Don't Move - Improve: The Benefits Of Home Improvements

Looking to move house? Need a little more space now you can hear little pitter-patter of feet looming?

There's no doubt about it; there's never been a more difficult time to move house. A recent crash in the property market has led to negative equity for many disgruntled homeowners who have now found themselves out of pocket and searching for an answer.

So what exactly can you do to escape the humdrum of being locked into a house that just doesn't meet your needs anymore?

Well, you can always move to another property that is bigger. But then you run the risk of loosing out on a lot of cash that was, at one time, locked away in your house.

A second option is to put your life on hold until market conditions improve. But then, who know how long that will take. You could be old and grey before your house becomes worth more money again.

No. The best option by far is to look at serious home improvements that will not only add that much-needed space to your property, but are sure increase the value of the property dramatically. The benefits here are that you can not only enjoy a larger living space and a better quality of life, but you can also rest safe in the knowledge that if and when you do decide to sell, you will be making a lot more money.

So what are the best ways of increasing the value of your property through home improvements?

An extension is always the best way of adding value, and the most cost-effective way of adding space to a property is either by adding a conservatory or orangery.

Conservatories work well on almost every type of property and modern technology such as heat-resistant glass means that they can maintain a consistent temperature all year round, without getting too cold in the winter or too hot in the summer.

If your property is a little more bespoke, a timber-framed orangery could be a better option. Originally conceived as a place to keep tropical plants protected from the harsh British winter, orangeries are now a place to promenade in true style. Large glass panels, combined with a solid timber frame and a concrete base make for incredible insulation against the elements and are becoming increasingly popular.

Prices are lower than you'd think and with a number of specialist companies running various special offers on new installations, you can save even more money on your home improvements.
