Eliminating Annoying Pests From Your Home Permanently

Home Remodeling – What It Can Do For Your Home

In today’s economy many families are foregoing buying new homes. Foreclosures, tight credit and other problems with the housing market have made remodeling a home more attractive. Remodeling a home not only gives it a face lift, it can be a way to increase value, and add much needed space to a dwelling. Remodeling can range from painting to adding a room addition. No matter how small the project, a remodel can make a home look stunning and increase value by thousands of dollars.

Remodel Economically With Paint

Paint is a low-cost way to brighten up a home from the inside out. Bright white paint used on molding and trim, and contrasting colors on walls can provide a fresh contemporary backdrop for all types of home furnishings. A nontraditional paint color on outside trim provides an unexpected touch of class. Stripping dated wallpaper and repainting a bathroom wall gives a bathroom an updated look.

Consider A Room Addition

A new room addition adds square footage to a home and will increase resale value. A den or recreation room can provide additional space for entertaining. Add an office or library for a quiet get-a-way space for meditating and relaxing, or reading.

Update The Kitchen

Kitchen remodeling allows the homeowner to update appliances, cabinets and flooring. The increased interest in do-it-yourself gourmet cooking make a commercial refrigerator and range and granite counter tops popular upgrades for those who like to entertain in the kitchen. When done tastefully, kitchen remodeling can add thousands of dollars to the value of a home.

Basement Remodeling

A basement left to itself is just wasted space. Add drywall, a ceiling and sunny yellow paint and this underground room becomes a bright and cozy den,play area or craft room. Take basement remodeling a step further by partitioning the basement into rooms. Add a small bathroom, closet, and a kitchenette for the perfect guest suite, or small apartment.

Bathroom Remodeling

Bathroom remodeling is another popular upgrade. A bathroom in a home can be enlarged or remodeled to resemble a mini-spa. Add a garden tub for soaking away sore muscles after a day of yard work, or maybe a body spray shower would be preferable. Sophisticated fixtures like vanities made of cherry or mahogany wood, with glass bowl sinks that appear to float on top of the vanities, remind a homeowner of baths found in luxury hotels.

The best aspect of home remodeling is that no space is to small for remodeling. When space is limited, consider using high quality materials that make an impact. This draws attention to the design elements rather than the size of the room. To save money, consider remodeling one space at a time.
