Increase House Value - September 16, 2022 - Pasadena, Los Angeles, CA - Let’s be real here. Nobody in California has the same budget when it comes to home remodeling projects. Whether you’re in Los Angeles or Pasadena, help from a handyman can actually save you a lot of wasted time and money. If your DIY attempt fails because you didn’t know how to waterproof your shower, you just lowered the value of your home and now have the surprise cost of re-doing the walls.
Enlist the help of Handyman Connection of Pasadena for any of these multi-budget friendly ideas that can add more money into your pocket if you decide to sell your home one day.
Room Remodeling
Kitchen or bathroom remodeling are the perfect rooms to focus on. Think about when you first went to do a walk-through of your house before you bought it. We all did it - we opened up the drawers and cabinets, making small talk about the storage space. A handyman can help you to gut out old, thick cabinets and replace them with stronger, thinner wood to increase the storage space, literally and visually. The amount of storage is actually one of the best selling points for home buyers.
You don’t have to remodel the entire kitchen all at once. Sometimes all you need is better cabinets or a new toilet. Focus on the things that are used every day by everyone.
Update Your Windows
Don’t forget about the windows! If your house isn’t new, that cool air from inside your home could be escaping through old windows that aren’t completely sealed like newer designs. Another great selling point that adds value to your home is having windows that save you money on your electricity bill.
Ditch the Carpet
When you were a kid you probably loved rolling around on the carpet with a pet or some toys. As nostalgic as shag is, it’s just not practical. Carpet collects dirt, bugs, and stains. With a concern for cleanliness, a hard surfaced floor is easier to maintain and more sellable.
Your material choices for a new floor range in cost, so there’s plenty of options that can fit into any budget.
Fresh Coat of Paint
Never underestimate the power of new paint. This applies to any part of your house - the exterior, the inside walls, and the ceiling. If you have a large area to paint or simply don’t know what you’re doing, Handyman Connection of Pasadena can ensure that your money is well spent when your house looks brand new with a professional, quality paint job.
Get a Fence
Privacy is important for a lot of people, especially the privacy of your home. This is where a family can find sanctuary from everything crazy going on in the world. Fencing off a backyard from neighbors is a noteworthy selling point because you’re pretty much adding an extra room onto the house that just so happens to be open to the outdoors. Getting a great looking fence installed can also add a layer of protection around the home. There are many different styles and materials for fences that a professional handyman can help you decide on, install, and maintain.
