RenodelIing,

While seldom necessary when the
building was constructed rightly in
the first place is frequently resOrted to
from variety OF reasons. Many build
ings and residences possess glazing de-
fects which depreciate their value
greatly and it is often to obviate these
disadvantages that resort is made to
remodelling.
The expense involved in doing such
work varies greatly of course but as
rule the economical benefits derived
from an increased valuation Of the
property greatly exceed the cost Of
making the changes. Not seldom has
ithappened that buildings so altered
have rented for double the amount
originally received.
Among themes common defects are
bad light; defective plumbing; poor
ventilation; damp and unsafe walls;
awkward interior arrangements; unin-
wiling entrance, etc,
In many Instances there are various
ways in which the desired result can
be obtained and the precise method to
be acted upon is not always an expen-
slve one.
Such Ideas and.suggestlonS as we are
able to give are at your service. We
shall be pleased to assist you If you
contemplate altering or remodelling.
