Renovating your home: some ideas to get you started
Depending on the level of work needed for your home, these renovation ideas could be the perfect place to start.
Extensions: Whether it’s extending over the garage or into the loft space, providing you can secure planning permission, extensions are a great way to increase the size of your home.
Cosmetic renovations: From repainting walls to sanding and varnishing banisters and traditional wooden floors to bring back their lustre, cosmetic renovations can make a big difference to your home and often for a small price.
Restoring period features: If you’ve snapped up a period home then help to take it back in time by restoring original features such as sash windows, cornicing and feature fireplaces.
Re-arrange the space in your home: From knocking down non-load bearing internal walls to transforming a box room into a much needed downstairs toilet, reconfiguring the space in your home could serve to transform the look and feel of your property.
