For many people, moving is one of the last things they want to do. With a location they already love in or around Phoenix, and neighbors they don’t want to leave, countless people would prefer to simply stay where they are for as many years as possible.
But that doesn’t mean they are happy with their home the way it is. Through renovation projects, it’s possible to breathe new life into a house without having to pack up a single box and uproot your family. Let’s go over some of the popular types of home renovation projects you might want to consider in the months and years ahead.
Kitchen Remodeling
Far and away, this is the most popular type of home renovation project in Phoenix and throughout the rest of the country. There is simply no better way to breathe new life into a home than to update and improve the kitchen. This is a room that you likely use each and every day, and making it look and function better is something that you will be able to appreciate consistently for as long as you live in the home.
It should be noted that not every kitchen remodeling project needs to be a complete teardown of the existing space. You might not want to spend the time and money required to do such a huge job, and that’s just fine. Getting a similar effect for a smaller investment is possible by strategically replacing certain elements while leaving the rest alone. For example, maybe you like your counters and cabinets, but would like to update the look by replacing the backsplash and maybe a couple of the appliances. That would be a nice project to take on without the commitment of a larger endeavor.
Finishing a Basement
Another popular project is finishing an existing basement space to make it useful for day-to-day living. If you have an unfinished basement that is currently used for storage and little else, finishing it properly and making it an extension of the rest of the house can suddenly make your home feel much larger. The potential uses for that basement space are nearly endless, including as a home office, gym, theater room, and much more. Although basements are not commonly seen in homes in the Phoenix area, this could be a great project if you happen to own a home that has one.
Bathroom Remodeling
Along with kitchens, bathrooms are another type of room that is commonly targeted during a remodel. You might have a half-bath near your living area that could use some attention, or you might want to totally redo your master bathroom to bring it up to a level that you have always imagined it reaching. Whatever the case, it’s important to work with a good contractor for a bathroom remodel to make sure the work is done correctly and the new space will work for you for years to come.
