The National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) has debuted a new resource called the State Projections of Remodeling (SPR) that will provide a quarterly analysis of remodeling activity for each state in the nation based on total dollar volume, market share, and change in remodeling spending.
Based on a proprietary model developed by NAHB, the SPR on a quarterly basis provides a state-level estimation of the market share and total dollar value of remodeling spending. The SPR is a statistical model designed to use national quarterly improvement spending data and estimate remodeling market share by state using multiple indicators and NAHB’s annual state remodeling forecast.
“Given multiple tailwinds for industry expansion, such as the aging housing stock, the trend of aging-in-place improvements, and more homeowners that are choosing to stay put, we are forecasting that remodeling spending will continue to grow in both the short-term and the long-run,” said Eric Lynch, economist for NAHB. “The SPR will fill a much-needed research gap within the marketplace.”
The top five states, broken down by market share and dollar volume for the fourth quarter of 2025, are:
- California: 7.9%, or $22.11 billion
- Texas: 7.0%, or $19.7 billion
- Florida: 5.5%, or $15.3 billion
- New York: 3.9%, or $11.0 billion
- North Carolina: 3.0%, or $8.4 billion
With respect to market growth, the SPR reveals these five states had the largest change in remodeling spending:
- Michigan: up $965.1 million (+15.9%)
- Virginia: up $631.6 million (+9.6%)
- North Carolina: up $601.6 million (+7.6%)
- Ohio: up $600.0 million (+8.6%)
- Alabama: up $445.5 million (+12.0%)
