The new year brings a glow of fresh start for the days ahead. While it can be a downer because of the cold winter weather, it’s a great time to give your home some TLC and craft your home improvement plans. These are just some of the ways to get the year off to a good start.
Set goals. If you plan to save up for a renovation, get some inspiration and start planning. Seeing the big picture can help you keep an eye on the prize.
Get cozy. As you get back to your usual routine, don’t forget to keep yourself and the whole house warm. Adding extra candles, layers of rugs, cozy blankets and throws, and lighting up the fireplace are surefire ways to make a space a light-hearted spot.
Sort out Christmas decorations. As you keep your holiday decorations, be sure to stack them in a box. Doing this now can save you tons of headache next year.
Install flood alarms. Even minor flood can be flat out frustrating. Installing sensors in some flood-prone areas can alert you before it becomes a disaster.
Sanitize hard surfaces. Now that the cold and flu season is upon us, tables and countertops should be kept clean and sanitized regularly. Don’t miss out faucets, door knobs, and other sneakier surfaces to keep illness at bay.
Look for danger signs. Inspect your home after every storm and check for leaks and any damages to your roof and siding.
Out with the old, in with the new. Take some time to clean up your pantry and overstuffed closet and drawers. Go one step further by replacing old appliances with energy-efficient products.
