Ready to revamp your interior?

Inspiration to suit every home, whether modern, traditional or in between

Let’s be honest – we’ve all been sitting in our homes pretty much non-stop for the past year and, for a lot of us, it’s time for a change.

From refreshing the paintwork to fitting new windows and doors, or uplifting worn out carpets and flooring, there’s so much that you can do to give the inside of your property a fresh look. But where to start?

If you feel your home needs a top-to-toe makeover, one of the best things you can do is make some decisions before getting in the experts. This could be setting a budget, deciding what rooms to tackle first or just choosing what style you like best – knowing what you want will help ensure you get the new look of your dreams.

It’s also worthwhile to draw up a list of “needs and wants” and put them in order – the needs are upgrades and changes you have to make due to damage or other issues (such as upgrading windows and doors to make them more energy efficient) and the wants are things you’d like to do but aren’t essential work.

Or perhaps it’s some smaller jobs rather than a total overhaul that’s required. If that’s the case, try and work out the best order to do each part (for example, you don’t want to paint the walls after a new carpet is installed or hang wallpaper before the electrician has done the rewiring). Once you know what you want to do (and the order you’d prefer it done in) you can start looking around. With Covid-19 restrictions still in place, you might need to wait for some jobs to get completed, but you can begin looking for companies who can carry out your work, ask for some quotes and find out what your changes will entail.

When it comes to choosing a tradesperson to do the transformation, don’t be shy about asking questions! A reputable business will work hard to make sure you are comfortable with the work that will take place and that the plans they have are in line with what you want.

They can also steer you in the right direction if you are unsure what materials would be best and let you know what you can do ahead of them arriving to prepare the area (whether it’s moving furniture or lifting rugs). In short, they make your life easier!

So remember, if you want to renew your home’s interiors, make some simple decisions before getting in the experts to bring your ideas to life. Then you can relax and enjoy your new surroundings.
