subject: Home Makeover - Sprucing Up One's Home by:Perlie Denner [print this page] During these tough economic times, home owners are turning to a home makeover rather than buying a new home. It just makes economic sense. A home makeover can certainly spruce up one's home and make it feel as if the homeowner is living in a brand spanking new home. It also gives the homeowner a feel of pride and accomplishment once the home makeover is completed.
There are tons of ways to make the home makeover a dazzle one. One, and most probably the best, way is to look at the home makeovers that can give the most value back to the homeowner. The kitchen, is the top home make over value creator. This is because the woman of the house is actually the one that buys the home that the man finds for her. The kitchen, if nice, neat and new definitely makes a woman's heart aflutter.
Next to kitchen, the big value creator for home makeover are the bathrooms. What would really make the home makeover a splash is to add the right color to the bathrooms.
Home makeovers can be hard. I've been through a lot of home makeovers. They were disruptive, time consuming and yes, it was stressful. This is because I was not able to plan all the undertaking. I know now what to do next time though. Following a number of simple steps to make sure you get the right home make over is the best thing to do.
First step is to look for an expert to help you with your home makeover. If you are not a contractor or handy person, you must be prepared for this, because home makeovers is not something that you can take lightly. The knowledge on how to hang the cabinets and measure lengths is certainly a requirement. You do not want to have a unstable cabinet, don't you?
Now, let's talk about the terrific home makeover projects, the crown moldings. These crown holdings will surely give your home a classy look and the feeling of luxury and upscale quality. They are tough to measure and align perfectly though. This is because the place where the intersection of the two moldings connect at corners is a little tricky. It would be a complete disaster if you didn't align them properly.
You must remember do things when deciding whether to do it yourself home makeover or get an expert for it. Home makeover can surely be a tremendously rewarding project, however it can also be purse, mind and patience taxing.
