With the new year quickly approaching, starting to plan projects to improve your home now helps you save money and get the necessary materials. From installing new shower doors to replacing the home's windows, there are many ways you can make the property more comfortable and functional. Below are several ideas to help you come up with a plan.

What Are Some Home Upgrades to Consider in the New Year?

1. Modernize the Bathroom

Adding a touch of luxury to your bathroom makes the space more pleasant and comfortable. One way to do this is by replacing a traditional bathtub with glass shower doors. This creates a sleek, modern aesthetic that is particularly useful in smaller bathrooms, as it allows more light to flow through the space. Instead of having a shower curtain sectioning off the bathroom, the glass shower doors allow light to shine through the area. After this, installing a new, low-profile toilet and modern faucets creates a more inviting ambiance.

2. Replace the Windows & Screens

Outdated windows allow indoor air to escape, forcing your HVAC system to work harder to regulate the interior temperature. This reduces the home's energy efficiency and increases your monthly utility bill. Similarly, broken or ripped screens prevent you from opening and closing the windows safely, potentially allowing pests and debris inside the home. By replacing these features, you protect the property and make it more comfortable.

3. Add Storage Solutions

When you have a big family, finding space to store everyone's belongings can be difficult. If children share a bedroom, the closet and dresser can fill up quickly, which means you may have to leave clothes hanging in a storage room. If you want to create more space for various items, consider installing glass shelves in the bathrooms and bedrooms. For the bathroom, this gives everyone a place to keep their grooming supplies. In the bedroom, you can put toys and decorations on the shelves, opening up the closet.
