3 minor improvements to add value to your property

3 minor improvements to add value to your property

Homeowners looking to stay put and improve their property this year with easy and affordable changes can follow advice from the home improvement specialists at Stormclad.

From changing up interiors with easy hacks and enhancing existing features to add longevity, there is a range of ways you can add quality back into your home.

Finance director at Stormclad, John Evans, says: “With the cost of living crisis and the housing market facing uncertainty, UK homebuyers are increasingly looking to stay put in their homes and improve while the economy regulates.

New windows

Improve the amount of natural light in your property and the insulation with a new set of windows that will make a difference both inside and outside the house. Aluminium windows have a long life span, high-energy efficiency, and solid security, meaning that while it is an investment, many benefits will serve you well for years to come. Timber windows are also highly secure and can be personalised to either softwood or hardwood to suit your aesthetic. Plus, UPVC windows are cost-effective and excellent at stopping drafts from entering the home.

New doors

Changing the entrance to your property is a great way to add style to your exterior while adding kerb appeal. Choosing the suitable material for your budget and needs is essential when doing this.  For example, UPVC doors are low-maintenance and inexpensive, making them ideal choices for saving. Meanwhile, while timber doors are an initial investment, they offer a premium aesthetic and extra insulation for the home. A new colour can also go a long way – navy blues, greys and blacks all look smart on doors while being effortless to maintain.

Fresh paint                                                                      

It sounds simple, but a new lick of paint can change a room’s atmosphere. Think about how you want to feel in each room – motivated, relaxed, happy – and apply this to the colours you choose to paint with. Bold shades like on-trend magenta and deep green can add warmth and depth, while neutrals like white and light brown can be tasteful and calming. If you decide to go for a bold tone, don’t go all in immediately in case you change your mind quickly – add pops of the colour with soft furnishings or even go for a statement wall.
