Avoid These 8 Costly Mistakes! 🚫

When it comes to increasing the value of your Grantham home, not all upgrades are created equal! Before you dive into a renovation, consider these 8 common home improvement blunders:

·      Removing a Bedroom: This is a big one. Decreasing your bedroom count can slash up to a sixth of your Bolton home’s value! 🛌

·      Converting a Garage: Be very careful what you gain with a room, don’t devalue it by losing a garage. 🚗🅿

·      Media Rooms: They sound glamorous but can be a costly mistake. Few prefer built-in media rooms over practical spaces. 🎬

·      Kitchen Overhauls: Everyone loves a modern kitchen, but personal tastes vary widely. Your brand-new kitchen might end up in a skip and they could reduce what they offer when you come to sell your Bolton home! 🍳

·      Bathroom Makeovers: From the colour to the fixtures, bathrooms are highly personal spaces. Don’t assume your dream bathroom is everyone else’s. 🛁🚿

·      Expensive Wallpaper Choices: Neutral walls are safer than subjective patterns that potential buyers might hate. 🎨
 
·      Laying New Carpet: Flooring choices are diverse, and your new carpet might not be to everyone's liking. 🪣
 
·      Installing Solar Panels: While eco-friendly, the ROI will be disappointing. Think long-term before committing. ☀️


While we all love to add a personal touch to our homes, remember to think twice if you're planning to sell in the foreseeable future.

It's about finding a balance between making your Bolton home a reflection of you and appealing to the broadest audience.
