Renovation season is around the corner. The average house in the northwest corner is 57 years old. If it's time to freshen up your home, consider these renovation ideas.

Kitchen upgrades are sure to impress. Whether it be a full-scale remodel, new countertops, or energy efficient appliances, an updated kitchen is a great way to give your home a face-lift.

Turn the bathroom into a sanctuary. A new tub or walk-in shower, a sleekly designed sink, and new tiling are all great ways to change the look and feel of your bathroom. Make the space inviting and functional to maximize the benefits of your investment.

Hardwood flooring is a plus. Replacing your carpeting with the smooth aesthetic of these floors will give your home new life. You'll also appreciate their ease of cleaning.
