Why Home Upgrades Are Best Done Yourself

18/09/2016 by Ann Oslo

Have you been thinking about upgrading your house this year, but haven’t quite gotten around to it yet? Maybe it’s something on your list for the new year, and you’re only in the very preliminary stages of planning the refurbishments that need to be done. Either way, here is a short list of why house and home refits and refurbishments are best done yourself – instead of purchasing those big all inclusive packages from home outfitters.

Cost

It’s no surprise that doing things yourself can cost a lot less – most of the time. Of course for things like plumbing and electrical, you’re best off getting a contractor in to do the heavy lifting here, which will actually save you money in the long run in case you happen to get something even slightly incorrect. Things like tiling though, most people are able to do themselves, and save a bundle by doing so. With websites like PlumbTile offering up fantastic prices on things like Porcelanosa Tile, it couldn’t be easier to find some stylish tile for your home upgrade, including things like toilets, showers, zuchetti faucets or even all the materials needed to retile your kitchen or bathroom!

Skills

Doing your own refit can help you develop new and useful skills that you can not only use to save money – but also MAKE money! That’s right – using these new skills you develop means you can help your friends or family refit their houses for less money than hiring carpenters or home installation folks to come do it for them! That’s a bonus right there.

So there you have two great reasons why doing your own home upgrades and refits can be beneficial – not just on your pocketbook, but on your future as well. Save money and develop some great skills that are desirable – perfect! So grab your hammer and get to work – that kitchen won’t build itself!
