Home Improvements - The Increasing popularity of external home ...

Internal home improvement projects such as painting and decorating living rooms and bedrooms, tiling bathrooms, replacing carpets and flooring right up to the installation of brand new top of the range fitted kitchens, bathroom suites and new kitchen appliances have always been the most popular types of improvements undertaken by people in the UK, In recent years, however this has changed and external home improvements are now overtaking as the most popular type of home improvements even though they cost considerably more than their internal counterparts.

So, if these external home improvement projects cost considerably more then what is the attraction and why are people choosing them over simpler more cost efficient internal improvements? The main reason for this change is the current economic downturn and the poor state of the housing market in the UK due to the recession, where as a majority of internal projects were undertaken as an aid to selling a house, more expensive external projects are generally undertaken to improve the quality of living for the current homeowners who have decided to stay put and improve rather than more house and upscale.

When doing home improvements or home remodels for one's own benefit the emphasis seems to be on quality and benefits rather than getting a budget job done for the minimum amount of money, so many people are now choosing the most attractive and beneficial options meaning that budget, unskilled, one man band type outfits that advertise in the local press are losing out to the larger better known home improvement groups with an army of estimators, fitters, installers and not to mention satisfied customers. Apart from the always popular and sometimes necessary replacement windows and doors, the second most popular external home improvement project at present seems to be driveways, paths and patios, as there is nothing more satisfying than driving up a beautiful driveway to your home, both for yourself and your visitors who will be equally impressed, but even with this project there are a couple of options depending on your preference. Forget tarmac, it's dated and unattractive and best left for the public roads. You have two other options, one is pattern imprinted concrete and the other is block paving.

Pattern imprinted concrete driveways can be any style and colour you want it to be, within reason, and for a professional driveway company the process is quick and the results are durable and long lasting, imprinted concrete isn't just standard concrete, it is a specially manufactured mix allowing for flexibility and durability, finished with an acrylic sealer . The results are truly impressive, giving you a beautiful, weed free, maintenance free driveway that will last for years. Some people do prefer the more traditional block paving, which when done correctly and by a professional driveway company can still look very beautiful, the benefit of block paving is that unlike pattern imprinted concrete that requires a dry day for laying , block paving can still be laid in adverse weather conditions, the drawback of block paving is that over time you will need to weed between blocks and sometime a block can become loose due to underground movement, a phenomenon that doesn't have an effect on imprinted concrete due it's electric properties and way it is laid to compensate for movement . If your still undecided you should probably have a survey done (most professional driveway companies offer free surveys) to see which option is the best for you.

Express Home Improvements Group offer a range of services including a unique online conservatory quote system, roof coating, pattern imprinted concrete and more.

Marine wife's murder linked to 'sex dungeon'

By NBC News staff and wire reports

Three roommates involved with a "sex dungeon" at their home may have murdered a Marine's wife in California as they tried to satisfy their fetishes, investigators say in newly unsealed search warrants.

Detectives found "bondage type sex apparatuses, toys and tools" at the home of the two women and man who have been charged with murder in the death of 22-year-old Brittany Killgore. Her body was found near a Southern California lake on April 17, less than a week after she was reported missing.

Investigators believe all three suspects were with Killgore at their home in Fallbrook, north of San Diego, shortly after the victim sent a desperate text message to a friend, "Help."

Killgore was last seen April 13 in a borrowed purple evening gown, three days after she filed for divorce from Lance Cpl. Cory Killgore, who was serving in Afghanistan at the time. The documents say her body was found with neck injuries consistent with strangulation and marks on her wrist and leg that suggested someone tried to use a saw or other tool to dismember her.

---

A San Diego County sheriff's detective said in one affidavit that the trio may have targeted Killgore for their "unusual sexual fetishes." Louis Ray Perez and Dorothy Maraglino told authorities they were involved in "master, servant and slave role playing."

The third suspect, Jessica Lopez, said she strangled the victim, fearing the victim would upend a kinky sex ring by seducing her "Master," according to the warrants. Lopez wrote in a seven-page letter that she believed Killgore was trying to come between her, Perez and Maraglino. All three have pleaded not guilty.

Lopez, who calls Perez her "Master," shoulders full blame for the killing, according to the warrants, saying she acted after the victim told her that she had a "whole night planned" with Perez, comments suggesting jealousy was a motive.

Lopez, 25, said she had been burned before in a relationship and knew what she had to do when Killgore entered their Fallbrook home. Lopez said she shot the victim with a stun gun, wrapped a rope around a neck, buried her face in a pillow and strangled her.

"She barely moved but she just wouldn't die, the miserable whore," the letter said.

Lopez said she made "a few attempts to chop her up" with Perez's power tools and doused Killgore's body in bleach to get rid of evidence before dumping the nude body near Lake Skinner, near Riverside.

The documents give no indication that Killgore knew about the sex ring, and prosecutors call her an innocent victim. Detectives said she accepted Perez's invitation to a San Diego dinner cruise after Perez helped her move that afternoon. The warrants do not say how Killgore met the suspects.

Sloan Ostbye, Lopez's attorney, joined the San Diego County district attorney's office in an appeal to keep the documents sealed, calling much of her client's letter "false or at least misleading and possibly delusional."

In her letter, Lopez told police she wasn't responsible for the killing. Detectives found it in a San Diego hotel where Lopez was discovered with self-inflicted cuts four days after Killgore disappeared.

The handwritten letter ? below a mirror that was scrawled with the word "PIGS READ THIS" ? accused police of "complete incompetence." It is laced with profanity and poor punctuation.

The letter says where the body was dumped, telling police they would likely find handcuff marks on the wrists. It says the handcuffs and a knife were disposed at a beach restroom in Oceanside.

Three days after Killgore vanished, detectives searched Perez's mud-caked 2001 Ford Explorer and found a plastic bag with a stun gun, latex gloves and Killgore's blood. Perez's DNA was found on the stun gun.

The documents describe an elaborate ruse for Perez to conceal his whereabouts on the night Killgore vanished.

The Marine told detectives he picked up Killgore for the dinner cruise but instead dropped her off at a downtown San Diego nightclub. He said he couldn't find her at the club after parking and returned home.

Killgore's and Perez's cell phones remained in Fallbrook that night, contradicting his statement that he was in San Diego, according to authorities.

Killgore sent a text message to a friend that said, "Help," at 7:50 p.m., about 13 minutes after Perez picked her up. The friend asked if she was OK and insisted she call. About two hours later, the friend got a response, "Yes I love this party," which fueled suspicions because Killgore always texted 'yeah' instead of 'yes' and had said nothing about going to a party.

A transient found Killgore's phone at his feet when he woke up in the doorway of a downtown San Diego hotel that night. A San Diego County sheriff's detective said he believed Perez drove downtown to get rid of the phone.

All three defendants are being held on $3 million bail. A preliminary hearing is scheduled Aug. 21.
