For many homeowners, the loft is not a utilised living space but where miscellaneous boxes of unwanted clutter wind up. But if you desire to reclaim your loft space and finally convert it into that additional living area, spare room, home cinema, or cosy retreat, we have compiled some tips for decluttering your loft ahead of renovating it.
Our building company also offers full property renovations, loft conversions, garage conversions, home extensions, Cedral cladding installations, and more. Please contact us today for more information about any of our above services in Hove and the nearby areas. Read on for our decluttering tips and tricks here.
We undertake loft conversions in Hove and the surrounding areas, upgrading them to leave homeowners satisfied! But we know the clearing process can feel daunting before we begin our work. So, here are some top tips to help get you started:
Talk to us about the possibilities of converting your loft space. Let this motivate you to begin your decluttering journey towards that transformed upper room.
Envision what you want your new loft to look like without the clutter. Ask yourself how you want to utilise the loft space.
Going in all decluttering guns blazing will make you more likely to get overwhelmed and give up mid-way. Instead, we recommend you tackle one designated area at a time each week. This consistency is sure to see you through.
In addition to our building contractors, who can offer professional advice, you can receive support from friends and family. Ultimately, know you’re not alone in the process. External accountability will keep you going.
Having a system helps to organise the clutter and categorise what stays and what goes at a quicker pace. This helps you to feel more satisfied as progress is being made.
Find a charity to donate items to. It can be difficult to let go of items, so finding sustainable and ethical means of letting these things go will greatly contribute to your state of mind and the community in a positive way.
The above tips will also be useful for preparing other areas of your property for renovation. Our building company undertakes garage conversions, mansard conversions, Cedral cladding installations, home extensions, rear extensions, complete property renovations and more.
With the above tips in mind, nothing helps with decluttering like browsing for new, replacement furniture and features of the yet-to-be-converted loft space. Taking your focus away from the clutter and more on the possibilities of future utilisation of this space can make all the difference to the process.
We feel that it is important to really envision the benefits of an end goal. This extends to the rest of your property, too. Whatever the property renovation goals, it all starts with a little decluttering.
