How to Renovate Your House Room By Room
This is a collaborative post
Your home is more than simply a place to lay your head and to provide warmth and shelter. It’s a place to call your own, and every house should reflect the family inside. Whether your home is looking a bit tired due to wear and tear, or you’ve just moved into a new home and want to put your stamp on it, there is always a point to consider a renovation.
A full renovation is always a big ask, especially when you have a family to look after as well. Often, the easiest way to tackle it is to work room by room. Here’s how to get the project off the ground.
Kitchen
The biggest job you’ll have to deal with will undoubtedly be your kitchen. Your kitchen is like the stomach of your house, and every growing family knows just how important it is to keep everyone happy and well-fed.
Your kitchen should ideally be both functional and beautiful, so spending hours there becomes less of a chore. For a unique and stunning result, look into bespoke luxury kitchens. This is such a huge project that it’s worth creating a perfect kitchen that you can love for years to come because ideally, it should last that long.
You can always patch up your new kitchen years down the line, replacing cupboard doors and replenishing the paint job to make sure it always looks brand new.
Bathroom
The second most important room in your home could arguably be the bathroom. Yes, you spend less time in there, but anyone who has had to go without a serviceable bathroom for an extended period knows just how vital this room is for any family.
If you only have one bathroom, then consider adding a second bathroom. This can make family life far easier to get through, allowing the morning rush to settle down. Otherwise, consider a bathroom renovation for that luxury hotel experience, which makes life so much nicer.
Living Room
Your living room and other reception rooms are where your family gets together and where you host parties. It stands to reason that you want your living space to be as comfortable as possible.
Look at replacing the floors to change the feel of your room, and use either paint or wallpaper to spruce up the walls. Get furniture that goes together and matches your family life and, whatever you do, don’t forget the wall hangings. Rugs are another great way to spruce up your living room.
Bedrooms
The bedrooms are where your family can get more personal with their design choices. If you have children, let them have a say in how to decorate their rooms so that it reflects their interests. This also teaches them a measure of responsibility and individuality.
If you have spare rooms, then consider converting one into a home office. This is useful for work or study, and a dedicated home office is always superior to having to work in a public place.
