Restoring an old house or business can be expensive and there are some jobs – involving infrastructure – where it pays to have a professional complete the work. But there are many smaller projects the property owner can undertake. Not only does DERP want to help you develop an appreciation of the fine craftsmanship of these old structures, but the organization also wants to save you money. The DIY Workshop will help you do just that.
The “DIY Projects for Your Historic Home and Historic Tax Credits for Your Home and Business” afternoon begins with a luncheon at 12:30 – meatball and/or sausage heroes as well as other homemade nourishment – at the church. After lunch, the following workshops will be held:
- How to Replace Ropes in Weighted Double-Hung Windows
- How to Reglaze Single-Pane Wood Windows
- How to Create Cement Countertops
- How to Radon-Test Your Historic Property
- How to Age in Place
- How to Improve the Exterior
- How to Qualify for Historic Tax Credits
