Which of the following is NOT considered home improvement?

Renovation of an existing kitchen
Construction of a new home or building
Installation of windows in a house
Repairing a roof

The correct answer is: Construction of a new home or building

The construction of a new home or building is not classified as home improvement because home improvement specifically refers to the enhancement, renovation, or repair of an existing structure. This can include projects such as renovating kitchens, installing windows, or repairing roofs, all of which aim to upgrade or fix elements of a property that is already in existence. In contrast, building a new home or structure falls under a different category of construction and development. It involves creating a new entity from the ground up rather than improving or modifying something that is already there. Therefore, this activity is separate from the typical scope of home improvement projects.
