Does your house not feel quite like your ideal home? There’s no need to daydream about possibilities on Zillow, it’s time to upgrade your home. Renovating your house is an investment, and it will leave you satisfied! At TruBlue Roofing and Remodeling, we understand the importance of creating a living space that truly feels like your own. If you’re looking for inspiration or want to meet a team who can do it all, read about these 7 upgrades that can transform your current house into the dream home you’ve always wanted.
1. Kitchen Remodel
The kitchen can be the one thing holding you back from enjoying your home to its maximum potential. It’s where we cook, gather, and or even entertain. If your kitchen feels outdated or cramped, a remodel can make a world of difference. Consider these upgrades:
- New countertops: Granite, quartz, or marble can instantly elevate the look of your kitchen.
- Updated cabinetry: Refacing or replacing cabinets can provide more storage and a fresh aesthetic.
- Modern appliances: Stainless steel appliances not only look sleek but also offer improved functionality.
- Backsplash: A stylish backsplash can add personality and protect your walls.
- Lighting: Pendant lights, under-cabinet lighting, and recessed lighting can brighten up the space and create a welcoming atmosphere.
2. Open Concept Creation
Many older homes, and even some newer ones, have closed-off floor plans which can make them feel smaller and less inviting. Creating an open concept can transform your living space and improve the flow of your home.
- Removing walls: Taking down non-load-bearing walls can open up the space and create a more connected feel.
- Reconfiguring layouts: Rearranging furniture and creating distinct zones can define areas within the open concept.
- Improving sightlines: Ensuring clear views between rooms can enhance the sense of spaciousness.
3. Bath Remodel
The bathroom remodel can be the most time consuming and tedious process of them all, especially if you try to go at it on your own. Bad lighting, unappealing tiles, leaking faucets, bad tubs and showers, all of these things can make your bathroom far from relaxing when you need it to be.
- New fixtures: Replacing faucets, showerheads, and toilets can give your bathroom a modern look.
- Tiling: Updating the tile in your shower, floor, or walls can significantly impact the overall aesthetic.
- Vanity and countertops: A new vanity and countertop can provide more storage and style.
- Lighting: Good lighting is essential in a bathroom. Consider adding vanity lights, recessed lighting, or even a chandelier.
- Walk-in shower: If space allows, a walk-in shower can create a luxurious and accessible bathroom experience.
4. Decks and Porch Conversions
So far you’ve been considering inside renovations, but what about the outside? Enhancing your outdoor living space can greatly increase your enjoyment of your home. A well-designed deck or patio can provide the perfect space for outdoor entertaining or relaxation.
- Screened porch: Converting an existing porch into a screened porch can allow you to enjoy the outdoors without the annoyance of bugs.
- Outdoor kitchen: Adding an outdoor kitchen can make your backyard the ultimate entertainment space.
- Pergolas and gazebos: These structures can provide shade and create a focal point in your yard.
5. Siding Replacement
So remodeling for enjoyment is important, but renovating for your home’s integrity is also a priority. Your siding not only affects its appearance but also its protection from the weather.
- Increase energy efficiency: Insulated siding can help regulate your home’s temperature and reduce energy costs.
- Protect against weather damage: Durable siding can shield your home from rain, wind, and sun.
6. Exterior Paint
Colors impact our moods, and having your least favorite one on the outside of your house can make everyday a little more stressful. A fresh coat of paint can do wonders for your home’s exterior. Select colors that enhance the architectural features of your house and you’ll watch your home transform almost instantly.
- Improve curb appeal: New paint can instantly refresh the look of your home.
- Overall protection of siding and trim: A quality paint job and caulking are crucial in the overall protection against wood rot to siding and trim.
7. Drywall and Trim Replacement
Back to the inside of the home. Drywall and trim are often-overlooked details can greatly impact the overall look and feel of your home’s interior:
- Repair or replace damaged drywall: Fix any cracks, holes, or water damage to create a smooth, flawless surface.
- Upgrade trim: Replacing outdated baseboards, door frames, and crown molding can add character and sophistication.
- Add decorative trim: Consider adding wainscoting, chair rails, or other decorative elements to enhance your home’s style.
