Walking around your home, you suddenly get the urge that it’s time to renovate. Before you decide on what renovation to do, think about the length of time that has passed since the house was built or renovated. If you come up with a number that’s close to 15 years, then it may indeed be time for an upgrade.
Now comes the difficult part: Choosing what renovation to do. Of course, if you’ve got the dough, there’s no reason why you can’t have every renovation you can think of in one go, but if you don’t, then you have to weigh your options carefully and prioritise the features that would deliver the best return for your money. Below is a list of home improvements that could add the most value, according to a recent Daily Mail article:
Conservatory
Do you have a conservatory that’s starting to look a tad tired? Or perhaps it’s not as energy efficient as it used to be, becoming too cold in winter and excessively warm in summer? Make the most of that living space with the help of Coventry property maintenance professionals. According to Daily Mail, improving your conservatory comes with a 108 per cent return on investment.
Exterior
You have plenty of options to boost your home’s appearance and enhance its curb appeal. Repainting or stripping the exterior and replacing it with new materials, repairing broken roof tiles and chipped doorframes—these are just a few examples of what you could do with your home’s exterior. The article says such projects often come attached with an ROI of 75 per cent.
Extension
Adding more levels to a home or spreading out where space allows is a popular renovation option for older houses. Extending the existing home is a more cost-effective option than relocation and improves the quality of life, as well as adds value to the property. By how much, you may ask? ROI for extensions stands at 71 per cent, the article states.
Your home is your castle, and to renovate it is to make a decision that would improve your lifestyle. Provided that you do the proper research and select an honest and experienced Coventry general property maintenance expert like the Trade Squad, the renovation you’d choose for your home is something you would enjoy for many years after.
