7 Most Valuable Home Improvements

Last Updated on 3 years ago by Nicky Johnson

Every home improvement you make, even when it is not your purpose, increases your home’s worth. It is both a blessing and a curse. On the one hand, by making some upgrades, you can quickly improve your house’s value. On the other hand, it means that you should always consider what home improvement projects will give you the most bang for your buck.

That being said, choosing the right renovation ideas can be tricky. For this reason, we have prepared a list of the most valuable home improvements you can use to create a house of your dreams. Here are the key things you need to consider.

Upgrade the Kitchen

A kitchen upgrade is one of the most significant home improvements that you can implement without spending a fortune on modernizing it. However, if your kitchen contains outdated features and appliances, it might be a better solution to renovate it completely. On the contrary, if there is just some minor damage, then fixing it and doing some cosmetic repairs will be enough.

One of the most beneficial approaches to a thorough renovation is getting professional advice, when needed. If you don’t know where to start or what needs to be done necessarily, consider consulting a kitchen remodeling specialist (here you can read about the benefits of a kitchen remodeling franchise) timely.

Rework the Walls

Repairing and changing the color of the walls in the entire house may seem like a big deal, but, in fact, it is an approachable task you can complete on your own. Indeed, it will take quite a big chunk of time, but it has its advantages anyway. First, you will have to declutter the entire place, which is always a plus. Secondly, repainting walls will allow you to make your house look entirely new.

 

Besides, you don’t have to do it yourself, as there are many contractor services ready to help you out. Still, numerous YouTube tutorials on removing old wallpapers and preparing walls to paint them properly will come in handy if you decide on a DIY reworking.

Change the Flooring

Choosing a proper flooring material, considering your needs and the individual purpose of every room, is key to creating beautiful and ergonomic spaces. Consider adding hardwood flooring wherever it is suitable, as it is an excellent solution for increasing your house’s resale value.

Despite that wood flooring cost more than other flooring materials, they are a better and cost-effective solution in the long run. They are much more durable and bring a lot of style to the rooms’ overall appearances, which means you will not have to replace them soon.

Add Another Room or Two

Adding additional rooms increases the worth of your house immediately, but you should take this step wisely. First, you have to determine if there is enough space to allocate for another room. Otherwise, it will be more efficient to free up space in already existing rooms.

Secondly, when deciding which room to add, consider your family’s primary needs and wants. For example, if you have two or more kids living at home, you might want to invest in a new bathroom or expand your kitchen space. If you do not need much space within the house, you can invest in a workroom or a shed, which will provide you with additional storage space, and increase your home’s value.

Make the Most Out of Your Attic Space

Most people do not use attics even as storage space, so it is worth reconsidering if you need yours at all, and maybe find a new purpose for it. For example, you can quickly turn your attic into extra living space, or declutter this place and make a home office or gym there.

Replace Your Windows

Most homeowners overlook their windows when they think about home improvement ideas. Besides, replacing your windows is one of the best things you can do to remodel your house quickly.

Windows have a significant impact on the indoor temperature throughout the year, which with improper installation will also affect your energy bills. Make sure to check this issue with a specialist and fix the problem, if there is one.

Add Some Style

One of the most cost-effective solutions that will still affect your home value is completing several small home improvement projects at once.

Those projects may include replacing the old lighting fixtures with modern ones, replacing the worn carpets with laminate flooring, rearranging storage spaces where it’s needed the most (like kitchen, garage, laundry room), and anything else you deem necessary to fix in the house.

The Bottom Line

Before you embark on any major renovation project, it is crucial to do your research and study the various home improvement ideas to determine which solutions will most benefit your house. The next step is to make a plan to help you complete all of your home projects gradually and avoid unexpected expenses.

Do not hesitate to seek advice from professional contractors and present your ideas to a designer who can help you determine the ideas that will cover your family’s needs and work best for the house’s value. Remember that the only thing you should be guided by is your current needs.
