Improving the value of your home

With the current trend towards renewable materials, together with the age-old passion for real wood, at an all-time high, introduce a touch of timber to rejuvenate your home and add value.

New wooden floor

A new wooden floor is a stunning addition to any home and widely appreciated by potential buyers. For maximum impact, install it in the hall; this is normally the first room that any visitor will see and rarely contains much in the way of furniture. Carpets tend to wear or mark quickly. Not only will a solid wood floor look great, while creating the impression of warmth, value and quality, it is a hardwearing solution.  For a plank solution, try Broadleaf's Nuances range; beautiful solid oak in a range of shades, finished with a durable, low maintenance hardwax oil.  For a more luxurious option, try Broadleaf Prime Oak Parquet with a contrasting tramline.

New front door

Ugly entrances, badly fitting doors or styles, which do not complement the style of a property, will instantly detract from its value. A new front door can revamp the whole façade of a house, instantly making it more appealing. In wood, it will also feel warm, solid and secure to any visitor. Broadleaf offers a range of made-to-measure doors in solid oak or exotic hardwood primed for painting. There is a choice of classic designs as well as a bespoke service to match or copy existing doors.

New internal door

Internal doors are often forgotten when planning a design scheme. A door is an item that you touch and move, and the way that it feels is crucial. A cheap, lightweight door with a shoddy handle will create a completely different impression to a well-made, solid feeling one with a tactile, good-quality fitting.  Broadleaf offers a range of beautiful oak doors to suit most requirements.  Broadleaf's plank doors are made-to measure, in the traditional ledge style and finished with complementary period fittings and the panelled doors are available in both cost-effective and beautifully-styled oak veneer and handmade solid oak.

New worktops

Versatile, hardwearing and hygienic, solid wood worktops from Broadleaf are the perfect finishing touch to any kitchen. Available in a wide range of styles and colours, they offer instant warmth and sophistication to any design scheme and, when compared to other natural alternatives, are very cost-effective and easy to install.
