Time to plan your 2025 home improvements with Safe Local Trades

With 2025 already underway, why not include your home – which has been working hard for you all year – in your resolutions?

Whatever the task – big or small – a few tweaks to some major revamping can bring your home right back up to scratch.

So, whether a fancy new kitchen, swish new bathroom, swanky garden makeover or just a spruce up here and there, planning your home improvements early is key to avoiding disappointment.

While Safe Local Trades has members across many disciplines; painting and decorating, plastering, electrician, kitchen / bathroom fitting, carpentry, handyman, carpet / upholstery cleaners, window/conservatory fitting etc, many are already reporting bookings several months ahead.

It is the case with many tried and tested traders that they will be busy, so don’t delay in getting in touch to secure a slot. Unfortunately, the majority of professions may not be able to start work within a couple of weeks of your enquiry. 

Some projects, like a new kitchen for example, may be subject to a longer lead in time; there is the quote to agree, designs to finalise, products to order and then securing theavailability of a great kitchen-fitter. 

Equally, if you are intending to sell your home, then time is of the essence if you require some property pick me ups to stay ahead of the game. 

But what do you have planned for the New Year? 

Here are a few jobs to think about as we head towards 2025. 

• Flooring - most things get worn out or look tired eventually, and carpets and flooring are no exception. Replace them or give them a new lease of life with a deep clean.
• Painting and decorating – make 2025 the year you give your home a bright, fresh look.
• Home security - protect your property with CCTV or intruder surveillance / security alarm systems.
• Garden landscape and maintenance – think ahead to the summer months give your garden a spring makeover and get your project booked in now to beat the rush.
• Extending your home - whether you desire a conservatory to relax in or a new home office or study.
• Bathroom or kitchen makeover – from just changing taps to a full renovation, upgrading these ‘key’ rooms in your home can make such a huge difference.
