The strongreal estate market and increasingly popular nesting trend mean that more Americans are participating in doit-yourself projects.

Kitchens and baths are the favorite spots to remodel, kitchens accounting for nearly half of all remodeling projects in the country, but decks and basement rec rooms are also popular.
