Everyone has heard the phase “An Englishman’s home is his castle”, it’s a well know phase that has been around for hundreds of years, the phase literally means that us British are a very house proud nation and we spend hundreds if not thousands of pounds every single year on new decoration, renewals and repairs for our homes, over the years things have changed a great deal, because in the past simply decorating your home, buying new carpets and furniture was the most that many British house proud families did, we all remember our parents buying that new three piece suite or new carpet ready to impress their extended families at Christmas and social events such as weddings, christenings and even funerals , but in recent years home improvements have taken over home decoration, with windows, doors, driveways and conservatories being high on many peoples lists of “improvements to do to your home”.

 

New technologies and better manufacturing techniques has seen conservatories prices plummet, putting these fantastic additional rooms within reach of most, if not all UK homeowners and with the internet now allowing us to easily get multiple online conservatory quote’s no one is in danger of being taken in by a crooked door to door conservatory salesman and ending up paying over the odds. The recent increase in home improvement companies offering DIY Conservatories now means that people who enjoy a little “Do It Yourself” can save even more money and get their dream conservatory delivered in kit form for just a couple of thousand pound which is probably the same amount as people used to spend on decoration and new furniture.

Another now popular and inexpensive home improvement is driveway replacement, driveway renewal has become more popular in the UK in recent years due to another new technology with is imprinted concrete, Imprinted Concrete Driveways are less expensive than block paving or other materials are lower maintenance, longer lasting and come in a large range of different styles and colours, with some companies allowing you to even create your own, the results are simply breathtaking and finding images on the internet of imprinted concrete driveways is very easy and can even give you ideas of styles, patterns and colours and of course how beautiful they look. It’s versatility means that Imprinted concrete can easily be used for paths, patios and hard to reach areas such as under bay windows and around drainage covers and gate posts.

Whilst on the topic of external home improvements lets not forget the stunning splendour of a beautiful and professionally landscaped garden, although no rear garden is complete, landscaped or not; without well maintained fencing, an area many people forget about and because of this neglect they end up with broken, rotten fencing that lets down their home and becomes an eyesore to both visitors and neighbours. The number one choice for fencing in the United Kingdom is still timber as nothing can match the beauty and the relatively low cost of wooden fencing, but there is a big difference between cheap, budget fencing that can be bought from most DIY chains and handmade, solid, weatherproofed fencing that is manufactured, supplied and usually fitted free by professional fencing companies. Good quality vertical boarded fencing, if fitted correctly and treated with a good quality preservative, (before manufacture) can stay looking good and last for many years.

In summary, there are many internal and external home improvements that can be done to your home, many of them cost a lot less than people think and can not only make your home look beautiful and well maintained but can increase it’s value also.
