Home Improvements Become Popular With Over 50s

The on-going slump in the housing market has encouraged many homeowners to invest in home improvements as they look to make their property more attractive to buyers. However, there is a generation of people who are perfectly happy with where they live and are putting their savings towards home improvements to bring them up-to-date.

According to a study conducted by Saga, more than 3.7 million people over the age of 50 may well invest a significant amount of money into updating their property within the next 12 months. The rooms most likely to be improved are the kitchen and bathroom, though 10% of those surveyed intend to get an extension built to accommodate guests.

Conservatories in Carlisle are extremely popular amongst the over 50s as many people within that age bracket may have taken early retirement and therefore have more time on their hands to relax in the home. The conservatory is the perfect place to put your feet up and admire everything going on around you as it will be placed within close proximity of your back garden.

Yes, a conservatory can be a significant financial investment, but when you consider how much use you can get out of it and the many different ways in which you can use it, it somehow justifies its cost and gives you extra incentive to buy one.

Due to the inclusion of double glazing in Carlisle within a contemporary conservatory, it also means that it can be utilised at any time of the year so you are certain to get your money’s worth out of it.

Planet South Lakes is the favoured choice of home improvement company for thousands of over 50s within Cumbria and North Lancashire seeking a brand new conservatory.
