Remodeling your home is a big deal. It can be a massive undertaking where you overhaul the whole thing or keep it small with a single room. No matter how big or small your project is, it’s going to take a lot of work. At Urban Enterprise Construction, we have three signs for you to look out for that say it’s time for a home remodeling in Orlando.
Your home feels outdated
Older homes often come with a certain charm. There’s obviously a history there, and you can sometimes get a little bit more yard to go with it. However, you might start to feel that the floor plan is outdated. Things like too many walls, cabinets in odd places, or narrow hallways are common in older homes. Even old light fixtures will make your home feel decades overdue for an update.
You can update your home with a remodel by taking out a couple of walls and opening up your living spaces. You can also put in new cabinets, rearrange the kitchen a little bit, and update the light fixtures. You have the option to make small changes here and there or remodel entire sections of your home to update it and bring it into the 21st century.
Your floors need to be replaced
Your floors have taken a beating over the years. No other part of your home takes as much punishment as your floors from kids and pets running and jumping around to everyday foot traffic. You’ll eventually start to notice your vinyl flooring is starting to wear out and peel, tiles are cracking and detaching, or wood panels are starting to warp. Even if the flooring itself appears to be in good condition, soft spots here and there could be a sign of damage to the sub-flooring, which cause bigger problems if left unaddressed.
The need to replace your flooring is a strong indicator that you could use a home remodeling. You can have your floors reinforced then update your flooring by replacing linoleum with wood or tile floors.
Your home feels crowded or empty
An overcrowded home can make you feel claustrophobic and uncomfortable every day. While you might not have felt crowded when you first moved into your home, you’re going to grow into your home as your family grows and you buy more things to fill the space. Rather than moving, you can make changes to open up the floorplan of your home. You’ll find that it feels less crowded and brighter as there’s more space for light to fill the rooms in your living spaces.
In contrast to feeling crowded, a home can start to feel empty as your kids move out. You have rooms that are unoccupied, and it’s not unusual for them to turn into a catch-all. Rather than letting things accumulate, make an empty room functional. Perform a remodel to turn empty rooms into a hobby room equipped for art or sewing, build a home gym, or anything else you can think of. Make unused space usable again with home remodeling.
