Renovating a home is no walk in the park. Along with the cost, you often have to deal with planning permission, and run the risk of coming across problems such as asbestos and structural issues. Not to mention the fact that you’re mostly living on a building site while the work is being completed- noise, mess and the general hassle that comes from workmen coming and going. However, renovating your home can be well worth it. It makes it more valuable and also more practical too. Our needs can change over the years, and a home that once seemed perfect can quickly feel small and cramped when a few kids and pets come along. Maybe you have a hobby or have started working from home and need the extra room? Either way, here are just a few home renovations that are well worth the effort.

Summer can be a beautiful time if you prefer warmer weather. It is also often the season when you can find it difficult not get work done and not be distracted. If you work from home, the sun streaming in and the call of your garden can make you want to abandon your work and go outside. Sometimes, you might be able to get your work done outdoors, but often that just means more distractions. To make it a little easier and pleasant to work at home during the summer, giving your home office a bit of a revamp could be what's needed. How about some of these ways to prepare your office for summer?

Let’s face it: your bathroom is one of the most important rooms in your house. It’s one of the most regularly used, and it needs to suit exactly what your family’s needs are. Here are some tips to help...

Consider Your Needs
First of all, think about what exactly your bathroom needs to be. If it’s a family bathroom that your kids will use, you may need a bath so that they - and possibly even your dog - can be bathed quickly. You may need plenty of storage for sheets and towels, or the space to put up a drying rack when the weather’s particularly bad outside and your dryer stops working. Thinking about what you need your bathroom to will help you work out both what you need to install and how much it will cost.
