Which renovations will add the most value to your home?

With the property market constantly changing, investing in some home renovations is a sure fire way to increase the value. In this blog, we’ll take a look at some of the top home improvements which have a good return on investment. 

Outdoor living spaces

The pandemic led to a surge in demand for outdoor living spaces as we spent more time at home, and while those events are becoming a distant memory, the desire for improved outdoor space is as popular as ever. Everyone is looking to create a comfortable and functional outdoor area that allows us to entertain guests, relax and unwind. One of the easiest and most cost-effective ways of bringing this to your home is by installing French doors and patio doors. They allow you to view the wonderful outdoor space that you have created and give a great flow from the living space to the garden. Estate agents are finding a rise in home buyers adding French doors to their new house tick list. 

Kitchen remodelling 

The kitchen is the heart of the home, and it is one of the most important rooms when it comes to selling a property. A kitchen remodel can range from a minor facelift such as adding mirror splashbacks for a touch of glamour. Or a major overhaul, by upgrading countertops and cabinets. Even a small improvement to your kitchen can make a huge difference to the property value. 

Replacing windows

Replacing your windows before selling will increase the value of your home, and also show prospective buyers that your house is well maintained. New windows are also super duper for being more energy efficient than old, run down ones. They keep your home warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer. Reducing your heating and cooling costs. This can result in serious savings over the year. 

Give your house some curb appeal!

Make the front of your house look like the house of dreams for potential buyers! Make that great first impression and get yourself a new front door. Find a style that will compliment the rest of your house and surroundings. We have a handy door builder that will help you create your ideal door and get a quote sent to you. 

Extend if you can

Another fail-safe way to add value to your home is adding an orangery or conservatory. It is one of the easiest ways to add space to your property, and in most cases, you won’t need planning permission. Studies have shown adding a conservatory or orangery to your home can add up to 15% extra value, so it’s well worth the investment. Not only that but it creates a wonderful environment and can also double up as a home office. Which, let’s be honest, is a must for any home these days.
