What’s your goal in renovating your house? To get more living space or to improve the appearance of your home? Whatever it is, it should be functional and meet all of your needs. When you look around your space, you will find there are plenty of things that need improvement both inside and outside the house. So here are some renovation tips for your house and how you can renovate certain areas with no hassle too.
KITCHEN
If you have a small kitchen you can enlarge it by knocking out part of a wall between two rooms, if possible. When adding in new cabinetry ensure they reach up to your ceilings to avoid any unsightly exposed spaces in the new kitchen. Also adding in some custom pullout drawers, shelving and gadgets can make all the difference too.
LIVING ROOM
For the living room, if it feels too small, instead of knocking down walls to create more space, try some new furniture that will fit better in the room. If you have a bookcase or entertainment center on one side of the living room, put some shelving on the other side so that you can have more open space to walk around. Or get new recliners or couches that aren’t bulky and don’t take up much space. When making your decision on buying new furniture, be sure to think about how much use they’ll get if you’re planning to keep them for years but never use them all that often, then go for higher quality pieces.
BATHROOM
If you’re renovating your bathroom, to get the most out of it is to make it bigger. The easiest way is to simply expand into an unused closet or storage area if there are any spaces adjoining that is. If that’s not possible, then invest in new cabinets and countertops that will give you more storage space. Quick renovation tips for your house is to change the hardware which can be an instant facelift.
BEDROOM
If you’re renovating your bedroom, the best way to make it feel new is to change up the paint color. You can also add some new wall art or a headboard to give it a fresh look. Another option is to buy new furniture, but be sure to get something that’s versatile and will grow with your needs—for example, a bed with storage underneath or a dresser that has hidden compartments.
BASEMENT
If you’re renovating your basement, the best way to make it more functional is by adding some extra living space. You can do this by adding in another family room or home office. If you have the money, you can also try installing a new bathroom, a small kitchen, or even a guest bedroom.
GARAGE
The best way to renovate your garage is to organize it better. Get some new shelving and cabinets, so everything has its own place. And be sure to mark what is stored where, so there’s no confusion when you’re looking for something. If you don’t have enough space to put everything away, then maybe it’s time to start disposing of old junk that isn’t being used anymore.
BACKYARD
To renovate your backyard, the first thing to do is to mow the grass and remove all of the weeds. Get a rubbish removal company to assist. If you have a deck, paint it or refinish it so that it looks new. And finally, put in some new plants or flowers so your backyard will look nice and inviting to guests.
EXTERIOR
The best way to renovate your exterior is to clean every surface. Remove every rock, plant, and piece of garbage in your yard. Also, re-shingle any roof that needs it. And lastly, paint the exterior, so for an instant refresh.
