home. They can make your rooms more inviting and help lower household expenses and increase your property value. Stop by or contact John’s Lumber in Shelby Township or Clinton Township today to learn more about new window features, installation, pricing and financing.
John’s Lumber will be closed on the 4th of July. Normal business hours resume on July 5th.
Deck installations are a popular choice when it comes to home improvement. They can improve your property’s curb appeal and make your family more comfortable. This is especially true during the summer months when more people prefer to spend time outdoors. How can a new deck change your summer this year?
You’ll always have an open-air gathering place ready to go. Whether it’s an impromptu visit with a few friends or a dinner for the whole family, you can enjoy it under the sun or stars on your deck.
A new deck provides you more reasons to host events at home. Plan barbecues, pool parties, picnics, and more. Guests will love hanging out and getting some fresh air. You can utilize more entertaining space through clever layouts that feature different deck shapes or multiple levels.
A deck enhances the look of your yard. It can add a beautiful quality that you can work into your landscaping. You can even pull it all together with outdoor décor, hanging baskets, or railing planters.
You can do more with the space you have when you install a deck. Extend your garden by adding strawberries, tomatoes, or more in growing bags that hang from railings, posts, or walls. You can create an outdoor kitchen area or install seating with built-in benches. Outdoor storage boxes can also be set up on your deck.
A new deck will present new opportunities this summer and every summer after! Stop by or contact John’s Lumber in Clinton Township or Shelby Township to learn more about materials, installation, and financing options.
A deck can be a wonderful addition to your home. It will provide your family more space to enjoy and can increase your property’s resale value. What should you know before you get started on a new deck?
Building a deck can be very rewarding. Let John’s Lumber help you create the perfect outdoor space that matches your home and meets all building codes. Give us a call today or stop by our Clinton Twp. or Shelby Twp. location for your custom deck estimate.
