It should be no surprise that sensitivity to the environment is a growing concern for most homeowners, Forbes Magazine reports. In fact, sustainability is driving the types of projects that homeowners begin. And the materials and finishes they use.
There’s also a new interest in low-chemical-compound products. Research shows people care if their paint or carpets pollute the air. Furthermore, homeowners like to re-use old building materials.
