You’re stuck in the house during lockdown, and you get antsy because of it. The thing is, it’s the perfect time right now to look at your home and give it an overhaul. When you can’t go out, you do what you can when you have to stay in and redecoration is the project you didn't know you needed.

There is a lot involved in redecorating the house, so if you're going to get into this project you need to be prepared for it to be big. You get to stamp your personality all over your living space and feel fantastic for it, especially if you can’t buy a house right now. Design trends are making a comeback, and you should want to be a part of that so that you can have the house of your dreams! So, let’s check out five reasons now is the perfect time to redecorate your home.

1. You Need A Style Update

Things can get pretty stale when you are living in the same decor for years on end. Over time, you can get really tired of staring at the same four walls, so it’s time to update the style. We talked about design trends making a comeback, so why not look at what’s going on in the design world and see what’ll suit your house!

2. Kids, Kids & More Kids

When you add to your family, you need to give some rooms a breath of fresh air. They need a nursery, and then they grow out of farm animals and need an upgraded space in which to sleep. Your lounge space may need an extension to have a playroom, and that will need a good lick of paint, too!

3. You Want To Sell

When you redecorate your home, you can get it ready for sale. It’s called staging, and you may choose to redecorate to make it more appealing to buyers. You want to add light and make it modern while also making the space liveable! A neutral colour palette appeals to most people.

4. Your Lifestyle Is Changing

As we get older, we grow out of certain tastes and colour schemes that we have in our homes. As you get older, your home reflects your tastes. Maybe you are planning to downgrade now the kids are older, which means that you need to change what their bedroom was used for. You want to make sure that you get the most out of your space and that requires redecoration.

5. Increased Value 

You don't want to sell right now, but you will one day. The best way to add value to a house is to maintain it and change things around/ you can add extensions, open the rooms to make them a more open-plan living space. Adding value depends on what you’re doing to the house itself, but even the most basic changes will add something amazing to your house. Updating the flooring can change the look instantly.

Now is the time to change it all up - so, make your plans. You have a house to redecorate!
