One of the most significant investments of your life is usually your home. Like anything worth buying, your home is essential to care for and maintain. One of the best ways to do so is home improvement or remodeling.
Why Remodel
Currently, a meager inventory of homes is on the market, making many homeowners decide to remodel certain areas of their homes rather than buy new ones. Without many other choices, homeowners may not be able to find what they are looking for elsewhere.
Each year, house stock ages, and naturally, things around your home need updating. Home remodeling may be essential, whether wear-and-tear, outdated trends, aesthetic reasons, or necessity.
Additionally, as time passes, ideally, so does your home equity. The thought of home remodeling may not seem like an easy one to wrap your head around. Still, remodeling usually involves less work, money, and time than moving outright.
Bathroom And Kitchen Remodeling
The two most popular home remodels are bathrooms, which account for 65% of all remodels, and kitchen remodels, which account for 61%. These numbers are not surprising since these two spaces are essential. Not only are they needed daily, they get more use than most other areas of the home.
Every family member uses the bathroom every day. So many personal care tasks happen in this room. But aside from the essentials, it is a place to relax. Cracked tile, small vanities, tacky lighting, and uncomfortable layouts are just a few reasons to remodel. This room is usually smaller, easier to remodel quickly, and can greatly impact daily activities.
Doesn’t everyone end up in the kitchen whenever you have a party? In addition to being a place to prepare food, it’s a natural gathering space. Functional kitchen equipment is crucial, but with so much time spent here, we also like it to look lovely and tasteful. This is why when cabinets or surfaces become worn down or outdated, we notice them more and need to remodel them.
Other Popular Home Remodeling
In addition to the bathroom or kitchen, there are other reasonably popular home remodeling projects that people like to do.
Whole-house remodels account for 50% of all remodels. This may be the best option when a house is too old or too neglected. We can remodel the entire home and all its different areas.
23% of people report bathroom additions. These are like bathroom remodels, but instead of fixing what you have, you can expand if there is room and proper plumbing placement.
Window and door replacement is 22% of all repairs. Over time, windows and doors can start to leak air, harming the effectiveness of the air conditioning or heat.
Decks account for 20% of home remodeling, and enclosing or adding a porch also accounts for 20%. Adding more real estate to your home through a deck or patio increases its value and livable space.
