On 16th March 2020 the UK government announced a nationwide lockdown in response to the global Coronavirus pandemic. This meant that all unnecessary contact should cease, and as a result, a lot more people were spending their time at home. Since then, restrictions have been considerably eased but most recently new ones have been put in place, and the amount of time that we, the public, are spending at home and indoors is far greater than prior to lockdown. So we 2020 is the year for home improvements. In this blog we have selected our picks of home improvements for this year. We may be into September, but there’s still plenty of time left to complete those home improvements you’ve been thinking of doing for a while and make the most of the great deals and beautiful tiles available at your local Tile & Stone Gallery showroom.
Outdoor Patios
This summer was definitely not like any other. We saw scorching hot weather while having to be trapped at home. But we don’t think that social distancing should keep you from enjoying the sun. And while the best of the British summer weather may be behind us, there is still time to enjoy what little sunshine we have left. Our first home improvement suggestion for 2020 is a tiled outdoor patio. Enjoy drinks outside with your family, have a bbq or just relax, set up the garden chairs and enjoy some peace and quiet.
Kitchen Renovations
We all know that the kitchen is the heart of the home. With families spending more time together now, more than ever, your kitchen or family area is the busiest it has been in a long time. Add to this the fact that since COVID-19 eating out with friends and family is not as common as before, 2020 is the year to refresh your kitchen and give it a new lease of life.
