The best time to do a home renovation is after actually getting a new home. Yes, it won’t be as much a RE-novation as it will be a “novation”, but it is the ultimate time for such a work. When you can finally do that decoration you have always wanted and before unpacking all the things that will eventually get in your way and without all the rubbish removal that renovations entail. There are certain things you need to take in mind when undergoing such a decoration, and they will be shared, but the main thing to remember is that you should be in no hurry to do it. Sacrificing a little comfort for the future ultimate comfort is no big deal. And here is what you should do when planning to decorate the house after moving:
Plan First, Do Later
You can start planning for the decoration as soon as you are done with your moving checklist. Know what you want and know what you need for the new house. After all your first priority is to feel happy and relaxed in your new home. Make a scheme and do the measurements and make a plan for what goes where before you go. This way you will do it faster and there will be no need to sacrifice time standing around unpacked boxes and wondering where to put their contents. Do the designing first and then call the moving van to take your things there.
Do It One Room at a Time
When you do start the designing, don’t start opening boxes and placing their contents in the specific rooms. What you want to do is label the boxes when packing them and then endeavouring to place all the specific room related boxes in that room and unpack them there. That way you will have an order in which to do it and an organisation to make it all much easier for you. You do not have to burden yourself with chaotic decorating, just stick to the plan above and do it a room at a time, otherwise you are simply inviting chaos.
Go from Big to Small
When decorating, there is another sort of order, and that is the size order of the decor. Always start with the big items such as furniture, and go smaller and smaller, till you get to the Christmas figurine that has to go on the fireplace in the living room. Keeping this order will also ease the decoration process and will help you – with a properly planned design – to bring in everything in an orderly fashion while not wasting time moving the smaller things to fit the bigger ones. Doing it the right way will get the job done twice as fast. Once all is done, just call the rubbish removal London has to offer and take away everything else.
With this the decoration process should go smooth and fast, and if properly planned, it will save you money. There are many benefits to doing full remodelling after moving house and bringing in the changes you have always wanted plays a big part in that. Your priority in this matter is to have a plan and stick to it when the moving van comes over.
