Redecorating your home can be a rewarding way to add value to your house.
Repainting walls, using new wallpaper, adding new lighting and furniture or changing the windows can all transform a room.
Whether you opt for classic or contemporary styles, or whether you live alone or in a busy family house, there a lots of great ways to customise your home.
A key consideration for any DIY project is flooring. Getting the right floor can make a room brighter or more welcoming, can add protection if you have a lot of foot-traffic, and, in some cases, dramatically add value to your house.
Solid wood flooring is a great way to combine many of these in one - with a durable surface, classic, chic look and a range of colours to suit your decoration.
It's important to consider whether to opt for darker or lighter wood, depending on the mood you want to create at home, and shop around to find a grain and style that you like.
And remember it's also worth considering how busy the room will be - solid wood is better for living rooms or lounges than playrooms and kitchens.
