Maryland homeowners who hired an MHIC-licensed contractor for a 2003 home improvement project are being asked to nominate their contractor for a 2003 Remodeler of the Year Award given by the Maryland Improvement Contractors Association (MICA).

"We are encouraging homeowners to get involved in determining this year's awards recipients," said MICA President Chris Garvey of Sun Spots, Inc. "If they feel their improvement contractor merits consideration for one of MICA's award categories, they should contact MICA's offices. We will then send this endorsement, along with the official nomination form, to the contractor."

Upon receipt of a nomination submission from a contractor, MICA will send a letter to the homeowner asking for their opinion of the project to be factored in to the judging process. Membership in MICA is not a requirement for submission.

MICA recognizes excellence in workmanship in 12 categories including: residential kitchens (less than $25,000 and over $50,000), residential baths (under $40,000 and over $40,000), residential interiors (under and over $40,000), residential exteriors (under and over $50,000), residential specialty, entire home, commercial, and historical residential projects. Winners will be featured in Chesapeake Home magazine.

To nominate a home improvement contractor for the Awards, simply send or fax your name, address, the name and address of your home improvement contractor and the category of nomination to MICA, 720 Light St., Baltimore, MD 21230, fax (410) 752-8295, or e-mail MICA@assnhqtrs.com. Projects may also be nominated online at www.MarylandRemodelers.com/royalnominations.htm.

The deadline for homeowner nominations is September 10.
