Nearly two of every three home owners here will make some expenditures ex-penditures during the year to improve im-prove their property, according to the report. Painting of either the exterior or interior will be the most common repair, with work on roofs second and replacing or repairing heating equipment third. One of every eleven homes in the U.S. has water pipes repaired, a bathroom tiled or a shower installed in-stalled in an average year, the report revealed. Six of every 100 have carpentry work done.
