Posted on June 2, 2016

Home improvement is always important if you want to keep your home safe from any exterior and interior dangers. With the right tips and tricks, you can make your home a safe fortress that’s foolproof to troublesome accidents. Proper maintenance and awareness is the best habit so make sure to practice it. Also, always take note of your situation in order to complement your home improvement methods. From senior citizens to toddlers to rowdy pets, you can always adjust depending on different situations.

Here are some home improvement tips to keep your home safe.

  1. Remove objects that can make you slip
    Children, adults, and senior citizens alike can trip or slip to anything that’s cluttered on the floor. Always maintain a clean home by arranging the objects around the house, make sure that nothing is lying needlessly on the ground like miniature furniture or debris.
  1. Add more lighting
    Proper Lighting can prevent any mishaps from happening around the house. Make sure to have proper home improvement by placing extra lights around the dark places of your house or to places that are frequently walked on. Place proper lighting on staircases to prevent trips and slips. Placing light switches at convenient places is a good addition. Lastly, go for LED lights in order to conserve energy and to prevent your electricity bill from rising.
  1. Go for stronger windows
    Invest in windows that are glass toughened. In the Philippines, you’ll never know if there are burglars prowling about, so stronger glass will prevent outside forces from smashing through. It’s not the cheapest option for budget-minded people, but you definitely get added benefits. Also, try to get energy efficient windows to save money and energy because they promote better heat insulation
  1. Brighter colors are better
    Paint your home interiors with bright colors so you can easily spot them. Also, by adding bright furniture, the chances of bumping or crashing into them will lessen. Try colors like Clove Pink or Egg Yolk as these colors not only add brightness but they also make your home interior design look visually appealing. You can also make your interior space gloss beautifully with Island Prima for a more visually appealing look.
  1. Add cushioning and railings
    if you have animals at home, it’s better to have rubber cushioning on furniture. This prevents the wear and tear that could happen if you’re pet loves to gnaw at things. Also, the railings will greatly help senior citizens course through your house. Place them in the challenging portions of the home like the stairs in order to add assistance.
