Do Something With Your Driveway



A driveway without solar is dead space. Novel Remodeling believes the simplest solution is the best. So if you have a driveway, make something of it with a Solar CarPort installation.

Do Something With Your Driveway

All a carport does on its own is protect your vehicle from the sun. Integrate solar paneling directly with the structure to transform it into a solar roof, that equipped with a charging station, becomes a self sustained energy source for your vehicle.

Be Smart About Your Solar Energy, Not Ugly

In an attempt to catch solar energy, many households sacrifice their yards to install an unfortunate looking garden of solar panels to their landscape. Unlike ground mounted solar panels, carports don’t require you to isolate valuable land just for the sake of generating energy.

 Take a look at Whole Foods. They have over 325 kilowatts of solar paneling above their massive parking lot in their largest New York location. It’s just smart business. Why choose to leave space wasted?

If you are the current owner of a non-solar carport, it’s possible to upgrade what you have simply by installing solar panels onto it. The change could not be easier with a licensed contractor like Novel Remodeling, your neighbors in the Burbank area.

 For the curious homeowners, solar carports are bare cents away from being as energy efficient as rooftop solar. Have a look here.

 Expand Your Solar Energy Life

 This may not be your first venture with solar. Just like solar roofing installation, solar water heaters, cellphone chargers, blinds (yes they exist) a solar carport is just the next logical step for an increasingly green lifestyle.

 The fact is, solar roofing requires a smart streamlining of energy consumption. We know what it’s like to really hunt down energy efficient appliances, but adding a car to that equation makes it keep your solar energy cost low. That’s why a solar carport is a great addition to any green-centric household. It takes care of itself, not adding a burden to what you already have.

Now is Better Than Ever

It’s not 2010 anymore. Just as cellphones went from bricks to slats, solar carports have streamlined as competition has driven down costs.

 In 2010 solar carports could cost up to $8.5 thousand just to install. Now, that number is around $2.5 in 2017.

 From an industry standpoint the game has completely changed. But it goes even further.
Burbank Water and Power is offering incredible rebates on charging stations for your electric vehicles starting at 1k. Use this money to help fund your solar carport project.

 Because these are government funded, the energy industry doesn’t really want you knowing about these sales, but now that you know, it makes installing a solar carport all too feasible.

Kitchen Remodeling Anxiety is the Trend in LA

In Los Angeles pulling the trigger on any renovation truly feels like a commanded final decision, the sort of thing that either racks up the value of a home or plummets it to the size of a pea. With contract work I take a middle stance between making suggestions on potential home improvement because all in all I want the homeowner to point blank just say what they need out of their kitchen remodeling job. The reason is simple. You remodel for you. Not for your friends / the next homeowners / the mailman. You remodel your kitchen for you. So you can tell me about how you can’t have your dream kitchen because it’ll stick out too much in a neighborhood that’s not heading your way. I’ll say don’t worry about it. Let them fall behind. I’ll lead you through the biggest kitchen remodeling phobias homeowners have had, and explain how clearly it never mattered. Countertops That Are Gentle Souls A friend of mine after quitting his shaggy haired band settled with wo...

Stop LA Fires : Fire-Proof Roofing

Fire-Resilient Roofing in Los Angeles Let’s get this out of the way. In California regulation does not gamble on inferior materials. In some places it’s actually illegal to get a roofing replacement that isn’t made of a material with an A rating against fire resistance. Roofing Fire-Resistance Ratings Class A – Roof coverings are effective against severe fire test exposures. Under such fire exposures, roof coverings of this class afford a high degree of fire protection to the roof deck, do not slip from position, and are not expected to produce flying brands. Class B – Roof coverings are effective against moderate fire test exposures. Under such fire exposures, roof coverings of this class afford a moderate degree of fire protection to the roof deck, do not slip from position, and are not expected to produce flying brands. Class C – Roof coverings are effective against light fire test exposures. Under such fire exposures, roof coverings of this class affor...

The Solar Industry is Changing its Rules

Switching to Solar In Thousand Oaks, solar power is taking the fight against big energy companies like Southern California Edison that has them scrambling for business. So much energy is being channeled through solar that electrical plants which run 24/7 for Los Angeles are at risk of being completely shut down. We at Novel Remodeling love clean energy, but we want to warn you of changes in the solar industry that are going to cause problems for those who choose solar installation after July 1, 2017 in onset of NEM 2.0. Let’s talk about what the current rule is. What is NEM 1.0 When you apply for solar you’re asking to be a part of the grid, which means that the solar energy your panels accumulate goes into a big pool of energy that gets shared throughout the grid. So, at night when the sun’s down, you are given a credit of the excess energy you generated throughout the day and are able to use that energy when the sun’s down. Notice how NEM 1.0 works in your fav...
