With many of us spending more time at home, the increased time spent within your home may spark that need for change and work needing to be done around the house can become difficult to unsee. Perhaps you have an old floor you have been wanting to replace for years or an ensuite bathroom which could really do with a refresh, now is the perfect time to revamp your home. 

2020 has proven to be a prime opportunity to remodel homes and gardens with many Australians taking the lock down to their advantage. Reflecting on how to make their home more comfortable, pleasant, and safe individuals have been flocking to home & hardware stores. Bunnings sales were up 19.2 per cent in the second half of the financial year (FY20) and spending on household furnishings and equipment were up by 53 per cent. Victoria had the highest number of trade services jobs posted during COVID-19 

Remodelling your home does not need to be a complicated process. Alt Surfaces offer a unique Remodel Without Removal™ to remodel any solid surface using our X-Bond overlay system.   

So, just because you can, why should you remodel your home?  

Increase home value 

This can be done even by the simplest of things such as a fresh coat of paint or decluttering or resurfacing old flooring. Adding value to your home during this time puts you in good stead in the post corona virus market.  

Improve wear & tear 

The amount of time spent in our homes has been drastically increased allowing for general wear and tear to show much faster. Simple but effective ways to improve wear and tear could include staining concrete driveways, updating old carpet or polishing old concrete floors. All simple but effective and will drastically improve the worn-out look of your home. 

Home efficiency  

During lockdown, it may become obvious what work needs to be done to your home to increase its efficiency. Installing new flooring such as Quartz Carpet not only gives you a textured finish with many colours to choose from, it is extremely resilient, durable and easy to clean. 

Just imagine that post lockdown dinner party with your newly improved flooring! Give your home a new lease on life.
