Left Over Building Materials

Save Extra Remodeling Materials

Save your left over building materials left overs and cut off for future repairs.

One of the first things I ask a client when doing repairs is do they have any left overs [extra tile, roof shingles, trim or wall paper] from when the original work was done.

This is important and often comes into play when patching in roof shingles, tile, paint, carpet, trim and wallpaper. Saving your leftovers may mean being able to perform an invisible repair or patch verses a slightly different color, non-matching patch or worse yet – removing it all because you were unable blend in your repair.
