Renovations can make your house feel brand new and give your rooms a new lease of life. However, in the interim between your renovations and your perfect house, there can often be a chaotic amount of mess that can be hard to clear. If you are struggling to look past the mess that renovations can create, these handy tips will help you to get your house back to normal as quickly as possible.

1. Clear Renovation Equipment

Firstly, leftover renovation equipment can often be left forgotten for a matter of months after the work on your house is complete, especially if you do not have excess storage space to tidy the equipment away in. However, you should clear your renovation tools and equipment away as quickly as possible to ensure that your house returns to its normal state. Although you may be tempted to keep spare paint and other materials for your next renovations, you should keep only what you know you will use in the immediate future, and only if you have space for it.

2. Clean Carpets and Furnishing

Even with the correct dustsheets and coverings, carpets and furnishings can often gather a large amount of dust and grime throughout renovations, through everything from muddy boots to plaster shavings. However, this dense amount of dirt can be difficult to remove. In these cases, you should consider hiring a carpeting cleaning service, they have the correct equipment to clean leather, carpets, curtains and even your driveway, meaning that your house can soon look as if there was never any disruption.

3. Ensure Your Possessions are Organised

If you have not done so already, you should create an organisational system for your possessions and ensure that everything has a proper place where it can look tidy, rather than being stacked on desks and even your carpets. This can make a large difference to the appearance of your rooms and ensure that they look clean and tidy, whilst also allowing you to easily maintain them with minimal effort.

4. Invest in Storage Containers

Many modern houses do not have enough storage containers to tidy away all of your possessions. However, creating storage spaces or investing in storage containers can make a large difference in making your house look clean and tidy when having work done, especially if you have had to move many items and furniture from one room. If creating extra storage spaces was not part of your renovations, you should invest in flat-pack or temporary storage containers so that you can tidy away extra possessions during and after the renovations.

5. Utilise Your Loft Space

Additionally, you should also put any furniture or possessions that you do not need daily into your loft or create a loft storage space. Many lofts sit empty and bare, however, lofts make great storage spaces for possessions that you want to keep but do not have room for. Additionally, you should consider utilising your loft space by converting your loft, giving you more space to store your possessions.
