Are solar shingles a good option for my home? We live in Atlanta on a sunny lot with unshaded southern exposure. We're considering incorporating solar power in a new carriage house. Are solar shingles (like those Elon Musk / Solar City / Tesla recently announced) a good option for us?

I'm thinking about remodeling my kitchen, but have been cautioned to build in a substantial "cushion" for change orders. What is a change order exactly? And what is the best way to approach building a budget to include change orders?

We're opening a door off the back of our house and would love some advice on choosing the wood type. We're in the northeast. Door will face north and open to a deck. It will have a small portico above it and a screen door. It will be off our dining room so aesthetics are a consideration. We're going with either a 15 or 18 light, so lots of glass. Really wondering if fir or pine will work or if it's worth the $ for Oak or Mahogany. It will be stained dark.

What home repairs/renovations can (or should) I make to best keep cold winter temps out, and my indoor heat in? I live in an older home (with an attic and basement), and I want to avoid massively high heating bills this winter, if it's possible (It hasn't gotten too cold yet where I live...probably won't for at least 2-3 weeks). Should I upgrade my windows? Install new attic/basement insulation?
