Usually heading into the New Year we tend to make resolutions that we will eventually break, usually personal resolutions such as less time on social media or more time at the gym. This year, we are suggesting you make more time for home improvement. Here are 5 New Years Resolutions for your Home:

1. Your Floor Plan: It’s the New Year and it’s time to shake things up floor plan wise in your home. Rearrange your furniture not only for a fresh look but also to better organize your space.

2. Energy Bills: You can save a lot of money on the energy bills by doing a few simple things such as turning off the lights, turning down the thermostat, unplugging cords on things that are not being used and making sure your doors and windows are properly sealed.

3. Finish up your basement: This is obviously a larger project to commit too but could be the most rewarding one for years to come.

4. Get an outdoor living space ready: Of course, this is the last thing we are thinking about in January, but spring will be here before you know it and you will be making more memories in no time outdoors. You’d be surprised how easy it is to convert a deck to a sunroom. With townhomes, rooftop terraces are usually pretty popular when it comes to creating a great outdoor living space.

5. Maintenance Free Materials: Update your home with maintenance free materials such as fiber cement siding, LED Light Bulbs, LED Lighting and ceramic tile. This will save you money on the energy bill and give you much less stress!
