Modernize is where homeowners get matched to contractors. We want you to love your home, and we think you should be the expert on it. That’s how Homeowner Resources was born.
This home blog covers everything from what kind of HVAC system would be best in your region to what front door colors are most popular this year.
Homeowner Resources gets tens of thousands of visits a month and is a consistent reader favorite among home improvement websites. We love being the go-to resource for your home improvement needs.

We have thoughtfully organized our content so that every home improvement blog topic is easy to find, no matter what stage of designing and renovating you’re in.
From the Homeowner Resources homepage, select the element of your home you want to research. Looking into new tile options for your shower? Click on “Bathroom.” Wondering if a metal roof is really worth the price? Click on “Roofing.”
From there, we’ve organized your project into phases:

Contractor Selection – Click here if you are moving ahead with your project, but you are not sure what questions to ask a contractor, how to negotiate pricing, or what to look for in a contract.
Cost and Budgeting – If you want to know what your project should cost, how to create a budget for it, and what incentives, tax breaks, or financing options are available to you, all your answers will be here.
Installation – New cabinets are going in or a roof is going on or your windows are being replaced – whatever it is, here’s what to expect from your installation.
Maintenance and Care – Once your project is complete, you will want to be the expert in caring for the final product. From how to clean your new floors to how to unclog your gutters, we have everything you need for enjoying your home and keeping it in tip-top shape here.

Our team of writers are passionate about homeownership, just like you. They live all across the U.S. in every kind of home imaginable, from historic builds to modern apartments to suburban retreats. They write on topics they are knowledgeable on and conduct thorough research to bring you the most accurate and up-to-date information on all aspects of your home improvement – from costs to best industry practices – so you get the most out of your project.
Articles are then edited and reviewed by relevant experts. Meaning, our weather-obsessed reviewer who knows how to check your home for damage after hurricanes is entirely separate from our interior design expert who stays on top of tile trends and color palettes.
When you read an article on Homeowner Resources, you can trust it is factual, accurate, and timely.
