With quarantine restrictions still in place, many individuals are filling their time by completing home improvement projects. There are hundreds of ways to update a living space to make it feel more like home. Many of these projects also end up making a house more valuable in the long run. Raleigh Cary Realty has listed some suggestions for helpful home projects for the handyman.
Here are four home projects to update a living space:
- Spice up the kitchen or bathrooms with new floor tile: Tile can transform an entire room. The colors and size of the tile can impact how big the room looks. For example, a larger tile makes a room look more spacious because of the lack of grout lines. Whether it is for aesthetic purposes or for enlarging a room, updating tile is always a good idea when improving a home.
- Paint the front door: The front door is a very important part of a house. It is the first thing that guests see before entering, therefore, it is crucial to keep it looking fresh. Just simply painting the front door will improve the overall appearance of the exterior of a house.
- Switch out old light fixtures for new ones: Adding new light fixtures or switching out old ones can affect the mood of the room and make a place feel more welcoming. There are also many choices for energy-efficient lighting that ultimately reduce costs.
- Refresh and revitalize the kitchen cabinets: Most individuals spend a fair amount of time in their kitchens, and cabinets take up a lot of space. There are many different ways to refresh cabinets such as painting, re-facing, or adding crown molding.
While these upgrades can make a home feel more up-to-date, they can also add value to a home. When adding these new touches to your home, talk to the experienced realtors at Raleigh Cary Realty. We appraise, buy, or sell homes and work alongside buyers and sellers throughout the process.
