Increase the Value of Your Home


Little Things Make a Big Difference

Not all home improvement projects need to be a significant investment of time and resources. No matter how old your home is, a few little updates can result in a new and improved appearance as well as increase your home's value.

Michael Blanchard Handyman Services can help you update your home with a few projects that make a huge impact for a small budget:

1. Check out the overhead lighting fixtures around the house. Many styles and options are available to put the room in a new light. Old, worn-out ceiling fans can be replaced with newer, more efficient models.

2. Interior design elements such as crown molding, trim, or a chair rail can add decorative accents to a room with a minimal amount of effort and investment. Small shelves can provide space to display items and complement the décor in the rest of the room.

3. Replacing the sink or faucet can provide a completely new look for a bathroom. Even simple changes like a new showerhead or cabinet hardware can give you a sense of satisfaction.

4. The outside of your home may need some attention. A new front door or storm door can increase energy efficiency and provide an upgraded look. Replacement windows are a more expensive consideration, but many products can offer significant energy savings to counter-balance the cost.

5. Organizing your home maximizes space and simplifies your life.  Storage spaces can always benefit from a few design enhancements. Updating kitchen cabinets, customizing closets, building toy storage trunks/baskets and maximizing garage spaces are just a few ways you can organize your home to make life easier and give you more time to spend on the important things in life.

6.  Add a little color to your life. There is nothing that transforms a home more than color. For the exterior, new paint or siding will give your home massive curb appeal.  Paint, wallpaper and tiling on the interior not only changes the look of your home, but your mood as well - from calm and relaxing to vibrant and energetic.
