5 Ideas for a Productive Fourth of July Weekend

5 Ideas

1. Put Your Flag Up
Give Old Glory some fresh air this July 4th and put up a flag holder on the house.

2. Clean the Pool
Know one wants to go swimming in a green pool! Get out your bathing suit, pool brushes and chlorine and get ready to have a pool party.

3. Dust of the Grill
Even though your barbeque tastes so good you might want to clean that grimy grill.

4. Get Out The Paint
Stop procrastinating and take advantage of the long weekend to get some house painting done. When you’re finished you’re guaranteed a big bang.

5. Recycle!
Now that the fun is over and you have a large trash can of glass bottles and other recyclable items. Head down to your local recycling facility and cash in…

The Fourth of July is supposed to be enjoyable. We BBQ food, swim, enjoy the sun and gather together with our family and friends. But with all the joys of the holiday comes potential safety hazards, so be sure to take extra precautions and be safe.

Want to Win a $200 Home Depot Gift Card?

UPDATE - This Contest ended 6/30. Keep checking back on our ConstructionDeal.com Update blog for more contests! Here was our winner!

Announcing a new contest where you can win a Gift Card from Home Depot! At ConstructionDeal.com we want to help you get your projects done. And at Home Depot, they're helping out, too. With their tool rental department.

Didn't know that Home Depot rents tools? They do!

I recently completed a bamboo flooring installation in my house and used the Home Depot rental center to get a floor stapler. They provided the hammer that goes with it and they even sell the staples you need for your flooring installation. The helpful staff will even give you instructions on how to use the tools properly.

And it's not just floor staplers. They've got dozens of other tools you can rent by the hour, day or even longer. They rent concrete breakers, pressure washers, trenchers, sod cutters, wet saws, drywall lifters and a whole lot more.

Are you a do-it-yourselfer like me? This is a great chance for you to win a $200 gift card from Home Depot to handle your next remodeling or repair project. With $200, you can buy materials, products, or even... rent tools!

Check out all the tools available for rental today.
