Here are ten great opportunities to help preserve the architectural integrity
and value of your home when doing a home improvement project:
- Preserve original wood or stucco siding of your house
- Maintain a slate or tile roof
- Never buy replacement windows
- Incorporate important components of vintage kitchens
and baths
- Avoid refinishing floors and woodwork
- Keep historic details
- Work with historic landscaping, especially native species such as Mountain Laurel and Rosebay Rhodoendrum
- Retain interior plaster walls
- Keep historic details on ancillary buildings
- Repair, not replace, copper gutters and leaders
For more information on these items, consult the Preservation Bulletins posted
on our Information for Restoration Projects page.
