As home renovation projects continue to rise, leading online supplier IronmongeryDirect’s expertly curated range products makes it easy for the trade to get everything they need to respond to an expected growth in demand.
Renovation spend has surged in the past three years, according to Houzz, the online community online platform for home remodelling and design. Its most recent 2024 UK Houzz Home study which polled more than 1,700 respondents, has revealed that median renovation spend has increased by 13% since 2020, with bathrooms being the most popular interior room that homeowners are looking to update.
On the latest data, Kelly Wing, Senior Category & Direct Sourcing Manager at IronmongeryDirect commented, “The research from Houzz really reflects our own experiences at IronmongeryDirect where we have seen continued demand for bathroom solutions, particularly as this type of project offers an appealing opportunity for homeowners looking to create a personal sanctuary and add some design flair.”
IronmongeryDirect offers a range of relevant products suitable for a simple refresh, through to a complete renovation with everything from cabinet and door hardware to accessories and mirrors. The exclusive Altro designer bathroom range for example, encompasses a stunning range of towel rails and hooks in a wide choice of finishes including stainless steel, polished chrome, gun metal and matt black.
When it comes to bathroom cabinets, the stainless steel Croydex Avon cabinet with mirrored glass door and slimline design is ideal for small spaces and it comes fully assembled for ease of install.
The 2024 Houzz Home report further revealed that outdoor projects have also seen a considerable rise in popularity, with lighting the most commonly updated outdoor system.
From functional lighting to illuminating areas after dark and providing security, to using lighting to highlight architecture and zone areas, IronmongeryDirect has a noteworthy exterior lighting range that can meet the brief. The collection includes the Forum Zink Lens, a die-cast aluminium up and down wall light in a sleek anthracite grey finish, and the decorative Hampstead Festoon LED hanging lights which features 20x 3000K golf ball bulbs in either a warm white opal or clear finish.
Also available is the Altro Glass Panel Outdoor Wall Lantern Light, with a box shaped body made from durable stainless steel and a bevelled glass diffuser, it’s the ideal finishing touch for any porch or exterior wall. Adding a weatherproof switch, such as the Knightsbridge 20AX 2 gang, 2-way switch with LED, to the installation makes it easy to control the lighting.
Kelly concluded, “it is our priority to provide customers with quality products that can meet every type of design brief and demand. As the Houzz research revealed that over 90% homeowners called on professional services in 2023 to undertake their renovation, tradespeople can be confident in completing any project with our huge range of over 18,000 products and flexible delivery options to meet busy schedules,including free next day delivery and click and collect from 6,500 pick up points across the UK.”
