Home Renovations To Complete Before Move In

[/vc_column_text][gem_divider margin_top="27"][vc_column_text]So, you finally found your ideal home and cannot wait to move in as soon as possible. I completely understand your eagerness, but hold your horses for a moment and ask yourself whether the space reflects your personality, everyday needs, and lifestyle.  If the answer is no, you might want to roll up your sleeves. Repairing and renovating the new home goes a long way— you have a chance to put your mind at ease and prevent ghosts of the past from haunting you. Here are some must-consider improvement projects.[/vc_column_text][gem_divider margin_top="74"][/vc_column][vc_column width="1/2" css=".vc_custom_1533666656831{background-image: url(http://imagineerremodeling.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/couple-home-house-1288482.jpg?id=25671) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row equal_height="yes" css=".vc_custom_1457706868588{margin-right: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;}"][vc_column width="1/2" css=".vc_custom_1533666151911{padding-top: 400px !important;background-image: url(http://imagineerremodeling.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/1.jpg?id=25663) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}"][/vc_column][vc_column width="1/2" css=".vc_custom_1492720050089{padding-top: 75px !important;padding-right: 40px !important;padding-left: 40px !important;}"][gem_divider margin_top="43"][vc_column_text]

Electricity and plumbing

[/vc_column_text][gem_divider margin_top="27"][vc_column_text]It goes without saying that crucial home systems must work like a charm. It is quite tedious and expensive to tear down walls and dismantle equipment once you settle in. So, carry out a thorough inspection and identify potential issues and flaws, such as leaks, overheating and short circuits. Likewise, keep your eyes peeled for old valves and rusty pipes. Ponder boosting the capacity of both systems in order to increase their cost-effectiveness and performance.[/vc_column_text][gem_divider margin_top="74"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row equal_height="yes" css=".vc_custom_1457706868588{margin-right: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;}"][vc_column width="1/2" css=".vc_custom_1457706737265{padding-right: 40px !important;padding-left: 40px !important;background-color: #f5f7f6 !important;}"][gem_divider margin_top="43"][vc_column_text]

Improve home security

[/vc_column_text][gem_divider margin_top="27"][vc_column_text]Home security is never to be overlooked. Nowadays, you have a variety of ways at your disposal to thwart burglars, thieves, and other wrong-doers. Think in terms of surveillance cameras, alarm systems, shutters, security doors, motion sensor lights, and smart locks. Bear in mind that forced entry and trespassing can be stopped by creating an impression someone is at home at all times. Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. Make sure your abode is safe for all inhabitants.[/vc_column_text][gem_divider margin_top="74"][/vc_column][vc_column width="1/2" css=".vc_custom_1533666201899{padding-top: 400px !important;background-image: url(http://imagineerremodeling.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/2.jpg?id=25664) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row equal_height="yes" css=".vc_custom_1457706868588{margin-right: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;}"][vc_column width="1/2" css=".vc_custom_1533666240959{padding-top: 400px !important;background-image: url(http://imagineerremodeling.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/3.jpg?id=25665) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}"][/vc_column][vc_column width="1/2" css=".vc_custom_1492720050089{padding-top: 75px !important;padding-right: 40px !important;padding-left: 40px !important;}"][gem_divider margin_top="43"][vc_column_text]

Update appliances and devices

[/vc_column_text][gem_divider margin_top="27"][vc_column_text]It is a good idea to have all appliances and devices ready before you make a move. Just for your kitchen, you will need a multitude of them – from a coffee machine to the refrigerator. They also require adequate space and enough outlets, so plan this aspect thoroughly, too. Finally, it is important to transport them safely to your new home. Hiring trusted moving pros, such as the guys behind City Removalist, who offer fast relocation without extra charges and fees, is always a good idea.[/vc_column_text][gem_divider margin_top="74"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row equal_height="yes" css=".vc_custom_1457706868588{margin-right: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;}"][vc_column width="1/2" css=".vc_custom_1457706737265{padding-right: 40px !important;padding-left: 40px !important;background-color: #f5f7f6 !important;}"][gem_divider margin_top="43"][vc_column_text]

Bolster the insulation

[/vc_column_text][gem_divider margin_top="27"][vc_column_text]It goes without saying that solid home insulation is paramount, allowing you to ramp up energy efficiency, trim utility bills, and withstand adverse weather conditions. Therefore, examine the condition of the current envelope and evaluate its R-value (material’s resistance to conductive heat flow). Pay special attention to the weakest links such as windows— weather-strip them or invest in double glazed products. Furthermore, repair any damaged parts of the roof and see if the front door needs to be upgraded in order to minimize an unwanted temperature loss.[/vc_column_text][gem_divider margin_top="74"][/vc_column][vc_column width="1/2" css=".vc_custom_1533666298192{padding-top: 400px !important;background-image: url(http://imagineerremodeling.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/4.jpg?id=25666) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row equal_height="yes" css=".vc_custom_1457706868588{margin-right: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;}"][vc_column width="1/2" css=".vc_custom_1533666339620{padding-top: 400px !important;background-image: url(http://imagineerremodeling.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/5.jpg?id=25667) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}"][/vc_column][vc_column width="1/2" css=".vc_custom_1492720050089{padding-top: 75px !important;padding-right: 40px !important;padding-left: 40px !important;}"][gem_divider margin_top="43"][vc_column_text]

Spruce up the bathroom

[/vc_column_text][gem_divider margin_top="27"][vc_column_text]Bathroom renovation is associated with some of the highest ROI in the area of home improvement. Besides that, your private sanctuary is the place where you can relax and tend to your needs. There is no need to break the bank, though, so consider cost-effective projects first. Remove the mold, install new, low-flow shower heads, add potted plants, replace outdated light bulbs, and add color with accessories like mats, curtains, and towels.[/vc_column_text][gem_divider margin_top="74"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row equal_height="yes" css=".vc_custom_1457706868588{margin-right: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;}"][vc_column width="1/2" css=".vc_custom_1457706737265{padding-right: 40px !important;padding-left: 40px !important;background-color: #f5f7f6 !important;}"][gem_divider margin_top="43"][vc_column_text]

Apply a fresh coat of paint

[/vc_column_text][gem_divider margin_top="27"][vc_column_text]Applying a new coat of wall and ceiling paint is an affordable update that makes a big difference in terms of visual appeal. It sets the mood and atmosphere for the whole home. You can go for a color that reflects your personality, but I would refrain from tones that are too bold and bright. And before you grab a paintbrush, remember to prep the surface. Do away with mold and moisture. Repair the cracks and flatten any roughness you find. Finally, feel free to infuse the walls with patterns with the help of wallpapers.[/vc_column_text][gem_divider margin_top="74"][/vc_column][vc_column width="1/2" css=".vc_custom_1533666416971{padding-top: 400px !important;background-image: url(http://imagineerremodeling.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/6.jpg?id=25668) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row equal_height="yes" css=".vc_custom_1457706868588{margin-right: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;}"][vc_column width="1/2" css=".vc_custom_1533666492613{padding-top: 400px !important;background-image: url(http://imagineerremodeling.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/featured.jpg?id=25669) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}"][/vc_column][vc_column width="1/2" css=".vc_custom_1492720050089{padding-top: 75px !important;padding-right: 40px !important;padding-left: 40px !important;}"][gem_divider margin_top="43"][vc_column_text]

Play it smart

[/vc_column_text][gem_divider margin_top="27"][vc_column_text]Renovating the new home may seem like a time-consuming and costly endeavour at first. Be that as it may, you stand to benefit a lot form this upfront investment. Among other things, you get an opportunity to make your life comfortable and fuss-free. So, it is time to repair, upgrade, secure, and beautify the space. Add personal touches, confirm that everything is in working order, and put together a highly-functional environment. Avoid unforeseen problems and loads of future headaches: live happily and thrive for years to come.[/vc_column_text][gem_divider margin_top="74"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row content_placement="middle"][vc_column css=".vc_custom_1501268370800{background-color: #2bb673 !important;}"][gem_textbox content_background_color="" padding_top="55" padding_bottom="55" padding_left="-10" border_color="#ffffff" border_width="6px"][vc_row_inner content_placement="middle"][vc_column_inner offset="vc_col-lg-8 vc_col-md-6"][vc_column_text css_animation="top-to-bottom" css=".vc_custom_1501268266263{padding-top: 25px !important;}"]
