Top Tips for Home Improvements this Jubilee Bank Holiday Weekend
There’s nothing like a Bank Holiday weekend to renovate or redecorate your home. Whether it’s a new project or an old one you’ve been meaning to complete, the breaks in between street parties and celebrations this coming Jubilee Bank Holiday weekend is the perfect opportunity to tick tasks off your to do list.
Repaint your house
The first thing visitors and even prospective buyers will see when they come to your home is the front façade. The simple act of tidying your paths, repainting walls, fences, and gates is a great way to give your home a new lease of life in very little time and with very little financial outlay.
Revamp your garden
If you’re planning to host a BBQ this Jubilee weekend or even next, small changes to your garden can make a world of difference and be achieved very quickly. Adding some new plants, mowing your lawn, and tidying up is one way to achieve this, but the addition of new outdoor lighting can bring a new lease of life to your outdoor spaces, and the addition of purpose-designed outdoor switches and sockets can make your time outdoors easier, safer, and stress-free.
Swap to smart lighting
Smart lighting is a straightforward, elegant and truly customisable home lighting solution. Smart lighting has become increasingly more mainstream in recent months and years, meaning now, the possibilities are endless. If you need more than just smart lighting, you can even complement your installation with smart indoor sockets, smart outdoor sockets, and even handy smart adaptor plugs if changing the sockets themselves isn’t possible.

Update your switches and sockets
The simple act of swapping out the switches and sockets in your home for new, fresh ones can make a world of difference. Whether it’s new light switches for your living room, a replacement cooker switch for the tired one in your kitchen or a new shaver socket for your bathroom, the wide range of switches and sockets from The Electrical Counter is sure to contain the perfect switches and sockets for you.
Upgrade to USB sockets
Whether you’ve found yourself working from home more and need the connectivity or are just fed up with needing to unplug your phone charger to use the fan, upgrading to USB sockets can make a world of difference. Brands such as BG, Knightsbridge and Scolmore all offer a wide and conclusive range of USB sockets, with options available that support fast charge, type C and even handy single-size plates with four separate USB ports.
