16 simple ideas for remodeling projects

Often times when we think of a custom remodeling project we get stars in our eyes. We think of the complete kitchen or bath remodel, the finished basement or the addition. Those are great projects and we like doing them, but sometimes if you don’t have the budget starting simple is the way to go. Add things incrementally over time. Below is a list of ideas for simple remodeling projects that won’t break the bank but that will add some freshness to your home.

  1. Adding a deck
  2. Adding a patio
  3. Adding a Gazebo
  4. Adding a covered deck
  5. Opening up the family room to the kitchen
  6. Opening up the family room to the sitting room
  7. Adding a window to a room
  8. Adding a new doorway to a room
  9. Adding a mud room or laundry room
  10. Converting a porch to a laundry or mud room
  11. Adding some built ins around the fireplace for an entertainment center or library
  12. Adding French Doors to turn a sitting room into an office
  13. Adding some shutters or a new door to spice up the front elevation
  14. Adding a closet to a room
  15. Adding wainscoting to a formal dining room
  16. Adding window seats to a bedroom
