CertainTeed Debuts Second Webisode Featuring Home Makeover Contest Winner

May 13, 2014

VALLEY FORGE, Pa. — CertainTeed has launched its second webisode in the 2013 Living Spaces Facebook Home Makeover Video Contest featuring the Bielfelt family of Mentor, Ohio. In this webisode, the family is empowered by CertainTeed’s digital design and color tools, allowing them to take a more active role in designing their home’s exterior makeover.

Using the CurbAppeal™ iPad app, ColorCoach™ virtual swatch book and ColorView™ home visualization design tool, the Bielfelts takes viewers along as they view and try on roofing, siding and trim color and profile options, and see them applied to a photo of its own home before installation. This, along with excellent guidance from their 5-Star Green and Master Shingle Applicator contractor, RJK Construction Co. of Willoughby, Ohio, helped the family choose a winning combination of products to create a vibrant exterior.

Grand prize winner of the $75,000 exterior makeover contest, the Bielfelts are the subject of a series of CertainTeed Living Spaces webisodes documenting the renovation of their 100-year-old home. The series follows the family, along with CertainTeed 5-Star Green, 5-Star Fence and Master Shingle Applicator contractors, from the planning stages of the renovation through its completion. In the first two webisodes, the homeowner selected multiple products, including Cedar Impressions® and Monogram® siding, Restoration Millwork® trim, EverNew® decking and railing, Bufftech® fence and Landmark™ Pro roofing. Check out the webisodes at the CertainTeed Living Spaces Facebook page (www.facebook.com/certainteedlivingspaces) or YouTube channel (www.youtube.com/ctlivingspaces).

This summer, another homeowner will be eligible to receive $75,000 worth of exterior building products, including installation. To enter the contest, homeowners need to round up their cast of kin, show off their acting talents and upload their most entertaining 30- to 90-second video to the CertainTeed Living Spaces Facebook page. Videos should creatively explain why the home needs a makeover using CertainTeed’s expansive selection of polymer, insulated and vinyl siding, roofing, housewrap, decking, railing, fence and trim. For more information and complete contest details, visit www.facebook.com/certainteedlivingspaces.
