Chelsea Lipford Wolf spray painting kitchen cabinets
Painting cabinets requires minimal investment, but the result can completely change the look of your kitchen.

When it comes to being a homeowner, the list of possible home improvement projects is endless, and you are constantly adding to your list of things to do.

Many of the people who call into Today’s Homeowner Radio Show might have the same ideas and run into the same problems as you.

They have plenty of tasks planned to do around the house, but aren’t exactly sure how to go about getting them done.

Or maybe, they just need some reassurance or professional advice before beginning the next project.

For example, there might be scratches all over your hardwood floors and you’re not sure how to fix them. Or, you can’t decide whether you should raise that dropped living room.

Maybe you want to paint your cabinets but don’t know if it’s possible to keep that wood grain look when doing so. Or you may be wondering how to protect your exterior hose faucets from cold weather.

You could even be worried about your floors being too slippery and just need to find a quick solution.

Whatever it is, we’re here to help you with these projects, and many more! Listen to this week’s radio show for advice.
