Before you start your annual spring sweeping and dusting, it’s time to renovate and refresh your interiors. Have you been wanting to change up some things around the house but haven’t found the time or simply are not sure how to give your home a quick makeover?

Not to worry. With the help and tips of Handy Squad, London handyman service, I’ve put together some spring home improvement and renovation ideas to transform your home. Once you’re done with the improvements and renovations, you can tackle your annual spring cleaning.

Check your windows and doors

Spring also comes hand-in-hand with April showers and cold(ish) breezes, so it’s important to make sure your windows are doors are properly sealed. As the Handy Squad mention in a blog post, “If you feel a cold breeze coming through your windows and doors, it means that these are not properly draughtproof. If wind can pass through these openings, so can water.”

Add some colour to your interiors

Whether your walls need a new lick of paint or you feel like your house is too neutral and doesn’t have enough colours, it’s time to change that. There are many ways to add colour to your interiors, including painting your walls, hanging wallpaper, painting furniture or adding colourful art to your walls. Don’t Cramp My Style recommends adding colourful accessories around your home. “If you prefer to have bare walls but still want to bring some colour into your home, adding some colourful accessories and furniture will be the way to go.”

Replace old flooring

The Lifestyle Blogger UK mentions that you should consider whether you would like to change your flooring up when redecorating as flooring can completely transform a room. “Even though this may be one of the last things to accomplish on your decorating to-do list – it is a good idea to decide on what you are doing before you begin your process.”

Give your garden some love

The sunny summer weather is on its way, so it’s time to give your garden some much-needed attention. Cut the tall grass, remove weeds, get rid of any old leaves laying around, plant some new flowers and give your garden shed a new coat of paint.

Make your entrance stand out

As this article on Real Simple says, “Many of us probably have an extra can or two of paint lying around, so why not put it to use? For a big impact, consider repainting your front door. You’ll be surprised to see what a dramatic difference a freshly painted door makes.” And I couldn’t agree more – make your entrance stand out with a colourful front door.
