Renovating a Historic Home: What You Should Know

Expect the Unexpected

Keep in mind that the older the home, the higher the chances are of worn-out structures. Unfortunately, this might not be completely evident during an initial walkthrough, only presenting itself once work has begun. This can cause a bit of a delay, requiring adjustments and workarounds, but sometimes you’ll also get pleasant surprises, like old materials hidden by previous renovations that you can still use and incorporate to amp up your home’s character.

You Can Mix and Match

While restoration work has a lot to do with bringing a property back to its former glory, it can also be flexible, incorporating elements from another period to perfectly recreate what you want and need from your home. And you also don’t have to match your home’s interior and exterior. For example, a property can have modern exterior and a Victorian-inspired interior. To tie together the old and the new, the trick is to make sure you are working with reputable experts in home and bathroom renovations.
