  Create the illusion of higher ceilings with window treatments. All you have to do is place your window treatments higher to make your ceilings appear higher.
  
  When hiring a contractor, you have to keep track of everything that you do with that professional. Contractors may not always do this for you, so don't assume that they will. Save all the contracts and invoices that have anything to do with your project. This will help you as well as help the contractor stay focused on your current task.
  
  If you are offered a discount because you pay in cash, don't do it. What will you do if he simply runs off with your money? You'll have no way of proving it.
  
  Make sure you get the right measurements for blinds before purchasing or installing them. You might have trouble installing the blinds properly, if you take the wrong measurements for the windows. There are many sizes of blinds and some go on the interior while others go outside of the window.
  
  If you'd like to improve your home's energy efficiency levels, place weather stripping by your doors and windows. Hardware stores feature this fix relatively cheap, and it seals air in and out, thus boosting the effectiveness of your home's heating and cooling. It will also make those cold nights a whole lot less chilly indoors.
  
  You should dust your entire home once a week. Dust can easily accumulate in only a few day and create allergy problems for anyone. If you clean your home accessories you will rid yourself of bugs and the dirt!
  
  If you replace windows with ones which are more efficient, you can save money and get a better looking window. You will be rewarded with substantial savings on your heating and cooling bills.
  
  In the bathroom it is important for any caulk to be in good shape. Once a year check the caulk around your sink and bathtub. When moisture gets into walls, it can cause damage and encourage the formation of unhealthy mold and mildew. Failing caulking is an easy way for water to get inside walls. If the holes are not sealed quickly, water can leak through and cause the floor below to rot. Before applying the new caulk, remove all of the old caulk. Next, remove all built-up moisture from the area. This is vital if the new caulking is going to adhere properly and end up being waterproof.
  
  It can be hard to find inspiration, sometimes. Though you may have gotten some great ideas here, be cautious in your approach. An accidental misstep in an ill-planned home improvement project can put you out of your house for a night or two, or even make the place unlivable for an extended period. You'll be able to execute well-thought-out projects from the planning stage to the end if you make use of the tips you've read in this article.
