Remodeling Your Home: Best Home Improvements That Add Resale Value

The money you just spent on that new sink and automatic sprinkler system isn’t going down the drain. Think of it as seed money. Most home improvements add resale value to your home, some more than others.

Spending on home improvement projects is expected to rise in 2021. Here’s why: Interest rates remain low, COVID-19 has people spending more time at home, and more homeowners are looking to increase the value of their homes before a sale.

Before you pick up the hammer and nails, here’s some constructive advice: Ask a real estate agent for recent home sale prices in your area. This will help you set a budget so you don’t spend more than you can expect to recoup.

Here are the best home improvements that will add resale value to your home.

Paint

Whether you’re planning on selling or staying in your home for a while, you can’t go wrong with a fresh coat of paint. Start with the front door. A recent Zillow analysis found that a black front door can increase the sale price of a house by as much as $6,000.

Landscaping

The first thing prospective buyers see is your front yard. Curb appeal can be the difference between attracting a bid and losing offers to your competition. A good landscape design can account for 20% of the value of your home.

In Gainesville, the average cost of landscape design and build is just under $4,000 according to LawnStarter. Outdoor projects like building new patios and stone walkways will add thousands more to your expenses but could be worth the investment, adding several thousand more to your sale price.

Flooring

When a prospective buyer walks into your home, the condition of your floor immediately makes an impression. If they don’t like what they see, they will already be calculating the cost and inconvenience of having to upgrade worn carpets or out-of-date tile.

If you can remodel some, but not all your flooring, kitchen and bathrooms are a priority.

Kitchen

Outdated kitchen appliances, countertops, and cabinets can make the entire home feel like a relic. Remodeling this room can also be the most expensive project. Once again, have a clear budget in mind and start with items that will immediately freshen up the look of your kitchen.

Having wooden cabinets painted and new hardware installed will make a great impression. A new kitchen sink and modern faucet is a must. If countertops and backsplash areas are dated and show signs of damage, consider replacing them.

If your appliances are mismatched, malfunctioning, or beat-up looking, replacing them with energy-efficient models will boost the value of your home.

Bathrooms

The rooms that get some of the most use in the house are also often the most in need of an upgrade. Replacing toilets is relatively inexpensive and low-flow models can save you money in the long run.

Hazy glass shower doors, soap scummy tile, grungy grout, and moldy spots should either be power cleaned or replaced. Old sinks, faucets, vanities, cabinetry, and decorative items like mirrors, medicine cabinets, light fixtures, towel bars, and toilet paper holders can all be upgraded to freshen up bathrooms. If wallpaper or paint has been there a while, it’s time for a couple of fresh coats.

Penny Wise, Pound Foolish

It may be tempting to try and save money by DIY. That’s just one of the costly mistakes homeowners make while renovating and remodeling. If you’re the type who measures twice, cuts once and curses three times, it’s best to leave the job to the professionals. The cost of an emergency room visit and wasted materials adds up.

Remember, the choices you make to add resale value to your home aren’t necessarily the same choices you would make when staying in for years to come. Pet projects like changing the style of your staircase banister or adding closet organizers will not be the kinds of items that pay off in your quest to attract the highest selling price. Save those projects for your next place.

March Time to Spring Forward

Gainesville 352-372-1221

Ocala 352-622-5277

March time to Spring Forward! The Spring Equinox is finally upon us, and it’s also time to remodel! The official first day of spring 2017 is March 20th.  Warmer weather is on its way, which most look forward to after a long, brutally cold winter.  There are some of us that associate spring time with spring cleaning, and opening up the windows in your home for the smell of the invigorating spring air.  This year, Easter will be on Sunday, April 16, 2017.  So get ready for the Easter Bunny to arrive, dyed eggs, and chocolate candies galore! 

Students will be celebrating Spring Break this month as well.  Many people will be attending spring festivals in their hometowns. Gardening is also a big hit in the Spring Time.  Flowers and trees are in full bloom, so it is the best season for gardening in most gardeners’ opinion.  Daylight Savings Time will also occur in March.  This year it will happen on Sunday, March 10, 2017, so don’t forget to set your clocks forward one hour.

March Time to Spring Forward

March Time to Spring Forward

For most Floridians, warm weather is not something that is sought after mostly because it’s warm nearly year-round.  But for those that reside in the northern states, often get excited about the anticipation of spring.  Spring washes away the snow, as the sun starts to shine brightly, bringing joy to those that endured a rough, dark winter.  The outdoor activities become much more enjoyable, and people tend to spend more time outside in the spring season.  The smell of fresh cut grass will be in the air as homeowners tend to their yards.  Children will finally be able to ride their bikes, play on playgrounds, and partake in pool or beach time with family and friends.

March Time to Spring Forward

Easter is a holiday when families normally come together as one.  We visit with our loved ones, while eating great food, and hiding Easter eggs for the kids to hunt down.  There are a few traditions associated with Easter that you may have never heard of before.    The Easter Bunny tradition actually made its way over from Europe in the 18th century.  In Europe, they were known to refer to the Easter Bunny as “The Easter Hare”.  

The most common Easter traditions are making baskets, coloring/dying eggs,  egg hunts, and getting all dolled up in bonnets and fancy outfits. The traditional act of painting eggs is called “Pysanka”.  This originated in the Ukraine, and the eggs are painted with beeswax instead of dye.  In 2011, the tallest chocolate Easter egg was constructed in Italy.  It was taller than a giraffe and heavier than an elephant.  Americans consume over 16 million jelly beans on Easter and buy more than 700 million marshmallow “Peeps” during the Easter holiday. On Easter, the White House hosts an Easter Egg Roll on the front lawn.  This tradition was started by President Rutherford B. Hayes in 1878.

March Time to Spring Forward

Spring is often associated with the best time to plant a flower or vegetable garden.  Even if your thumb isn’t so green, it is all about trial and error with gardening, and anybody can do it.  All it takes is dedication and a little TLC.  Here are a few tips that everyone should know if you are planning on starting or repairing a garden this spring:  First thing you should do is prepare the soil.  You want to till the garden area 8 to 12 inches beneath the soil while removing any rocks and any other debris.  Make sure not to till when the soil is too wet, you may hinder the growth of plants and flowers.  Make sure to pluck out all of the weeds that have overtaken the soil. 

Next, you will want to fertilize.  Professional gardener’s and landscapers say it is suitable to use coffee grounds for your garden.  It is the more “green” way to fertilize and can be slightly less expensive than store-bought fertilizers.  Coffee grounds are filled with nitrogen (a mineral that aids in vegetable and plant growth).  Another tip is adding your cooking water to your plants.  Cooled cooking water adds nutrients and minerals to your plants that are left behind after cooking some of your favorite pasta and potatoes.  Chamomile tea is a great way to avoid your plants getting infected with bacteria and/or fungus.  Many gardening experts believe that planting your veggies, fruits, plants, and flowers at night will help your garden to grow faster. Planting at night also maximizes your water usage.

March Time to Spring Forward

Take this time of year to enjoy all that spring has to offer.  Plant a garden.  Go on a bike ride.  Sign up for the county softball league.  Go to the springs and rent a kayak.  Have a picnic with someone special.  Visit a farm to see the animals.  Pick strawberries.  Listen to the rain.  Feel the sun on your face.  Decorate your home with fresh flowers.  Explore.  Celebrate and enjoy Easter with family and friends.  Spring time has so much to offer, and the weather is marvelous!

Water Leaks

Gainesville Restoration and Remodeling’s skilled leak detection experts are capable of locating multiple leaks; as well as newly growing leaks that you may not know about yet. Furthermore, we can identify leaks at specific locations in the water pipes; so that they can be fixed before they become a more serious problem.

So, if your water bill is too high you might have a leaking toilet, water heater or a slab leak. Because water can flow through an open fill valve at a rate of up to five gallons per minute; wasting thousand of gallons of water a day. If you notice a toilet leak or a significant increase in your water and sewer bill; don’t wait to have it repaired. Slab leaks can go undetected for long periods of time because these pipes are under the foundation. We recommend that you test each toilet in your home for leaks once a year.

Bathroom Remodeling Ideas. So, you’ve decided that it’s time to remodel your bathroom?  There is always going to be a certain amount of planning that goes into remodeling a bathroom.  Here, we are going to give you a few tips for making your bathroom a functional, stylish room, and something that will meet your price range.  Gainesville Restoration and Remodeling has skilled, experienced staff to call on for all your bathroom remodeling project needs.

Bathroom Remodeling Ideas

Bathroom Remodeling Ideas

First, let’s talk floors.  If you are looking for a floor that is easy to sweep and mop; porcelain or glazed tiles are going to be perfect for you.  You want to avoid porous stones (such as limestone).  They tend to absorb drips and will become stained over time.  For non-slip floors, you will want to choose tiles with textured surfaces, matte finishes, or sand-containing glazes.

When using caulk make sure to go for an acrylic or hybrid formula.  This way you can remove it without using harsh chemicals.  Since caulk that contains mildewcide offers more long-term protection.  Wiring is another thing you will want to change at the time of remodel.  After long periods of time the wiring in your bathroom has been used and abused by endless hours of; curling irons, blow dryers, electric toothbrushes, and any other household appliance that we use on a daily basis.  Swapping the GFCI outlets isn’t enough.  Change the wiring with a 20 AMP circuit and make sure to install plenty of outlets.

Bathroom Remodeling Ideas

Now let’s discuss style and trends.  Storage space is always a great thing to keep in mind when planning a remodel.  One of the most utilizing bathroom sinks will be a vanity with sink.  While it takes up the most room, it has a great look and is great for storage.  Therefore, an average bathroom vanity has about 15 cubic feet of storage.  It normally has 10 inches of countertop on each side.  Make sure to leave enough space to open the cabinet doors and drawers.  Then there is the vessel sink.  The sink bowl sits on top of the counter with this sink.  The workspace is smaller than that of a vanity sink.  It is also tougher to keep clean.

Here’s a little cheat-sheet for you when choosing a countertop.  Natural stone would be best for the homeowners that vigorously take care of their high-end bathrooms.  Granite is highly stain and scratch resistant. It also looks beautiful and classy.  While these can be a bit pricier, you’ll get more for your buck.  Marble and limestone must be sealed regularly (due to their porous surfaces).  Abrasive surfaces can show water marks.

Budget Remodeling Ideas. Remodeling your home may be a costly venture, but there are ways around breaking the bank to revamp your home; open up space and make your home feel like new.

Budget Remodeling Ideas

Rearrange Your Furniture

Let your room breath.  Before committing to a full-on remodel, try rearranging your furniture. So, if the goal is to open up the space, avoid placing furniture near or across the entryway. In addition, removing pieces of furniture that interfere or block any natural lighting; will create a more inviting tone and help open up the room. Also, replacing dark window shades or curtains with sheer drapes can allow more light into the room to let it breathe.

Can’t bare the emptiness? Sometimes with larger spaces, it can be challenging to find the balance between filling the emptiness and cluttering the room.  A large throw rug can not only add a little depth and color but can also help eliminate echoes. Try pulling the furniture away from the walls. Also, organize the furniture in different directions to give your space a flow and logic. Proper placement of chairs, tables, and artwork can help guide your guests. Decide on a purpose or focal point for your space and then work around it.

Don’t Be Afraid of Color

Mixing and matching is OK. Older styles and trends focus on one color or pattern. Also, simply adding a splash or accent color can bring an old room back to life! So, don’t be afraid to play with schemes of color. Mix and match solid colored furniture or play with patterns and solids to add depth and texture.

No budget for new furniture? Reupholster a few pieces of furniture you already own or purchase some playful covers. Boom! No one has to know it’s the same old couch – It can be our little secret. Simply adding a variety of pillows and throw blankets is another affordable way to spice up an old room. If it’s a dining room or kitchen; new place settings and centerpieces can be a small way to make a fresh change.

Budget Remodeling Ideas

Fixtures and Paint

Be green and recycle. Have antique furniture that you can’t bear parting with but can’t stand looking at? New knobs and fixtures may be just the trick to fool your annoyed eye. You can even use stencils to get creative and play with patterns in bathrooms or dining rooms.

Work smarter, not harder. Obviously, repainting a room will give it an entirely new energy. But what if you’re just not feeling that ambitious? Accent walls are the lazy remodeler’s best-kept secret. Therefore, choose one or two of the smallest walls in the room; then paint them in a bold shade that matches your color scheme. Also, this will increase the depth of your room and help add a third dimension.

Been There Done That

Some of you may be thinking, “I’ve just about exhausted every furniture formation and paint combination out there. I need something more extreme.” Well, before you go looking for a new home, consider renovating your current home! By refreshing your home with a renovation, you get to upgrade your lifestyle, keep your family memories, maintain lifelong friendships with your neighbors, and avoid the cost and frustrations of a move.

A total knockout. If your home was built in the early 80’s; you may have a lot of small rooms that need to be reconfigured to open up the space. A more modern and open interior can help bring your living space from a 20th-century parlor to a 21st-century entertainment room.

A little nip and tuck. When a makeover won’t do the trick, sometimes you need a little reconstruction. There is nothing worse than an outdated kitchen to bring down the vibe of your party. Trash the Formica and acrylic faucet knobs! A granite counter upgrade, backsplash and some new fixtures and cabinets; can take 20 years off the face of your kitchen.

So, if you’re ready to take the next step and get pricing and ideas for a remodel; contact us at Gainesville Restoration and Remodeling!

Remodeling Idea Boards. Do you have a dream remodel? Too many choices and you don’t know where to start? If so, bring your ideas into reality by creating a Remodel Idea Board.

Basically, there are two ways to create a Remodel Idea Board; online or on paper.

Remodeling Idea Boards

Remodeling Idea Boards

Online

First, Pinterest is a great place to create dream boards. Because Pinterest provides many ideas for every aspect of remodeling and interior design, down to the smallest detail. You can create as many “boards” as you like; one for each room, one for each theme, or one for each color or style you’re considering. Then you add all of the images to each board that appeals to you. We love using Pinterest for showing the wide range of styles and options available. The only drawback to Pinterest is the scope; there’s no limit to your choices, so narrowing down your style choices can be difficult.

Remodeling Idea Boards

On Paper

The other option for your Remodel Idea Board is on paper. This can be a large piece of poster paper or corkboard with images from; the internet, images from magazines, fabric swatches, even photographs. You can include anything that inspires you, such as a sea shell with lovely colors or a scarf. The paper Remodel Idea Board is only so large, so it forces you to make decisions; to really narrow down your choices until you find the combination that really works for you.

Once you’ve narrowed your ideas down, call us! We would love to assist you with all your kitchen remodeling needs from 3D design, blueprint/drawings, and permitting to completion.

All our costs and scope of work are defined and broken out; so you can see where the costs are associated with your project. We include allowances for you so you know you will stay within your budget. Also, there are no surprises or hidden fees. We know the importance of turning your kitchen space into your personal oasis; the importance of changing the way you live, and the importance of staying within your budget.

Rediscover Sleeping Porches. Have you ever slept on a sleeping porch? But, If not, you owe it to yourself to experience the slumber of a Sleeping Porch. Sleeping porches were common for many of the homes in the South around the 1920’s. Gainesville Restoration and Remodeling can design and build a Sleeping Porch for you.

Rediscover Sleeping Porches

Rediscover Sleeping Porches

Sleeping porches were born out of the recent discovery of germs in the 1920’s. Because the sleeping porch offered a healthy and comfortable escape from the potentially germ-filled indoor air. Since, in the early 1900’s, tuberculosis was the number one cause of death; and fresh air was the best treatment for people suffering from this lung ailment. The population in the southern states discovered that by building a screened, private porch; they could enjoy the cooler summer nights rather than sleeping in a stuffy and warm bedroom. In addition, the sleeping porch provided cover from sudden summer thunderstorms. In addition, it was open on two or more sides to catch the evening breezes. These porches became an especially popular place for children to spend their summer nights.

Sleeping on your screened porch is becoming popular again as people seek to spend more time connecting with nature. Also, you can convert your screened porch to a sleeping porch with the simple addition of a bed. But, you don’t have a screened porch? Well then, let us build one for you!

Remodeling Project Tips – Gainesville Restoration and Remodeling. Making the decision to remodel your home is tough because there are so many variables. Furthermore, hiring the right company to help with the remodeling is important; which is why being aware of the necessary steps and what to look for in a contractor is critically important.

Remodeling Project Tips

Remodeling Project Tips

Get Recommendations

First, listen to what other individuals have to say about the company that you’re considering hiring. Because friends and family are a great resource; find out whom they’ve hired and their experience with the company. Also, one the most powerful resources today would be the Internet and social media. Websites such as Angie’s List, the Better Business Bureau or Google Plus will give you insightful reviews from past customers. In addition, ask for a reference list of past customers, and even material suppliers.

Plan Your Project

You have probably been thinking of this project for a long time, and you’re ready to tackle it! Before meeting with potential remodeling companies; it’s important to come up with an idea of what you expect and want to see as the end result. Ask the representative what materials you should bring to the initial meeting; so the company can best understand your needs and give you an appropriate estimate. Knowing what you want will make it easier when the company that creates the plans and specifications.

Remodeling Project Tips

Time to Meet!

Once you have narrowed down the list of potential companies; it’s important that the company you choose can answer any questions regarding your project and put you at ease with any concerns you might have. Communication is key when working on projects in your home.

Get Estimates

Asking more than one company for an estimate is a crucial step. Every company has a different perspective on costs. Be sure to choose the one that fits your budget and your preferences the most. Keep in mind that going for the company with the lowest costs is not always the best decision. Ask for a detailed line item estimate showing allowances for fixtures, building materials, and permits. The golden rule is to get at least two estimates!

Remodeling Project Tips

Put it in Writing

The contractor should draft a contract that states every detail of the project. It should include the payment schedule, the start and completion dates and specific materials that will be used. You should also require the contract to acquire lien releases. This protects you from any financial responsibility if your contractor doesn’t pay the necessary bills from subcontractors and supply companies. If there are any changes to your contract, a change order is needed. A change order is a written authorization to the contractor to make changes or additions to the original contract.

Warranty

Make sure your contractor offers a warranty and verify the duration and what’s covered by the warranty. The warranty also needs to be in writing.

Remodeling can be a stressful process but the end result is rewarding. These tips hopefully guide your process when selecting a company that best fits your needs. Here at Gainesville Restoration & Remodeling we want to help you through the process and assist you in making the best possible decision!

When remodeling your kitchen, you can expect to gain back anywhere from 60 to 120 percent of your investment. The most sought-after countertop is durable granite. If granite is out of your budget, try laminate countertops that look like natural stone at a lower price. Fresh paint can also go a long way when updating the look of your kitchen.

Appliances

Have appliances that are older than 10 years? Consider investing in new appliances that use less energy. Because Energy Star appliances will save you money on your energy bills; and are a great long-term addition because of their quality.

Bathrooms

Outdated or non-functional bathrooms make your own life uncomfortable and are a big turn off to potential buyers. We have some great ideas in a recent blog post. Check it out!

Next time you remodel your home; think of places that need the most improvement and will be beneficial in the long run. Please Contact Gainesville Restoration and Remodeling for all your remodeling help!

Keep it casual

Casual equals comfort. Consider how you’ve decorated your living room and bring some of those same elements; such as a comfy couch, lamps, and mirror – outside. Don’t make yourself choose between the comfort of your living room or the pleasure of your porch. Merge them to create a truly unique outdoor experience.

Add a breeze

Florida weather normally gives off a nice breeze, but for days when it’s lacking turn on a fan. A ceiling fan can be a practical and decorative addition.

Add greenery

Also, in lieu of a standard privacy fence, add a wall of shrubs or flowers. So, if you’re looking for a smaller project; hang several plants around the shaded deck to add both fragrance and curb appeal.

Mood lighting

For concentrated glows choose rustic lanterns. For more saturated but soft lighting, hang strings of white lights from the rafters. Sunlight is great for daytime, but these two tricks will make the evenings magical.

Stream music

Now that the setting and mood are completely relaxing and comfortable; stream your favorite tunes through an all-weather sound system, which can be found at your local electronics store.

Nothing will want to make you stay home more than having this personal retreat in your backyard. Enjoy your summer evenings with close family and friends. Please let us know how these tips worked out for you on the Gainesville Restoration and Remodeling Facebook page!
