Home Improvement

On top of getting your house painted and decorated, you also want to implement other home improvement measures. The opportunities are endless around the house, and here are some ideas and recommended companies to help you out. Getting good quality customer service from reliable experienced teams are very important when making any changes.

Building or renovating a house is easily the biggest job involved in home improvement. So finding a reputable company is paramount to ensure your new home or extension happens smoothly, in a timely fashion, and on budget. Peter White Constructions performs kitchen and bathroom renovations, and also perform laundry renovations, extensions and new decking. My Bathroom also specialise in bathroom renovations and have over 10 years experience transforming rooms around the house. They have high quality contractors to perform plumbing, electrical, carpentry and plastering, so every step of the way you know the renovation is going to be done well. Whether you have something specific in mind, or want an innovative design to suit your desires, either of these businesses will look after you, from start to finish.

Even more important is having an energy efficient home. Reduce power bills substantially by incorporating solar panels into your house. Cola Solar provides a range of products including panels, solar hot water, air conditioning and HRV home ventilation, to help reduce your carbon footprint and save you money! They provide solar energy to residents in Ballarat as well as other towns in Victoria. Similarly, Australian Hydronic Supplies provides hydronic heating systems for your home. This is very energy efficient and great for all types of dwellings.

Another great way to improve your home is by installing wrought iron gates and fences. These give your home added security plus they look great. Luigi at Professional Gates has designed hundreds of gates for numerous satisfied customers and can create something that suits your house. AAA Inline Fencing can also build a range of fences to fit all types of properties.

A new fence or gate will give your property greater aesthetics and also increase it's resale value.

If you're buying a home then you likely want to make sure it's in good condition, free of safety issues or defects. Simply looking over the house yourself will not necessarily identify all the problems, many which could be lurking out of sight. Safehome offers building inspections to Adelaide home-buyers including pre-purchase building inspections to make sure everything is sound. With experienced inspectors who know what to look for, they will send you a 50 page report so you can be sure the house is up to scratch.

Noisy pipes, blocked drains and even bathroom renovations are part of the services provided by both of these companies. To prevent leaking in the first place, you should look to waterproof your bathroom and any other areas that get wet.
