Builders Assoc. says homeowners still eager to remodel, expects trend to continue

The frequency of home remodeling projects through April, May and June continued to out pace last year's rate, according to the National Association of Home Builders' (NAHB). While the trade association noted that the second quarter figures indicate a slight dip from the first three months of the year, it said remodeling is still a growth area that is likely to positively affect key categories including floor covering.
