During Covid hardly anyone wanted to move house, and so we sat at home thinking about the projects we would love to get cracking with.
There was a huge rise in home renovations and improvements during the pandemic – from new kitchens and bathrooms to an extension, conservatory or orangery. With little else to spend our money on, improving the look and comfort of our homes seemed like the perfect idea.
According to Property Reporter magazine, this trend is set to continue. According to the magazine, 2022 is set to be a record year with 66% of homeowners admitting there are home improvements they would like to start. It seems the most popular changes are set to be cosmetic, such as new paint and carpets. Luckily Lichfield house owners have some great local businesses to call on.

The second most popular home improvement for 2022 is set to be kitchen renovation, with 34% having this on their wish list. Often this is one of the most expensive and complex rooms to renovate, and so you will want to employ the services of a professional and trustworthy tradesman. Luckily, yet again, we are well catered for in the Lichfield area.
