Ideal Holiday Home Renovations Part 2

This is the second part of our mini-series giving you some great ideas about the ideal renovations you could be making right now to your guesthouse or holiday home. It is the best time too, as we have two months of glorious summer before the next prime vacation period of Easter, and the best suppliers and installers of so many home renovations all under one roof – Libra Flooring, is back to work and eager to be of service to you.

So, because we understand that in holiday homes or guesthouses particularly, whatever you install needs to be not only attractive and functional but tough, long-lasting and low maintenance too, here are some more ideas about ideal holiday home renovations – beautiful but tough!

Step up security with stunning shutters

If you felt that you had a security issue during these past holidays but don’t want to install ugly security gates, maintain the elegance of the home with solid security shutters – both very beautiful and extremely effective.

Choose beautiful awnings and save

Awnings are, as we all know a very beautiful addition to any holiday home and excellent for creating great shade, adding to outdoor space usage. What many don’t consider is that they also deflect the sun’s rays, thereby cooling the place and in return decreasing your energy bill by enabling you and your guests to spend less time indoors.

Choose composite decking

Wooden decking is an attractive add-on to any holiday home and also encourages more outdoor usage, but our advice is that if you seek a product that is longer lasting and lower maintenance then choose new composite decking. It also gives you more decorative options as it comes in different colours.

Artificial lawn

One of the best ways to save on time and maintenance for many years to come, while adding beauty to your property, is to swap normal grass for artificial lawn. There may be a greater initial cost but it always looks great, is great for kids and pets and has a packet of water bills and garden maintenance. This is a perfect example of a ‘beautiful but tough’ addition to any holiday home!

Choose the best suppliers and installers of your products!

A final word of advice is, never compromise on your supplier and installers of the products you choose.
