Winter Projects To Improve Your Home

Posted on January 22nd, 2020 by Devine Bros

If you’re like many, the DIY bug might hit you during the colder months of the season, and you’re left wondering what you can do, build or fix to improve the quality of your home. It’s easy to think of a few smaller ideas — but the ones that make the most difference are usually the best! Check out some easy winter tips below and see how it can help you.

Create Storage

In the garage, basement or attic, there’s usually always a way to improve storage and free up a few square feet. With some new shelving, cabinets or hooks, you might be able to elevate a few items and create more space for other things you need at home. Try this in areas where you seasonally swap things out so you have ample space when you need it and when you move things around, it’s easy to do as well!

Snow Protection

Thinking about keeping yourself safe, a shovel and rock salt is usually the first pair of items that most would opt for. Also consider laying out a large tarp on your main walkway before a storm. Once it’s held down at the corners, wait for the snow to accumulate and then pull it up afterwards! The result is no snow/ice and more importantly, no slipping!

Maintenance

At the end of the day, the best things in life save you money, or are free. With scheduled maintenance on heating elements and other components in your home, you can not only save money in the long term, but your systems running efficiently means no breaking down and no repair — which otherwise would’ve been spent!
