Some of the biggest trends in remodeling stem from practical and healthy factors, with some personal creativity thrown in for variety. Here are some of the biggest trends we’ve seen in remodeling this year.
Customized Living Spaces
After being forced to adapt to a “new normal” due to the pandemic, many homeowners still include unique adaptations to their homes and how families use the available space. Many now work from home, so new comfortable office spaces remain in high demand. Now that working from home has become more permanent in many industries, the temporary arrangement has given way to more permanent and roomy spaces.
Spare bedrooms, unused formal dining rooms, basements, and even attic spaces can transform into comfy yet professional office working spaces. Such a renovation provides an adequate area to accommodate necessary office furniture, equipment, and even meeting places and a suitable backdrop for Zoom meetings with team members.
Other custom construction and remodeling projects have included additional storage for families that spend more time at home, a home gym to replace a public gym membership, a home entertainment area, a minibar, and improved kitchen and bathroom spaces to accommodate families at home better.
Remodeling for Energy Efficiency
Families continue to seek ways to save money in the uncertain financial climate in 2023. Investments in energy efficiency means are always popular, but interest has increased.
Many of these remodels include adding insulation, new energy-efficient windows and doors, water- and power-saving appliances, water softeners, and solar power options. These home improvement upgrades generally require the services of a professional for installation, like a remodel plumbing company for the proper installation of water lines and water-saving devices and appliances.
Home Renovation to Create Open Concept Designs
Forced restrictions on travel and socialization through the pandemic caused many homeowners to choose home improvement remodeling projects that allow for more open space within the home to achieve a feeling of freedom. Open floor plans have been popular for several years, but the open concept is being applied on a broader scale.
Some of the more popular choices we have seen include living rooms that extend into outdoor living areas, open-concept walk-in showers and bathing options, and basement entertainment venues with digital media, pool tables, game tables, and more. As families spend more time together, freedom and entertainment at home are more important.
Adding Outdoor Living Spaces
Outdoor living spaces are the new way to get outdoors while saving vacation funds. These remodels range from simply adding a deck and grill to fashionable hardscapes with built-in cooking and food preparation areas, guest seating, ambiance lighting, and entertainment options.
The outdoor fireplace or fire pit, wet bar, comfortable seating, and eating components are the top choices almost every homeowner makes for increasing the usability of outdoor space. Others may even add swimming pools or outdoor hot tubs requiring custom design and remodel plumbing services.
Remodels with Top-Quality Surfacing Materials
Homeowners and families spending more time at home are increasing the quality of those home experiences. This has also meant an uptick in remodels, including new, better-quality surfaces throughout the house. These home improvement steps tend to be more personalized, but most reflect a marked increase in the quality of materials chosen.
New, longer-lasting, aesthetically pleasing flooring options and custom countertops in kitchen remodeling and bathrooms are popular. Some room remodels featured ceiling tiles to add ambiance, while others have stuck with the more practical task of replacing outdoor siding for better insulation and protection.
Kitchen Remodeling
Kitchen remodeling remains popular in Sheboygan County and throughout Wisconsin. Plymouth Plumbing & Heating can handle all your remodel plumbing needs. Our Master Plumbers can work with you to choose and install the latest fixtures, from classic styles to modern looks. Prepare to better accommodate your family and guests with:
- A new island with a sink, stove, or food preparation station
- New appliances (stoves, dishwashers, refrigerators, beverage stations, and more)
- Move around your appliances for seamless transitions between food preparation steps (this may require replumbing some appliances)
By selecting all your faucet options first and choosing the location of your appliances, your kitchen remodeling plumber can configure the remodeling layout around the most essential facilities.
Technological Advances for Remodeling
Adding technology remains a popular option when remodeling any home in 2023, especially with popular “smart home” features that make almost every aspect of living easier, safer, and more convenient. Virtually any element of your home can be programmed or controlled on command from a smartphone app. These include:
- Temperature control
- Appliances
- Lighting
- Room usage
- Power saving
- Locking/unlocking/monitoring/security
- Remote access
- Human health or pet monitoring
- Shades or blinds control
Some homeowners choose to install new radiant heating when adding new flooring. This increases comfort for the family spending more time at home, adds value to the home, and saves energy as a more efficient temperature control system.
