Clear‌ ‌Out‌ ‌the‌ ‌Clutter‌

Everyone possesses an item they have held onto for years due to sentimental reasons. Perhaps it is an ugly ornament gifted from a favorite aunt, or a bag full of your grown daughter’s baby toys. Whatever it is for you, try to keep sentimentality to a minimum and clear out the clutter. It may be difficult, especially if you have lived in your home for many years, but root through each room and set aside everything you do not need. Create a pile that can go in the garbage and one that can be recycled or given away. Although you may not need your old knick-knacks anymore, someone else might have a use for them. As the saying goes, one person’s trash is another person’s treasure.

Clean,‌ ‌Clean‌ ‌Clean‌

Once you have decluttered every room in the property, the next thing you should do is perform a deep clean. Although cleaning the home may be on your list of weekly tasks, it can be easy to let it slip. Even if you do perform a weekly ‘surface’ clean, it is good practice to clean a home from top to bottom at least once a year. This includes a thorough carpet clean to get rid of the tracked-in stains and dirt, wiping down the windows and dusting your vents. A clean home is a healthier environment to spend your days. Cleaning can also help you identify areas in the home that are showing general wear and tear and may need some TLC.

Replace Your Roof

A leaky roof can result in mold, mildew and it can also lead to water damage. Furthermore, a sagging roof is a sign of severe water damage and it can compromise the structural integrity of your home. If your roof is showing signs of damage, it may be time to call in a professional. Not only is a roof replacement a fantastic return on investment in the long run, it can also prevent existing damage from getting more serious.

Build a New Bathroom

A bathroom remodel is hardly a cost-effective option, but it is an effective way to completely refresh your home. A brand new, fully furnished bathroom may not come cheap, but a job well done can last you years. If you only want to make a few changes then retiling the bathroom floor can make a massive difference. Besides the floor, replacing the fittings can also modernize the room. If you are after an inexpensive fix, then replace the old fixtures with new ones. Worn-down faucets and scratched shower heads can make your bathroom look old and tired. Simply replacing, or repainting, them can offer your bathroom a whole new look.
