Get Your Home Improvement Projects Done @HarveyBP #BPBN

Have you been planning to install new windows or doors? Well, not all are created equal. I attended a great event at Harvey Building Products at their Burlington, MA showroom (what? you have not been there?)  It is a must see at 1 Wheeler Road- lots of good ideas for home improvement projects especially for doors and windows. But I did not realize they have a lot more products.  Options for decking, siding and roofing were just some of the products we saw on our tour.  Also on hand was Peter Hotton from The Boston Globe’s handyman on call to tell us some wonderful and funny home improvement stories.

All Harvey windows, doors and patio rooms (my dream project is a nice three season room!) are made locally in NH and they stand by their products. They are the only American manufacturer that designs and makes all its own window products.  Check out their showroom and tell your contractor to as well! Homeowners can visit the showroom for ideas, suggestions and lots of advice, but Harvey sells exclusively to building industry professionals. Or check out their web site at Harveybp.com

This is my dream front door!
