23rd Annual Visalia Home Expo Set for September 21-22

The 23rd Annual Visalia Home Expo returns to the Visalia Convention Center on September 21-22 with an all-new assortment of home-related products and services.

"Fall is a great time to consider redecorating and even remodeling before the onslaught of relatives arrives for the upcoming holidays," said Show Manager Steve Tarter. "This includes older children returning home from college, and older parents spending time with their grand and great-grand kids."

There are a lot of reasons for seniors to attend the Visalia Home Expo.

At the show, they can find energy saving options, health plan alternatives, Home Depot how-to demos, Master Gardener gardening tips, food preservation techniques, new home internet plans, information about community services such as the Visalia Gleaning Seniors and the Visalia Veterans, and even a collection of Buffalo Cowboy Soldier memorabilia.

The Home Expo provides an opportunity to compare local companies that do kitchen upgrades, bath retrofits, install new flooring and enhance window coverings with the latest styles.

In addition, although it's fall, the summer heat lingers. There is still time to prepare for outdoor dining, secure help with landscaping or pool construction, or add a patio awning to enhance the backyard.

For those interested in ways to lower utility costs, the show will feature HVAC dealers, solar panel experts, insulation and airflow specialists. SCE's Education Booth will provide information about rebates available for that next project.

In addition, the show features smart home systems that ensure family safety and security.

This year's Street of Dreams offers ideas for a home office, guest room, art studio, man cave or a completely separate small house from Modern Sheds.
