2016 Home Makeover Winner – Lucy Pascoe of Clarkston, MI
Lucy Pascoe of Clarkston is the winner of the C&L Ward $10,000 Home Makeover for the calendar year of 2016! She entered our Sweepstakes in October at the Taste of Clarkston event, with interests in new siding, doors and decking. After an initial appointment and visit from one of our In-Home Consultants, she received an estimate for CertainTeed Vinyl Siding as her current siding was wood and woodpeckers were invading it! But, it was decided to wait on the project in order save up the money needed. As you can image, she was thrilled to hear she was announced as our winner in Spring of 2017 and could move forward with the project. A lovely shade of Autumn Yellow siding with white window wraps brightened the curb appeal, and new gutters and a storm door put the finishing touches on the home.

2008 Winner – Ms. Chiffon Berry of Lansing
Chiffon was in disbelief after hearing that she had won the free Home Makeover. Her first thought was “I’ve never won anything before, this could not have been true. Nothing is free.” After meeting and speaking with President, Pat Ward, and his staff she felt assured that it in fact was true. “The staff did a great job explaining the products and services they offer.” Chiffon especially liked the seminars, “they were great and I really enjoyed them. The staff was nice and very informative.” After attending the Home Improvement Seminars Chiffon decided to have all her windows replaced with new Marvin Infinity Fiberglass Windows.
It has been our extreme pleasure to give our second $10,000 Home Makeover to Chiffon Berry. C&L Ward has always looked for ways to reward the communities and the people we serve. Every year our $10,000 Home Makeover grows, and we look forward to rewarding someone a new Home Makeover in the future.

2007 Winner – The Kowalski family of Highland
The Kowalski’s are still in awe after being selected the winner in the $10,000 Home Makeover Sweepstakes. The Highland Michigan couple were selected from thousands of entrants from throughout Mid-Michigan.
We were a little skeptical at first, but after we met with Pat Ward and his staff at C&L Ward Brothers, we knew they were providing us a wonderful opportunity to improve the curb appeal of our home”, says Darin Kowalski. “We’ve decided to replace our roof with our makeover, as well as add new vinyl siding to our home,” continues Darin. “One thing that we found really exciting was C&L Ward’s HomeVision Visualization Design Program. We were able to see our Home Makeover finished before it even started. Their designer used a digital photo, and updated our home using the roof and vinyl siding colors we selected. We can’t wait to see our “new” home for real this spring,” says Emily.
This is the first time C&L Ward has held such a Sweepstakes. “It has been a real pleasure working with Darin & Emily to make their home makeover dreams come true” says Pat Ward, President of C&L Ward, “We are so pleased with the response and excitement it generated, we are planning to hold another $10,000 Home Makeover Sweepstakes next year.
