Modernising your old home in Bristol with trusted Building Companies Bristol

You are lucky enough to live and work in a thriving, multicultural city like Bristol but your beloved family home has become outdated and no longer provides the right space you need to remain living there comfortably. Your best move would be to contact a reputable Building Companies Bristol like www.mogfordprescott.co.uk/builders-bristol and discuss plans to remodel your home. Have a defined idea on how you want your home to look when the modernisation has taken place.  Lots of older properties have several small living rooms, perhaps you may want to knock two of these small rooms into one to make a new open plan kitchen-diner?  The little breakfast room could be converted into a study so that when you work from home you have somewhere quiet and suitable for your laptop and printer. You may decide to leave your favourite, traditional front room with its large bay windows, picture rails and beautiful built-in fireplace as it is because you have always found it to be light and airy.

Having a new ensuite with a walk in shower, fitted into your large master bedroom is a great idea, picking your new tiles, flooring and coordinating bathroom suite is something to also take your time with so you get it right and love the finished effect.  Alongside that, have your original family bathroom updated with a new bath, shower cubicle, toilet and wash basin, new tiling and flooring. Of course, having all this work done to your home costs money so maybe think about either a low-cost loan from a bank or even releasing some of the equity from your home. Either of these monumental decisions need to be thought about long and hard before any definite contact with builders takes place.

Speaking to a trusted financial advisor before making any decisions is advisable, talking your plans through with family and friends is also sensible.  Maybe looking at other houses that have the style of rooms you will be looking for or talking through with your builders exactly what it is you want to achieve is a great idea. When you have made the decision to proceed with any modernisation work, have fun planning colours and textures for your new rooms.  Choosing new kitchen cabinets, tiles, and flooring alongside the new bath, toilet and shower unit for your ensuite will be a pleasure because you won’t have to worry too much about finances.
