Where do you do your laundry? Many older homes in the Columbus, Ohio area have the washer and dryer tucked away in the basement, which isn’t very functional for today’s busy families! The Remodel-Design-Build Team at The Cleary Company collaborates with our clients, to develop a floorplan and create a home that compliments their lifestyles.
Moving the laundry from the basement to the first or, better yet, the second floor makes it easier for you to complete laundry tasks!
We’re diving into the information from the 2022 Remodeling Impact Report from The National Association of Realtors® (NAR) Research Group and the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI). According to this study, Americans spent $420 billion in 2020 remodeling their homes. Remodeling a laundry room is a game changer for improving livability and functionality in the home!
What the Report tells us about Laundry Room Remodels
NAR utilizes a Joy score for each project based on happiness. The Joy score for a laundry room remodel is a 9.5/10! We know that our clients are certainly filled with joy after seeing this project completed! 68% of consumers would have undertaken this project, regardless of the pandemic.
The most important results?
60% of those polled report better functionality and livability now that they have created or upgraded their laundry room.
79% of people feel a major sense of accomplishment when they think of the project.
And us, we feel 100% accomplished when we complete a project!
We love designing and creating laundry rooms for our clients. The possibilities for a laundry room are endless. The time saved not lugging laundry up and down two flights of stairs creates efficiency, and better organization of laundry as it’s a dedicated functioning room, not an afterthought location in the basement.
Take a look at some of the projects we’ve completed.

Want to know what an attic remodel might it cost? We’re diving into information from the 2022 Remodeling Impact Report from The National Association of Realtors® (NAR) Research Group and the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI). According to this study, Americans spent $420 billion in 2020 remodeling their homes. And remodeling attics is part of where money has been spent!
Read on for what the Report tells us about Attic Remodels
NAR utilizes a Joy score for each project based on happiness. The Joy score for an Attic Remodel is a 10/10! That score tells us that an attic remodel is 100% joy-driven! 83% of consumers would have undertaken the project, regardless of the pandemic.
Remodeling an attic by creating a livable space (living area) has a cost recovery value of 75%. “REALTORS® provided an estimate of the likely dollar value each project would add to the house at resale. In comparing that dollar value to the estimated cost of each project provided by NARI members, a Recovered Project Cost percentage was calculated.”
It’s important to realize that NARI Remodelers placed the cost estimate of an attic remodel at $100,000 (nationwide) and the estimated cost recovery is $75,000. This amount is based on creating a living area, so costs will vary based on your needs for the attic.
More often than not, our Team has designed & built bathrooms in unfinished attic spaces however, we can also create new bedrooms, offices, gyms and more! Adding an extra room or finishing unused spaces will change the way your home functions and will make it a home you’ll want to stay in for a long time.

A hot topic with our Team at The Cleary Company is energy use at the office. We frequently ask ourselves ~
What can we do to be more energy efficient?
How can we save energy and lower our utility costs?
What changes can we make to create a cleaner Earth? (both in the office & in our client’s homes!)
There are many things you can do at home to save energy and harness energy from the sun. While some of these can be more costly than others, just thinking about them, could lead you to making small changes now. Here’s what we’re doing now and upgrades we’re planning for the future!
Changes You Can Make to Use Less Electricity in Your Home
Motion Sensor Lights – using right now – visit our office to see how they work!
It’s a simple switch! When the sensor detects motion the light comes on and if no movement is detected after a predetermined time the light shuts off. Motion sensor lights are compatible for home & commercial spaces.
They can be installed on interior & exterior surfaces — walls, doorways, ceilings and entrances.
Use them for safety or convenience. Lights turn on as you enter a room. Basements, attics and closets are popular uses at home.
User friendly and has many benefits when incorporating Universal Design into your remodeling project.
Our Team feels safer when working late at the office with the majority of our lights having motion sensors.
Solar panels – coming soon!
Drive through a neighborhood almost anywhere in central Ohio and look up at the roofs. We guarantee on some house or building, you’ll see solar panels installed. In Ohio, with the number of gray days we have you’d think having solar panels wouldn’t be a great idea. Guess what? They are! Prices for the installation of solar panels have dropped over the last 10 years and now might be the time to install them on your home.
You will still have a utility bill, but you may have credits for months that the panels generate more power than you use.
Solar energy is cheaper, cleaner than standard power-grid based electricity and is “green”. Harnessing the power of the sun is beneficial to the health of the Earth.
Energy-efficient appliances – using right now – visit our office to see how they work!
Investing in energy-efficient appliances has a positive impact on our environment and your bank account. Advancements in energy-efficient appliances have made it possible to reduce the amount of energy needed to get the same work done. Benefits include:
Using less water while in use.
Smaller energy load needed.
Wash your clothes using cold water.
Refrigerators create less heat and better insulation helps food stay colder and fresher.
Heating elements in dishwashers to heat the water uses less hot water. AND contrary to what you might think, running your dishwasher uses less water than hand washing.
LED lightbulbs – using right now – visit our office to see how they work!
According to the US Department of Energy, 10 percent of your home’s electric bill is from using lights.
Changing to LED lightbulbs, while more expensive at the beginning, usually offsets the cost of your bill over time. Not only that, but you’ll also go through lightbulbs less frequently, meaning fewer lightbulbs in the landfill.
Add Smart devices to your existing lighting – you’ll save even more in cost and energy. Read more about Smart Technology on our blog!
Buying a New Car? Consider Going Electric!
Electric Vehicle Charging Stations – just installed!
With more electric car models now available, we’re seeing more and more of them on the road. This got us thinking—will we have clients and guests visit our office driving electric cars? Will some of our Team members start driving electric cars? Will our next company van be electric? And as we pondered these questions, we concluded that having an electric car charging station at the office is a great business investment.
The value we see in EV charging stations is:
Help the environment
Provide a needed service to local EV charging options
Make it easy for our Team to drive electric cars
Convenience to our clients who drive an EV
Attract new customers
Prepare for the future during your next remodel!
Did you know there’s an online directory for finding EV charging stations? PlugShare!
Ready to discuss your remodel?
Our Team is ready to discuss and collaborate with you to decide what energy-saving options you can incorporate into your home remodeling project. We’re here to help!
And we are using, or have plans to use all these here at our office. We are hoping to install an electric car charger that can be used by our clients or any of our Team. We have discussed getting solar panels and are “electrified” about the possibility! We are already using energy-saving appliances, as well as LED lightbulbs and motion sensor lights.
Our Team can show you how to use efficiently power your home. Contact our Client Relations Coordinator today to schedule a conversation.
Have you been in your home for many years? Or maybe you just purchased a home that needs a bit of tender loving care. One of the projects we get the most calls for is kitchens! Whether it’s a complete gut and remodel that involves removing walls, relocating plumbing, and significantly changing the existing footprint, or a facelift, refresh or upgrade—removing everything and replacing it, a kitchen remodel can increase your health and well-being.
Our Remodel-Design-Build Team at The Cleary Company will collaborate with you to create a project scope that fits your needs and goals for your new kitchen. Let us help your space go from drab to dreamy!
We’ve been sharing information from the 2022 Remodeling Impact Report from The National Association of Realtors® (NAR) Research Group and the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI). According to this study, Americans spent $420 billion in 2020 on remodeling their homes. That’s a lot of remodeling!
Let’s take a look at what the report tells us about a Kitchen Upgrade Remodel.
What does the report tell us about completing a Kitchen Upgrade Remodel? NAR utilizes a Joy score for each project based on happiness. The Joy score for a Kitchen Upgrade is a 9.8 out of 10. That score tells us that a kitchen upgrade is worth it and produces a great deal of joy! 83% of consumers would have undertaken the project, regardless of the pandemic.
Remodeling a kitchen by completing a remove and replace upgrade has a cost recovery value of 67%. “REALTORS® provided an estimate of the likely dollar value each project would add to the house at resale. In comparing that dollar value to the estimated cost of each project provided by NARI members, a Recovered Project Cost percentage was calculated.”
It’s important to realize that NARI Remodelers placed the cost estimate of a kitchen upgrade remodel at $45,000 (nationwide) and the estimated cost recovery is $30,000.

We remodeled your bathroom—now what? You’ve perused all the magazines, pinned ideas on your Pinterest board, and wandered through Target and IKEA to find accessory ideas. Do you know what you need for your beautifully reimagined bathroom?
Our Design Team has a few ideas for you. Though by no means an exhaustive list, we are here to get you started on the must-haves for your bathroom!
Details
Fluffy towels are a must. Choose ones that either complement or contrast with the bathroom. If your color palette is neutral, a bold-colored towel might be just the pop you need. Check out these Simply Vera Turkish cotton towels from Kohls!
Matching coordinated bottles to hold soap, shampoo, and conditioner. Amazon has some great stylish options. Just transfer your products!
Baskets and decorative boxes can play a part in the aesthetic of the bathroom as well as keep your new space organized. A little can go a long way, so don’t overcrowd the room with too many items. Check out Wayfair.com!
A pretty tray used on the counter corrals items you want in easy reach. Like these from the Container Store!
Don’t forget the floor—a small washable rug in front of the sink provides color and keeps the feet warmer too. Rugs USA has great tips on choosing the right rug for your space.
Add plants! Choose plants that work well with natural lighting. Succulents and low-maintenance plants are best. Check out Greendigs online or locally on Grandview Ave! And don’t worry if you don’t have a green thumb, opt for faux plants. There are some realistic options out there.
Add some seating for those pedicures or hair styling moments—a stool, ottoman, or chair works well. Visit Pier 1 online for fashionable options!
Don’t forget some artwork! Our Team recommends HomeGoods‘ wide selection.
Keep Your Bathroom Looking New – Cleaning Tips
It is beautiful now, right? It’s dreamy, organized, and should have its picture taken for Instagram. But life does interfere every day in a bathroom, so here are a few tips to keep it looking sparkly and new!
Put items back where they belong before you leave the bathroom. If you have littles (or kids of any age), labeling bins and baskets might be useful.
If you have glass shower walls, keep a squeegee in the shower and use it after each shower.
Rinse and wipe the sink morning and night. Keep a reusable or microfiber towel that can just be rinsed out to dry to speed up the process. Multi-purpose wipes work as well.
Keep needed cleaning supplies in the bathroom so quick cleanups don’t require leaving the bathroom to get the supplies.
Clean the toilet several times a week to keep it from getting dirty. A little baking soda and a toilet brush are all you need for quick clean-ups.

Designing and building with regards to Living in Place and using Universal Design principles means that the home is suitable for the needs of all the individuals aging independently as possible. As you look around your home, what jumps out at you? Are your living spaces functional for aging gracefully and safely for the rest of your life? Are there modifications and changes you need to make while keeping a beautiful aesthetic that functions for your family?
The Cleary Company’s Remodel Design Build Team in the Columbus area has the experience and expertise to create a functional plan for your home to Live in Place. We have helped many families create spaces that are accessible and beautiful.
Universal Design isn’t something most homeowners think about when building or remodeling a home, but it is something we discuss frequently with our clients. Living In Place or Universal Design, both used interchangeably, is simply defined as a home designed and built to be used and accessed easily by all people no matter their age, size, or abilities. This universal approach to design and construction is all about planning and details. What products, features, and space planning considerations need to be in place for the space to function for all?
Living in Place design elements for the bathroom
Your bathroom is your private sanctuary but it’s also the most heavily used space in your home. Spending time discussing all of the details needed for a safe and functional space is time and money well-spent! Our Design Team reviews and recommends the following to all our bathroom remodeling clients.
Zero-entry or low threshold shower wide enough to accommodate two adults (should a caregiver be necessary)
Handheld showerhead and moving the shower controls closer to the entry part of the shower
A shower seat that is movable (there are some gorgeous teak options available!) or one that is permanent and folds down
Faucets and plumbing fixtures with lever handles, anti-scald controls and pressure balances are preferred for ease of use as well as safety
Comfort height toilet preferably (with a bidet seat!) and if possible reposition the toilet to allow for wheelchair transfer
Grab bars in the shower and beside the toilet
Bathroom vanity style with a counter that is accessible for a wheelchair, a seat, or small children
Mirror placement that allows everyone to use it
Flooring throughout with slip-resistant qualities
Accessible storage – drawers and shelves at varying heights
Pocket or barn door entry
Lever-style door handles
Additional changes to consider for all of the main living spaces
While incorporating all of these updates can be extensive, they are the recommendations we routinely discuss with all of our clients.
Widening entryways and hallways to allow for walkers, wheelchairs or scooters
Opening up the floorplan for traffic flow and visibility
Using countertops of varying heights in the kitchen & as well as bathrooms
Moving switches and outlets for easier reach
Replacing carpet with hardwood, vinyl or tile flooring that is easier to navigate
Adding a bedroom/bathroom to the main floor if one doesn’t exist (or planning for a future need)
Limit or eliminate the steps needed to enter the home when possible
Your entire home can be improved to allow for you or a family member to Live in Place regardless of age or ability. Beginning with your bathroom is a great place to start! Planning now for long-term function means you don’t have to scramble to do it when you really need it should an unexpected medical issue arise.
If you’re ready to discuss any Living in Place updates in your home please give us a call at 614-459-4000 or visit the contact page on our website to schedule a phone call with our Client Relations Coordinator.
People choose to remodel their homes for a variety of reasons and the Team at The Cleary Company Remodel-Design-Build has over 28 years of experience improving the lives of their clients in Columbus, Ohio.
Finishing your basement can add a significant amount of usable living space to your home as well as increase its value. According to the 2022 Remodeling Impact Report from The National Association of Realtors® (NAR) Research Group and the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI) finishing your basement into additional living space will net you a cost recovery of up to 86%! This report is filled with valuable information with regards to everything remodeling.
So, let’s dive in! What does the report tell us about a basement remodel?
Americans spent $420 billion in 2020 on remodeling their homes according to a study from the Joint Center for Housing Studies at Harvard University. While most consumers responded they would have remodeled regardless of the pandemic, 86 percent of consumers report remodeling one area of their home made them want to then remodel other areas of their home.
Let’s focus on what else the report says about completing basement remodels! NAR utilizes a Joy score for each project based on happiness. We love this because we know that as remodelers, we provide a good deal of joy to our clients when they see their finished projects.
Adding new living space to a home with a basement remodel has a cost recovery value of 86%. “REALTORS® provided an estimate of the likely dollar value each project would add to the house at resale. In comparing that dollar value to the estimated cost of each project provided by NARI members, a Recovered Project Cost percentage was calculated.”
NARI Remodelers placed the cost estimate of a basement remodel at $57,500 (of course this is nationwide). Realtors® estimated a cost recovery is $49,250, so 86% is the percent of value recovered from the project on average.
The most interesting response we found is that regardless of the pandemic, 74% of those surveyed would have remodeled their basement.

There are many reasons why you may be ready for a remodel. Do your dated rooms feel old and tired? Does your home function for your current lifestyle? Or maybe you’d like to create a more accessible home to accommodate different life stages and abilities.
Our Design-Build Team at The Cleary Company in Columbus, Ohio takes our remodeling designs seriously and wants to be sure they are accessible for all. We collaborate with our clients to create a design plan that considers these and other accessibility challenges in their home.
3 Types of Accessibility Issues to Consider:
Visual — Use color to highlight or complement what is already visible but also ensure sufficient contrast. Paint door frames and doors a lighter color than the walls.
Motor/Mobility — Choose solid surface floors throughout like wood, tile or vinyl and minimize the number of transitions between materials. Eliminate or reduce the use of rugs or carpets. Wider hallways, doorways and traffic flow for accommodating wheelchairs, walkers, etc.
Auditory — Creating a more open concept floor plan allows for unobstructed sight lines for easier communication. The arrangement of the room can also make a significant difference for those who use lipreading or sign language. Circular or horseshoe seating layouts work best.
Design Features to Consider:
Single story living
Limited steps inside and outside
Wider hallways and entryways
Open floor plans
Low maintenance exterior and landscape
Varying height countertops
Easy-to-reach work and storage areas in the kitchen and bathrooms
Walk-in or zero-entry showers
Terminology used for Accessibility in Home Design
Living in Place or Aging in Place — Both used interchangeably have become more popular as people want to stay in their homes longer. This means the home needs to be safe, healthy, and comfortable for everyone in the household, no matter their age or accessibility. Are there hazards, barriers, or floor plan issues that need to be rectified to create a design that all people can use, especially those with memory, cognitive or physical challenges?
Universal Design — Sometimes used interchangeably with the previous two terms. This approach to home design is to meet the needs of everyone. Regardless of age, size, ability or accessibility, a design is created, understood, and used by everyone, as much as possible. Read more about Universal Design on our blog.
An excellent example of such design exists right here in Columbus! This 3,500sf ranch home was built in 2009. It is not only the private residence of Rosemarie Rossetti, Ph.D and her husband, Mark Leder but also a one-of-a-kind national demonstration home called the Universal Design Living Laboratory. Our Team had the privilege of touring this amazing home in 2015. We appreciate our conversations with Rosemarie, whose personal work in Universal Design has been instrumental in educating home industry professionals.
Universal Design Living Laboratory – 6141 Clark State Road, Columbus, Ohio 43230
ADA Compliant — This term refers to actual code compliance rules included in the American Disabilities Act Standards for Accessible Design. An ADA-compliant home follows these codes entirely.
Visit-ability — This one is interesting because it isn’t so much about who lives in the home, but who is visiting. How will they navigate throughout your home if they are wheelchair-bound or have other mobility issues?
Areas to consider:
Entrances and exits of the home
Bathroom accessibility
Bedroom access for those who can’t use stairs
Hallways should be wide enough to accommodate wheelchairs or motorized scooters
Adaptable Design — This realizes an important middle-ground area in the designing of homes, putting it somewhere between full accessibility and a home filled with accessibility challenges. Creating a remodeled home that can easily be adapted to accommodate changing needs can save money over time if it is thought of now.
Are there products or design elements that can be put in place now, that can be used later? You may not want a walk-in shower now, but will it be needed down the road? Does the structure behind the walls need to allow for grab bars to be added beside a toilet or in a shower? Does the island have an area that is lower, allowing a wheelchair to be rolled up to it?

Do you love an extra-long shower? Do you leave the water running the whole time you brush your teeth? Your bathroom is a major source of water use—from flushing the toilet and taking a shower, to brushing your teeth. Additionally, most bathrooms are filled with products that aren’t as eco-friendly as we would like.
Are you trying to conserve water in your home or working to be kind to the earth? We have put together a list of ways to conserve water and design ideas to create an eco-friendly bathroom. If we all do a little bit, we will make a significant difference!
Reduce Your Use of Water in Your Bathroom
Install Low-Flow shower heads and reduce overall shower time (we know, this one is really hard!). Shower plumbing has come a long way and newer low-flow shower heads do not mean reduced water pressure. Aim for one that has a flow rate of around 2.5 gallons a minute as compared to a standard one with a flow rate of 3 to 4 gallons a minute.
Installing aerators on your faucets will help reduce the amount of water used. An aerator mixes the water with air, creating an efficient, smooth flow of water. This, combined with turning off the water while brushing teeth or shaving, will significantly cut down on water usage. Watch this video for easy aerator installation!
A dual flush toilet can save a good deal of water in a year. Did you know that toilets use approximately 27% of the water consumed in a home? If installing a new toilet isn’t an option, there are several DIY options available for items you can put in your toilet tank to conserve water.
Tankless water heaters only heat the water when needed, which reduces the consumption of energy as well as the cost to heat the water. A family of 5 living in Columbus, Ohio would need a 10 GPM gas or 27 kW electric tankless heater. This might be something to consider when remodeling your home!
Ditch the large garden or built-in soaking tubs for a free-standing tub, that takes up less space and uses less water. This will cut down on the amount of water needed for a bath. Read our blog about removing garden tubs!
Designing an Eco-Friendly Bathroom
What can you do to make your bathroom a bit more sustainable and environmentally friendly? Even just implementing a few of these ideas could help the planet.
Product Choices
Find some beautiful reusable glass, plastic, or bamboo containers for your shampoo and soap. You buy them once and just refill as needed. Even better, take them to a store that offers refillable products.
Switch to shampoo, conditioner, and soap bars for hair and body care, instead of products in plastic bottles.
Use bamboo toothbrushes (most are 100% biodegradable-just throw them away, but not inside a plastic bag) to cut down on the amount of plastic that ends up in landfills and the ocean.
A hard one to make the switch to for some of us, switch to a responsibly-sourced toilet paper, which is more sustainable and made with materials that are better for the environment.
Room Design Options
Reclaimed wood cabinets are an environmentally friendly idea. Use FSC-certified wood for a more sustainable product.
Consider using materials for countertops and cabinets like glass, bamboo, stone, concrete, or tile as part of your design. These materials are part of a more sustainable plan.
Low-wattage exhaust fans still do the job, but at a lower wattage and better energy efficiency. What an easy change to make in any bathroom!
A skylight can let in loads of natural light, which cuts down on energy usage—you don’t need the lights on during the day or on a moonlit night.
Go sustainable with VOC-free paint (to cut down on chemicals), sustainable flooring, such as cork, bamboo, or eco-friendly concrete, and install LED lighting.
Add living plants to your bathroom. Plants that thrive in low-light and warm climates will thrive in a bathroom. They help clean the air and provide your bathroom with beauty and serenity.
Being eco-friendly isn’t always less expensive, so maybe start with a few items you can get behind and work towards more changes. If we can all just start with something, we will make a difference.

Everyone has a Top 5 list, right? Top 5 restaurants, books, places to vacation, breweries, sports teams, etc. Just like you, our Remodel-Design-Build Team at The Cleary Company, in Columbus, OH, has Top 5 lists. We’re sharing ours for bathroom products!
This Top 5 list highlights some of the tried-and-true go-to items favored by the collaborative relationship between our Design Team and clients. We enjoy being creative, thinking outside of the box, and making our clients’ visions come to life.
Our Top 5 Bathroom Products…in no particular order
Bathroom Addition in Attic Suite – Bexley OH
Frameless Shower—The options for showers are endless but we prefer the custom glass shower enclosures. Aesthetically frameless showers create unobstructed views with no bulky frames and complement almost any design style. Our clients like them for easier maintenance! Since the glass makes direct contact with tile or porcelain panel, it eliminates the build-up in the metal track of its framed counterpart.
Bidet Toilet Seat—This product can be added on to your existing or new toilet! Kohler has a variety of styles and options to choose from. Although used widely in European and Asian countries bidets are not as commonly used in the United States. The benefits of having a bidet are not only personal but environmental! Cleansing with water can be a cleaner, more refreshing alternative to toilet paper alone, plus potentially limit germ spread, and allow you to use less or completely eliminate the use of toilet paper.
Lighted Mirror—Backlit and lighted mirrors are stunning, and they can give any area a modern, sophisticated vibe. Both will provide enough lighting for grooming by illuminating the face with a diffuse, even light. LED lights, rather than incandescent lights, are used in most backlit mirrors. As a result, they will consume less energy and last a long time. Robern is our favorite brand!
Cambria Quartz—Where do we even begin? No matter what look our clients want, Cambria quartz products will make a splash. We’ve installed many Cambria bathroom countertops and benches over the years and when they launched their wall cladding, we couldn’t wait to install it on shower walls! Our clients love that they are hygienic, grout-free and low maintenance.
Shower Niche—Prefabricated and custom niches from Schluter are a hit with everyone! Designers like them because they’re easily adaptable to their tile designs. Our Production Team trusts their Kerdi-Board for waterproofing and vapor barrier management. And our clients like the additional storage in their showers.
Custom Tile Shower – Hilliard OH
