Are you Thinking of Moving Here?

Wherever you live in the USA you have heard about Colorado Springs.  What you should know is that it is entirely different from Denver.  It is a paradise unto itself!  Here in Colorado Springs we enjoy an average of over 300 days a year of sunshine.  And the recreation…are you kidding?  There are activities within driving distance the year around.

Before you move here you should know that –

1.  Most homes have basements, and many don’t have air conditioning

2.  It’s easy to navigate…just follow a mountain!

3.  We are a high desert climate.  Low moisture + low humidity = fewer bugs

4.  Property taxes and utilities are lower than most places in the US

Here is something that you will want to know.  When you move into your new home remember the name Brian Tucker.  He is the president of Tucco Home Improvement.  For any remodeling, painting, or handy work that you need done in Colorado Springs he is the guy to know.  When you are ready, give him a call for a free estimate at (719) 217 - 7931.

A Look at the 2018 Real Estate Market.

Things are looking great in the Colorado Springs area for real estate sales in the New Year!  The trends in the market place continue to rise by a projected 10% in the year to come.  For instance, in November new listings were up nearly 15%.  The median sales price of a home in Colorado Springs is now over $280,000.

When you are dealing with numbers like this it demands that you as a landlord or home owner give careful consideration as to what you are putting on the market.  It is very important to make your rental or sale property competitive in a growing marketplace.  This is an opportunity to make more money!

To that end, we hope that you will think of us at Tucco Home Improvement.  I am Brian Tucker.  For many years I have added thousands of dollars of value to rental properties and homes for sale.  Spend a little now and make a lot later!  Call me for a free estimate as soon as you can in 2018.  My phone number is (719) 217-7931.

Planning for a New Castle in 2018.

Maybe your new year’s plans include building that dream home.  What a great way to usher in 2018!  Remodeling is one thing, of course, but starting from the ground-up is a marvelous experience.  When you do, you should get exactly what you want, so take some time and make the right decisions.

It starts with the ideal general contractor.  This is someone who oversees the entire process and follows your directions while at the same time offering invaluable input.  Naturally, you will need a plumber to install everything from toilets to hot tubs.  You might have a favorite one or the contractor will suggest someone.

When you are making plans please consider Brian Tucker.  Brian is the owner of Tucco Home Improvements.  Brian has spent the last two and a half decades perfecting his craft.  That craft is being one of the top home improvement and building specialists in the Colorado Springs area.  So, make the call (719) 217-7931.

Make Sure Your Home is Ready for the Market.

You don’t really think that a house with noticeable flaws is easier to sell than one that is pristine, do you?  Of course not!  The difference between the two could be up to tens of thousands of dollars out of your pocket.  Why would you risk getting lower offers than you expected because you did not hire a professional to “spiff up” your castle?

All throughout Colorado and especially in Colorado Springs the Real Estate market is booming.  We have dusted ourselves off from the Recession and now our property is worth far more than it was a little less than a decade ago.  That is true unless it is a distressed property.  Are you 100% proud of the look and feel of your home as it is about to go on the market?

If not, Brian Tucker may be the answer.  Brian is the owner of Tucco Home Improvement.  The keyword there is IMPROVEMENT.  Get the maximum amount for your property.  Call Brian for a free estimate of what it takes to make it ready for sale in the Colorado Springs area.  See samples of his work at www.tuccohomeimprovements.com then give him a call at (719) 217-7931.

Building a Castle from the Ground Up.

It has to start somewhere.  You have dreamed the dream and now it is time to bring that vision to fruition.  You are having your first home built from scratch!  Isn’t it amazing?  You have given it great consideration and, maybe you have looked at existing houses in the Colorado Springs area and none of them have “done it for you”.

As the process moves forward there are many factors to consider.  The frame must be strong and sturdy.  The plumbing must be installed to last years and years.  Each room is precious and must be treated as such with just the right touch and painting.  Of course, unless your Bill Gates budget will be a consideration.

The place to start is with someone who has had decades of experience building homes from scratch.  In this area, the best place to start is Tucco Home Improvement.  Owner Brian Tucker is Colorado Springs’ home building contracting professional.  It all begins with a phone call and a free estimate at (719) 217-7931.

How to Hang Drywall.

Installing drywall may be an important to do task as your Colorado Springs castle transitions from fall to winter.  This is a particularly good time for this project for your home whether you are renting it to the people about to visit our area for skiing season or doing it for the comfort and beauty of your own home.

Here are some of the fundamentals for hanging drywall –

1.  Measurements must be very carefully made

2.  Plan all of the fixtures, doors, windows, etc.

3.  Hang plastic sheeting at each door leading to other rooms to trap dust.

4.  Always wear a dust mask to protect your eyes and lungs.

Maybe these are steps in which you shine…or maybe this seemingly simple project will turn into a disaster!  The latter is unacceptable.  That is why you contact Colorado Spring’s drywall professional.  He is Brian Tucker.  Brian will come to your home or cabin and give you a free estimate for the job.  Give him a call and have the job done right at (719) 217-7931.

Getting Ready for Skiing Season.

If you rent cabins for skiers who flock to the Rocky Mountain State every fall and winter it is time to prepare for the tourists.  What is the condition of your cabins?  Do they need a facelift this time of year?  Putting on the best face of your greatest commodity is vitally important to your financial survival.

Walk around your property.  Look at the condition of the outside.  Then go into each cabin and take a hard look at the interior.  How are the bathrooms, the kitchen, the general living area?  If you don’t provide all of the creature comforts to your guests this upcoming season you can be sure that someone else will!

To get tucked in and ready for the tourists you should rely on Tucco.  That’s right Tucco Home Improvements located in Colorado Springs.  Justin Tucker has devoted the last three decades of his life to remodeling.  As the Rocky’s premier cabin refurbisher he will make your resort attractive to tourists.  Call him before the snow really flies at (719) 217-7931.

Installing Plantation Shutters.

Now that summer is nearly over you will be spending much more time in your home.  What better time to consider Plantation Shutters in your “plantation”?  What are plantation shutters?  They are a typical choice for kitchens and dining areas.  Before you decide on plantation vs. traditional shutters here is some more information.

A traditional shutter is the old style, 1 1/4 inch louvered shutter in a 3/4 thick frame. It was widely installed where windows were small.  Plantation shutters first got their name from the old Southern plantations.  The louvers used in the South were “wider” than traditional shutters and the shutters were put on the outside of the house.

The choice is yours, of course, but one choice you should definitely make is the right person to measure and install them.  That person is Colorado Springs interior design expert Brian Tucker.  Once you make the decision to remodel the inside of your home then the best decision you could possibly make is to call Brian at (719) 217-7931.

Large Contracting with Handyman Expertise.

If you have jobs around your home that need doing you have two choices…do them all yourself or hire someone adept at all types of repairs.  If you could call a large contracting firm in the Colorado Springs area and have them do all of the projects for one low price without rebuilding your home you might do that.

However, what if you could find someone who was a part of a large contracting firm and then branched out on his own to do any and all jobs?  We are talking about jobs such as painting, all types of carpentry, roofing, bathroom remodeling, and just about any handyman service that you could ever need.

That man is Brian Tucker.  Brian is always your choice for Colorado Springs area repairs, renovations, and other handyman jobs.  He is a guy whose name you keep handy ALL of the time, because chances are you will avail yourself of his talents over and over again.  Call Brian for a free estimate at (719) 217-7931.

Repairing your Gazebo.

Ahhh summertime!  You and your family are spending more time outdoors and enjoying your backyard this time of year.  What kind of shape is your gazebo in?  Are you just going to limp by for another summer or are you going to have something done about it?  Having a beautiful gazebo adds pleasure and value to your home.

Here are some repair tips –

1.  Make sure that the cover is completely dry before having it repaired

2.  Watch for a build-up of mildew that will damage it over time

3.  Select the right patch to repair any tears

4.  Use the proper canopy repair tape

If you feel equal to the task maybe it is a DIY job, but probably not.  What if you could get a professional estimate for free before you made that decision?  From anywhere within a 40-mile radius of Colorado Springs the answer is Justin Tucker.  Justin is a pro when it comes to gazebo replacement and repair.  Call him for that estimate at (719) 217-7931.

Are You Renting?

If you are preparing a property for rental you certainly want to get every dollar out of it that it’s worth.  Why settle for $1000 a month when you can get $1250?  That is especially true when you are signing long-term leases.  Are you really thinking of doing the renovations yourself?  That could be a lot of work.

There is painting, contracting, time, materials, etc.  You may eventually be responsible for upkeep, but you don’t necessarily want to be the person who does the prep work.  Finding a person who specializes in renovating rental properties is like finding a great auto mechanic.  He’s a keeper!
