Due to COVID-19, most of those who spent 9 to 5 outside of their houses are now inside. This is not a minor detail, but a major game-changer. The more time we spend at home, the more comfort we need from it. Some people went out and bought an Espresso machine to match the one at work, and others had more creative ideas. If you want some simple tips with huge results, read on, apply, and live happier than ever inside the home.
Natural light
If you were used to spending the hours following noon at work, you wouldn´t normally worry about natural light at home. I mean, as long as your office was near a window, you could get it every day. Now that people spend more time at home and less time at work, it is time to address the natural light issue. Let´s review two different ideas for two different budgets:
· Add windows – This is for owners who have a slightly bigger budget. If your house feels dark, adding some natural sunlight can solve the issue. You can have new windows set on the walls or, if you feel adventurous, try some ceiling light; results are amazing.
· White paint job – If you don´t have the budget to build a window or it is not your house, you can take better advantage of whatever natural light comes in painting the interior in white. This color reflects on the light making rooms seem more luminous. As a positive side effect, rooms also look bigger when painted in white.
Electricity
Most of us postpone electricity problems and cope with small noises here and there. If you are doing home-office, you need to withstand that small noise all day long, which might drive you crazy. In order to avoid losing sanity, just revise the electrical system in your house with professionals, and improve isolation. You´ll see that results are beyond anything you imagined with very little money and time.
Ceiling and roofing
When was the last time you looked up when in your house? Ceilings are often a house´s most overlooked spot. Hiring a company to do a proper paint job (and even install some cool lights) will transform your rooms simply, fast and cheap.
Wood professionals
Do you own several pieces of wooden furniture? What about cupboards and stairways? When was the last time you had those checked by a professional carpenter? They can help you reshape, fix, tighten, and make all the wooden items in your house more durable. Also, those with a little extra budget can choose to complement that with some new, custom made furniture to add comfort to their lives.
Conclusion
A company that can help you do all the needed work in your home is always a plus. Being able to just call them and get electricians, carpenters, painters, and more can be a game-changer. Look for one of those in your area and enjoy your house like you never did before.
