Good Day tomamy06,
Capital improvements to your personal residence can not be written off; they are added to the basis of your home and will help when you sell the home. Capital improvements to a rental property can be depreciated, written off, over a specified period of time based on the type of improvement,
IRS Publication 530 has a list of improvements on page 19.
