    1 UPDATE YOUR DOOR

    Upgrading your door can be a simple fix but it’s amazing the impact it can have. Weathered wood covered in peeling paint hints at a house that hasn’t been well cared for, while dated uPVC strips the home of character. If the door is still solid beneath the wear, you can transform it easily by sanding it down, painting it and polishing up the door fixtures. However, a new door could be a good investment for its visual appeal, improved security and energy efficiency. Choose one with glazed inserts or panels and it can light up a dark hall.
