Especially with the holidays right around the corner, everyone wants a gorgeous home to host festive parties and events in. Whether you just want to add a few cosmetic touches or do a complete home renovation, it can be hard to figure out where to start. We’ve scoured the web and found some home improvement tips on the website of everybody’s favorite cable channel, HGTV.
The kitchen is the heart of the home, making one of the top upgrades a kitchen remodel. Some basic ways to update your kitchen space is to refresh the room with new paint, add a backsplash, and refinish your cabinets. If it’s in your budget, consider adding high end touches like stone countertops and commercial grade, stainless steel appliances.
Another popular home improvement project is bathroom remodels. Walk-in showers have become very desirable in recent years, along with upscale features like all-wood cabinets, stone countertops, and heated floors. Also, replacing old faucets and sinks go a long way towards making your bathroom look fresh.
While it’s easy to focus on the interior, you’ll still want to add some curb appeal. The first impression is important, so consider adding landscaping, a front porch, outdoor window treatments, or anything else that makes your home look warm and inviting when people first drive up. While you’re at it, don’t forget basic home maintenance, like siding, roofing, and windows. A well maintained home is always a great selling point!
