Quick Transformations: 4 Home Renovation Projects for Busy Homeowners

At Twin Peaks Construction, we’re experts at transforming homes with unique home renovations and upgrades. While many home renovations require a homeowner to invest a lot of time and money, there are plenty of projects that don’t require as much effort.

Let us inspire you to try a short home renovation project that will add special touches to your home, whether you do it yourself or hire Twin Peaks to do the heavy lifting.

Believe it or not, here are 4 home renovation projects that can be completed in just a few days.

1. Improve your home’s entrance

The entrance to your home is a very important feature. It’s the first part of your home that visitors and passersby will see, so you want it to reflect your style and personality. Also, a bright and noticeable entrance improves your home’s curb appeal and increases its value.

To liven up your home’s entrance, try repainting the front door with a beautiful, eye-catching colour, such as blue, red or turquoise. Then, add special features to make your home’s entrance even more inviting. Consider adding solar lights to the walkway, a few colourful potted plants, and maybe a lovely bench. Your options are limitless.

2. Improve the Entryway

The entryway is the first space everyone sees inside your home. This area should be warm and inviting. It also must be practical to allow for a smooth transition from outside. Even if your entryway is small, you can include special touches to add personality and purpose.

Consider painting an accent wall and adding a statement piece, such as a vibrant painting or a large mirror. For a smaller space, add hooks and shelves to the wall to accommodate coats, umbrellas, children’s bookbags, and anything else. If you have enough room, furnish the area with a coat rack and a beautiful console table. This will give you plenty of room to leave your keys, mail and decorative mementos. After a short renovation, your entryway will feel brand new.

3. Transform a room with a coat of paint

Although it’s easy and affordable, a coat of paint can completely transform a room. If you’re planning to sell your home soon, choose a neutral colour. But if you’re planning to stay, choose what you like most. You might prefer something lighter, or perhaps you love bright and bold colours. Regardless of your style choices, the project won’t require much time or money to complete.

After painting a wall, or an entire room, you can take your room’s transformation even further with special touches that can have a big impact. For example, update the hardware and appliances in the kitchen and bathrooms.

4. Freshen up your patio or deck

Add new life to your patio or deck by adding touches of colour. Start with potted plants, one or two hanging plants, or an herb garden. Next, complement the space with colourful or whimsical décor, such as a windchime or lovely lights. With this extra care, your outdoor space can quickly become your personal oasis.
