National home improvement resource website Bizzibid.com staff is predicting a very busy upcoming spring (2012) for
home improvement estimates. Recent website data and user statistics has shown that home improvement estimate request has been up significantly this winter and based on these statistics, the website staff believes that this coming Spring of 2012 should be a very busy season for the remodeling and home improvement industry.
The home improvement industry has been in decline substantially since the economy fell from the real estate bubble bursting. Many homeowners put off projects that they would otherwise have had done including home additions, kitchen remodels, siding replacement and roof repairs. Some homeowners took these projects on themselves but many simply opted to wait for the economy to rebound before getting the work done. Some categories of home improvement are luxuries (ie. kitchen remodeling) and these types of projects usually get pushed until later more frequently. Some projects, however, are necessary for a home's stability and well being. Projects like roof repairs, siding repair, broken window replacement are examples. Bizzibid.com staff reports that when the economy fell, the web traffic shifted greatly to include more visits to the "how to" and DIY sections of the website. The website staff reports that this is now changing and that there is a substantial uptick in actual home improvement estimates being placed through the website.
This means that more homeowners are leaning back in the direction of having the projects done for them again. This time of year, Winter, is typically very slow in this industry, but the data from the site shows that its not just the necessary home projects that people are requesting. More people are looking for the contractors that service the luxury home improvement projects like bathroom renovation and home additions. All of this data leads the company to believe that homeowner confidence in the state of the economy is rising and that this Spring should be a very busy one for contractors.
