5 Cool Home Improvement Projects to Consider for 2025

Australians love to carry out improvements in their home, which makes life more comfortable as well as adding value to the property. If you are thinking about this year and what projects to embark upon, here are some cool home improvement ideas to consider for 2025.

  1. Build a bar on your deck – Ideal for entertaining, you can build a timber bar in one corner, with a few spirit bottles, a few bar cabinets and barstools. You can set up a draught beer dispenser and pull your friends a beer when they visit. Check out the many free resources online that help you with the design, while essential bar furniture can be found from a leading Australian company. There are sure to be YouTube videos on how to build a bar, which demonstrates step by step, the process of creating an attractive bar where you can enjoy your favourite drink while admiring the sunset.
  2. Fitted wardrobes – Those old wardrobes are nearing the end of their life and designing and building fitted wardrobes is the solution. You could use an entire wall and ask a local carpenter to design and build the unit. Mirrored doors complete the project; you choose the timber and fittings and this is a 2-3 day job for a single tradesman. You will also gain some floor space, as well as having storage space for shoes, hats, underwear, spare bedsheets and anything else you want to keep in the bedroom.

  3. Create a mancave – If you have a spare room, why not turn it into a mancave? A large flat-screen TV, home theatre system and all the things you need to indulge in your passion, which might be online gaming or watching TV series on Netflix. As the room isn’t being used, you can take your time with this project, starting with painting the walls, installing blinds and acquiring furniture.
  4. Renovate the bathroom – Bathrooms are heavily used and after a few years, renovation is recommended; you could add a walk-in shower or remove the bath and replace it with a shower. Google Images can show you bathroom designs to give you some inspiration and you can save money by doing the work yourself; all you need is a little knowledge and a good toolkit to create a bathroom with a touch of luxury.
  5. Replacement windows – Bespoke double-glazed windows with aluminium frames bring you high insulation to slash your energy bills, plus they offer sound insulation, while also boosting the value of the property. Window companies typically offer an unconditional 10-year warranty, which is a reflection of the quality. Transform the exterior with stylish made-to-measure windows that are maintenance free and this acts as a deterrent to burglars.
