Increase the value of your home with the right home improvements.
Looking to sell your home? As your home ages, it will need repairs and improvements to keep its value on the housing market.
Maybe you’ve got a few touch-ups you’d like to do on your home to maximize its value before you sell. Or, maybe you are starting with a real fixer-upper. You need some major renovation to make your house a home.
Kaufman can help you get the job done. We are a one-stop-shop for all your home improvement needs.
As a design center in Little Rock, we aim to have all the right tools and materials for any project.
The most cost-effective home improvement changes you can make.
Want to improve your home but have a tight budget? There are some easy ways to get your home looking spruced-up without spending too much money.
Painting with Valspar
Painting is easily the most cost-effective project you can undertake to improve your home. At Kaufman, we trust Valspar paint products.
Different colors have different emotional values. The color of your walls, ceilings, millwork, and cabinets are essential to your home’s overall feel. Valspar guarantees the right color.
Your journey does not end after choosing the right color for your space. You’ll have to choose between a variety of finishes (gloss or matte) and levels of durability. If you know your walls and cabinets are going to see a lot of activity — like if you have a pet or active young kids in your family, you’ll want to opt for the higher durability. Even if it raises the price point. Having to re-paint is more costly than choosing the right kind of paint in the first place.
Get your project done right with STIHL tools.
The tools you use to improve your home could mean the difference between an afternoon DIY and a week of work, then possibly calling a contractor. Tools are everything when it comes to home improvement. That’s why we trust STIHL.
The tool manufacturer did not wear its signature bright orange color until the late 1970s. The color was chosen among several other changes to rebrand the company. STIHL was founded in 1926 in Waibling, Germany. The brand’s signature quality tools and customer-first approach to business have made it a first choice for many contractors and homeowners.
To promote safety and best serve their customers, STHIL only sells products through authorized dealers. Every unit we receive must be unpacked and tested by our team before it can be sold. The team at Kaufman is trained to provide hands-on training to each customer wanting to purchase a STHIL tool.
Make the most of your new space.
Now that you’ve got a new and improved space to call home, it’s time to enjoy it. We are an authorized dealer for Big Green Egg and ORCA products. Both brands are focused on making the most of the great outdoors.
We’ve got an eye for quality brands:
- ORCA coolers are the best quality out there. They’ve got a wide variety of sizes and accessories. These coolers are great for everything from construction breaks to backyard BBQ parties.
- The Big Green Egg is the most versatile outdoor cooker ever. Use it for all your traditional grilling needs, or go all out and serve your friends and family fi
