If you have been making lists of home renovations you want to carry out then the time may have come to start doing some of these. It can be daunting carrying out renovations as you want them to turn out how you dream of it. If you don’t have the necessary experience then you could hire someone to help you out. Check out the list below for some inspiration on home renovations that will make your home stand out and look amazing.

Lighting 

Something you may have been wanting to change for some time is the lighting around your home. If you still have the same lighting from when you moved in then it is time to update this. Lighting is one of the more cost effective renovations on the list and won’t eat into your budget too much. Head to your local lighting showroom to see what you want to install, if you can’t do this then a qualified electrician or local handyman will be able to do this for you. 

Flooring 

Another thing you can do is update your flooring throughout your home. This is something that gets destroyed easily and quickly as people walk on it all the time. In heavy foot traffic areas you might want to think about adding a rug to save the flooring. If you currently have carpet then you might want to change it to hardwood flooring, or vice versa. There are pros and cons to both flooring options so it is all about finding the one that suits you and your lifestyle. While carpet can look nicer and is much warmer than hardwood flooring, it is significantly harder to clean. 

Garden 

Head out into your garden and think about what you can do to this as well. Don’t neglect the garden as you don’t want to have a gorgeous interior and rubbish garden. In the summer months you could find yourself entertaining in the garden so you want it to look its best. If you want a low maintenance garden then you could swap out your real grass for artificial turf. This not only looks nice all year round but means you won’t have to be out here every two weeks mowing it. 

Walls

Think about how your walls are looking, could they do with some love and attention? If so, then think about what you would prefer. This could be wallpaper or paint, with paint being the easiest option. However, there are some wallpapers that are absolutely beautiful and will complete the overall aesthetic of your home. Matching wallpapers will cost you slightly more as you will need extra rolls when it comes to matching up the print and shapes. 

Windows

Lastly, if your windows have seen better days then it is time to change these. Over time windows can lose their seals and let cold air in, you can only reseal them so many times before it is far more cost effective to replace them. Check out local rates and prices to find out who can do this for the best price. You should also think about window coverings, this could be anything from shutter blinds to heavy thermal curtains.
