5 Finishing Touches To Pay Attention to When Renovating Your Home

When undertaking a home renovation, it’s easy to think that the most important aspects of the renovation are going to be the biggest, in-your-face elements.

But, it’s actually the small finishing touches that make your space feel complete and bring your vision to life!

So, what finishing touches you should focus on? Here’s our list of the 5 most important finishing touches for your home renovation.

1. Lighting

Lighting is not one of the places you want to skimp out on when it comes to your Edmonton renovations. A great chandelier or other light fixture can be exactly what you need to pull the room together and pull off the aesthetic you are hoping for.

2. Light Switches 

Speaking of lights, don’t be afraid to change up your light switches and their plates - venturing away from the traditional white to something more fun, such as a design or finish that compliments the room’s colour pallet!

3. Faucets

Don’t underestimate the power of a good-looking faucet! From the shape to the colour and the finish, the kind of faucets you choose can pull together your entire bathroom or kitchen design!

4. Accent Walls

Although this may seem like a “bigger” small touch, an accent wall can be just what a room needs to feel complete. Accent walls can be as simple as painting the wall with a statement colour, or as intricate as adorning the wall with wood paneling or other pleasing designs.

5. Front Door

Last, but not least — your front door. Front doors are important to consider, especially when doing an exterior project as a part of your Edmonton remodel. Your front door is the first thing visitors see when they visit your home, and they are a focal point in your home’s curb appeal. A blue door may make your home appear subdued and calming, while a yellow door could signal that your home is warm and inviting!
