Home Improvement Inspiration That Won't Strip Your Sanity
There is always room for home improvement, regardless of your situation. Even the simplest of
projects can significantly increase your home's value. This article will give you some great
suggestions on how you can best improve your home.
Get a new porch light that features a motion sensor in order to help reduce your electric bill. You
can manually turn the light on and adjust sensitivity most of the time.
If your door is still squeaky after trying every imaginable method to fix it, you might want to buy a
new hinge. Most hardware stores sell them. All you have to do is take out your hinge and then attach
the sides to your door and wall. Then, just line up the hinge pieces and place in the pins.
If your wall has small holes from hanging pictures or paintings, use paint and spackle to make the
walls look new. Pick up some spackle first. Small amounts should suffice, should the holes not be too
large. You can even use a pin to apply spackle to a tiny hole. Once dry, smooth the hole with a credit
card. Then add paint. This quick fix will make any small hole disappear in a single day.
You use the areas between ceiling rafters and floor joists to store building materials. Long or large
pieces of material or molding like two-by-fours can placed somewhere inconspicuous with little
effort. All you have to do is put some furring strips on floor joists or your rafters.
Landscaping is a home improvement project you should consider. Landscaping on your home's front
lawn is often the first impression people get when coming to your home. Plus, you can really impress
your neighbors by having the neatest lawn on the block. A well kept lawn, some shrubbery and a few
flower beds can easily bring beauty to your property.
If you need to make renovations to your bathroom, you should make it handicap-accessible. It's not
necessary to fit all of the specialized equipment right away, but you can make preparations that will
be very useful if you stick with the same house as you grow older. When the time comes to put your
home on the market, these renovations can add value to your home.
A good tip is to put some insulation on your plumbing, so that your water will stay hot in the lines
and will not freeze during winter weather. Weatherizing tape, which you apply to your pipes, is
simple to find in most hardware and home improvement stores. Together, this will keep your water-
flow safe and secure. Safe plumbing is vital in the months of winter, because lacking it can result in
your pipes cracking or bursting open from the temperatures.

Use no-VOC paint when painting your house. Traditional paints contain harmful chemicals, but no-
VOC paints are made without and are environmentally friendly. They work just as well as
conventional paints and cost just a little more.
Home improvement is a very powerful concept. A few days of work can truly transform your house.
You are now equipped with lots of useful ideas for improving your home. All you have to do is pick
one and get to work.
