Need an update but not a total remodel?

Here’s a checklist of details that will improve your home.

Replace old toilets with more efficient low water use and soft close lids. The plumber can do this. Use the same color as the sinks in the space. Kohler and Toto are both good options. Washlets are popular and require added electrical to the toilet area.
Dark or small spaces – neutral or light walls are very in and make the space lighter and bigger. Warm up the color if the ceilings are 10’ or more.

Update recessed cans to take advantage of smaller cans with more efficient bulbs for general illumination in your home. Fluorescents can be used in utility areas but find bulbs that simulate natural light.
Level the floor to eliminate sunken spaces. They are a safety hazard.
If the popcorn isn’t gone off the ceiling, it should be!
Cabinetry hardware is easy to update if the knob or handle fits the same hole(s).
Old cabinets can be painted and a vessel sink added to low cabinets to bring the height up to 36” that is now standard.
Paint the garage floor with epoxy. It will be light and clean!
Tile countertops should be replaced with cleaner solid tops (no grout) and get your showers updated. Both can require coordination with several contractors so you may need a general contractor to oversee the project.
