Home extensions are a great way to increase the size of living areas and reinvent your existing space, and there are plenty of things to think about when you're planning one. However, one thing you might not have considered is adding skylights, and that's a shame since skylights and home extensions are a great combination.
Here are just four reasons why it makes sense to add skylights to your extension.
If you have a set of French doors in your home or are planning to have doors of this kind installed, you should ensure that their panes are double-glazed. Here are two reasons why.
Double-glazed doors are less likely to break
One reason to get French doors with double-glazed windowpanes is that, in comparison to single-glazed doors, they're very robust and won't break as easily. This is important to note because if, for example, you have children who like to play ball games indoors (even if they're not supposed to) or on the patio to which your French doors lead, then having doors that won't shatter if they're struck by a football will not only spare you the expense of having new panes fitted, but will also mean that your kids will be less likely to get grazes or cuts as a result of the windowpanes shattering, if or when this happens.
If you have purchased a used car recently, you might have a few things on your "to-do" list. You may need to go through the process of registering your vehicle and putting a license plate on it. You might also need to have certain repairs done to it, or you might be planning on having the oil changed. If you haven't scheduled an appointment to have the windows tinted on this new-to-you vehicle, then you should schedule this appointment soon.
