As the summer holiday season fades and the children return to school, we move towards autumn with its cooler weather and darker nights.  Traditionally at this time of year we begin to focus on planning home improvements to prepare our homes for winter.

If you are looking for some inspiration, here are five ideas for home improvement projects:

Get cosy and warm – Autumn is the perfect time to upgrade old window frames with energy efficient double or triple-glazed windows. There is so much choice – frames can be wooden uPVC or aluminium and there are designs to suit all types of houses whether modern or traditional style.

A living room or lounge will feel more comfortable and cosy with a living fire as a focal point. Log burners are ‘on trend’ and are very practical, providing a quick and easy update to any room.

Make a statement – By improving the entrance to your home you instantly increase your property’s kerb side appeal. Replacing your front is a quick and effective way of updating your home plus a new door can also provide higher security and greater energy efficiency.

Pots of colour – Decorating a room to reflect your taste and personality can transform a bedroom into a tranquil haven in which to relax, or a living room into a vibrant space where the family can gather. There are so many colours to choose from, so get creative.

Recycle old furniture – Many of us will have old, damaged, dreary looking pieces of furniture but with a little TLC they can be transformed and given a new lease of life. Go online to look for advice and information on different techniques to create a look that suits your style.

Create a space – If you have a growing family and in need of more space then adding an extra room maybe the project for you. Conservatories have long been a popular way of gaining more space but adding an orangery is ‘on trend’ at the moment. Adding extra space which can be tailored to your individual requirements will provide many benefits for the whole family.
