Fix Structural Problems First
Deal with structural problems in a room first. Problems such as damp, roof damage or subsidence need to be sorted before you start decorating the room as you’ll have to redo the work to sort the problem if you’ve decorated around it and it gets worse.
Sort the Rooms You Use Every Day
We would recommend completing the rooms you use the most first. This would mean completing the kitchen and bathrooms first as these are the rooms of the house that you use the most, and if you were to leave them until last then the time it would take to complete the rest of the house could mean months of builders materials arriving at your front door, with associated chaos and pressure on your budget.
Think About Resale Value
If you’re planning to sell your home within a few years then some rooms are going to return more than others when renovated. A new kitchen or an additional bathroom are two of the best rooms to renovate as they add far more value than a newly decorated spare room. Ensure that the sequencing of the rooms that you decide to renovate are made early on in the process so you’re not wasting money on rooms that aren’t going to increase the value of your home.
Plan the Order of Trades
The order of the trades is also important. Typically plumbing and electricians need to carry out their work before the walls can be plastered. Then the floors can be covered with new carpet or laminate before the final decorating.

Know Your Rights Before You Start
Some work will require planning permission or be subject to Building Regulations. If you are unsure of your rights and considerations when improving your home, it is worth reading up before embarking on any work, especially any structural or load-bearing work.
So remember a good order to complete your renovation will save you a lot of money so invest some time in a good plan before spending money on any work.
