Multi Purpose Furniture

Wall Removals 

Removing non load-bearing walls and opening the space up can have a significant impact on the spaciousness of your home. Make sure that you get professional advice to assess which walls in your house can be removed before hammering it down yourself! 

Painting and Decorating Choices

Neutral and light colours are great in giving a spacious feeling to a space, avoid using dark colours as that will really close down your space and have the opposite feeling. 

Natural Light 

First figure out which parts of your house are in direct contact with the sun through sunrise to sunset time. After spotting the light catching areas, you can start to place large windows, glass roofs and glass doors in those areas to catch as much of the beautiful natural light as possible. You will be suprised with how much your space transforms with this change.

Key factors to consider when choosing the right team for your infrastructure project:

Accessibility to the Services

Is the chosen team close to your location? This may affect the amount of time spent on the project based on long commutes.
