EXETER - Renovations which began last summer at Moffatt and Powell's Exeter store are now corn pletc and a grand opening will stark the occasion this week. Store manager Jim Rolph con- siders the improvements to thou store and warehouse as positive steps forward for the business: The existing 273 square metres of retail floor space have been in creased to 400 square metres, but Rolph considers the visual lacelitt to be of major inilxtrtance. "The store used to look pr en y dingy before, now it's tre\Itly painted and attractive," he said. The exterior has also been gnVrn <t trussed roof and steel siding. Not only is it better looking, but it will conserve energy with better insulation. Two gas furnaces have replaced an old oil burner to reduce energy costs further. The largest percentage of Mol lalt and Powell's business is with pro fcssional contractors, but Rolph says "The do-it-v'ouiself market is picking up." Each year he secs more homeownL rs who aie willing to tackle home improvement pio jests 00 their own. Moffat and Powell are inc oipo rating a new slogan to rel lei t this renewed interest in home iniprovc- ntent. 'You can buy where the builders buy," will be the new catch phrase with their advertising. "Kitchens and bathrooms are big items," said Rolph of current trends in renovations. The expanded store will incorporate a display of in- st(Ick whirlpool tubs to cater to the (iernarKl. Other hot items for dressing up local horses are new windows and ceramic .tile, both of which Rolph says some homeowners are install- ing thcrnsclvcs. - "Since housing is at a high, peo- ple are spending more on renovating their existing home," Rolph said, adding that high home prices make renovation a strong alternative to. buying, and the cost of renovation can often be recovered when the home is sold. 'Hie company now operates seven stores in Southwestern Ontario. Keith Moffatt and Mel Powell opened their first store in Watford, six years ago then expanded to - Str.ithroy and Mitchell. They pur- chased the Conklin stores in Exeter and (1odcrich in 1982. itolph thinks one of the best ben- efits from the S75-100,000 renova— tions to the store will be the paved driveway. "ihc original gravel drive- way was not only pitted with pot- holes, but customers often com- plained of getting wet feet in the puddles.
