Are you in the process of starting a remodeling or renovation project in your home? Maybe you are sick of the plain white walls in your living room or that inefficient kitchen with very little storage space. Before starting any project large or small, we should consider the impact on the environment and our health.
Paint, carpet and other materials and finishes are the leading cause of poor indoor air quality. According to the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency), this is considered to be one of the top five hazards to human health. These materials release toxins called VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) into the air, which can remain for years after the application or installation.
If you’re gearing up to do a total home renovation project or just spending one afternoon painting your bathroom, there are safer and healthier alternatives then what you can find at your typical home improvement store.
The EcoHome Improvement store in Berkeley, CA is your one stop shopping for eco home improvement projects, both large and small. From VOC-free paint, to appliances, you can find what you need to redecorate home in an environmentally friendly manner.
Going to the EcoHome Improvement store is more like stepping in to a boutique than your typical home or hardware store. Here, you will find a wide variety of VOC-free paint, stains and sealers, tile, countertops, flooring, cabinetry, decor, and kitchen appliances. Materials used includes recycled glass, ceramic, metal, wood, bamboo, and more.
The staff at the EcoHome Improvement Store are very knowledgeable on the subject of eco home improvement and are always eager to assist. If you need a little inspiration and information for your future home improvement project, or just need ideas for colors to paint your bedroom, the atmosphere here is very warm and inviting.
