Around C&C Unlimited, we love a good house project! We’ve been working with homeowners in the Albany, NY area for over 20 years, on everything from mold removal to asbestos abatement to selective demolition. And we have all the respect in the world for passionate homeowners who don’t mind rolling up their sleeves and tackling a DIY project.
But for the longest time, if you were taking on a home project you had to go to the bookstore or library to do your research and get inspiration. Lucky for us, thanks to the internet, there’s no shortage of great blogs chock full of helpful info for the home DIY’er.
Check out our top 5 home improvement blogs to help you with your next project!
THIS OLD HOUSE
An oldie but a goodie, you can’t beat the sheer volume and scope of projects This Old House covers. This Old House started as a TV program on PBS 40 years ago and still holds its own in the world of home improvement and design. You can’t beat its library of free tutorials!
REMODELAHOLIC
The genius of Remodelaholic is that it’s reader sourced! Readers submit their remodel projects with detailed instructions, so every DIY idea on this blog has genuinely been executed by a regular homeowner like yourself! We especially love the Before & After galleries, plus the way content is easily divided by room so you can quickly and easily find what you’re looking for.

This blog is like an encyclopedia of home improvement projects! Not only does Essential Home & Garden offer an array of DIY projects, it also has plenty of content on home and garden maintenance.
