Whilst the New Year signals a lot of movement in the housing market, selling up and moving on just isn’t an option for many people. However, this doesn’t have to be a problem as there are many great local Bolton businesses that can help you improve your home this coming year.

The part people see the most of your house is the outside. And that’s not just those coming to visit, it’s also those that just happen to be passing by. Having clean windows will not only make it sparkle on the outside, but it’ll make the inside look better too. A1 Fosters Window Cleaning and HCS Cleaning Services are both renowned throughout Bolton for excellent work and quality customer service.

The roof is also a pretty important feature in your home. Making sure it is up-to-date and working efficiently is imperative, especially during these early winter months, but also later on in the year. Danmarque Roofing can repair roofs, as well as replace them, dealing with tiled, sloping roofs and flat roofs alike.

Danmarque can also help when it comes to another outdoor feature; the garage. Not only can Danmarque Garages help with asbestos removal, but they can also convert the garage into a completely new and revolutionised space, perfect if moving house isn’t an option. And Chamberlain Doors can provide the perfect door for that garage, be it a fancy electronic one, or a traditional looking up-and-over.

It is very easy for drives and patios to pick up a lot of dirt and grime, especially this time of year with the rain and the snow. But discolouration can cause an eyesore. Instead of paying a small fortune to buy a power washer, enlist the help of Power Washing North West who can do an excellent job at a great price.

Moving inside the home, before altering the interior, it is prudent to make sure everything mechanical is working properly. Boilers, for example, are hugely important, and it is a good idea to make sure it is working correctly to avoid issues such as Carbon Monoxide poisoning. VPS Plumbing and BHE Services can help with boiler issues as well as other plumbing services.

When it comes to the bedroom, nobody wants to sleep in an outdated room. Some people believe this can affect your sleeping patters and mean you’re not as well rested as you should be. Phase Two can design a new fitted bedroom for you, built to your specification, whilst Premier Stores can supply you with a brand new bed or sofa bed, including the latest Tempur products.

Bathrooms can draw a lot of the criticism when visitors are in your home. A new, redesigned bathroom will transform your home, but it can be expensive. Which means you should use a reputable company. P&D Heating & Bathroom have an excellent range available from classic British designs, as do Posh Bathing who deal with the latest in Italian and German style.

Tiles fit anywhere in the home, on the floor or the wall, and can make a difference in any room, the kitchen, bathroom, hallway, bedroom, you name it. Bolton Ceramics are Bolton’s premier independent tile store, and will have something perfect for your home, in a number of designs, colours and styles.

A small change that can be made, which will have an instant and extensive impact, is to install some new or updated blinds. Aspiration Blinds and Budget Blinds both are leaders in their fields, well known and popular in Bolton, and regularly receive excellent recommendations thanks to their great work and outstanding customer service.

If there is any big building or remodelling to be done, why look any further than Wisecraft. No job is too big for them, and they complete everything efficiently, effectively and to the highest possible standards. They also happen to be have been voted the best builders in the UK for both the previous two years.

Redecorating your new home will be an important and delicate job, so why not get the experts involved. CP Decorators can do it all, from painting and wallpapering, plastering and constructing. They are a highly-skilled workforce who is fully qualified in all aspects of redecorating, and do so to the ‘Guild Of Master Craftsman’ standards.

With a redesigned home should come brand new furniture. After all, why bother if everything is going to be the same? Global Interiors can supply furniture and features for every room, and a lot of it is one-of-a-kind, from tables and chairs, to beds and kitchens. The furniture from Global Interiors is high-spec but reasonably priced.

And, to make room for all this great new furniture, and to earn some money to put towards it, contact Bolton Ebiz who can sell your clutter on Ebay. They will do all the hard work, from managing the sales, to photographing the products. And they only charge a small commission which is then donated to Bolton Steps, helping the lives of people suffering from mental health issues.

Finally with this great redesigned home, you’ll want to keep it safe and secure. Authorized Access have a great range of security products for inside the home, as well as security systems for the outside. Westwood Electrical can also supply you with everything you could need to keep intruders out and your family and possessions safe inside.
