<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1512" title="Todd Fratzel" src="http://pix2brix.com/wp-content/uploads/Todd-Fratzel.jpg" alt="Todd Fratzel" width="150" height="145" />If you&#8217;re looking for great advice from a home construction expert, look no further than  Todd Fratzel of the <a href="http://www.homeconstructionimprovement.com/" target="_blank">Home Construction &amp; Improvement</a> blog. Todd is the principal engineer for a large design-build firm and his expertise is oozing from his posts. He writes voraciously — at least compared to most bloggers who have non-blogger full-time jobs. And his posts are detailed and well-written. If you have seen his insightful comments on one of my blogs, you have an idea of what he has to offer.</p>
<p>In addition to that, he&#8217;s a genuinely nice and very helpful guy. Seriously, I&#8217;ve been reading his blog for months. Ask him a question in the comments of a blog post, and you&#8217;re pretty sure to get a response in a short time.</p>
<p>He also runs lots of contest. As in free stuff for homeowners. Currently he&#8217;s offering a free <a href="http://www/pix2brix.com/delta-faucet-pilar-touch2o">Delta touch-activated faucet</a> to the winner of his latest contest. To enter, just post a comment (include your email address!) on <a href="http://www.homeconstructionimprovement.com/delta-pilar-touch-activated-faucet-touch2o-giveaway/" target="_blank">this thread</a>. Simple!</p>
<p>Good luck! Please let me know if you win!<strong>Similar Posts:</strong>
