Some of the small, but unique, things that can be done to increase the value is cleaning. When you keep things clean, you are helping to keep them functional and repair free.

Bathroom Tiles
If you take your bathroom, for example; by keeping the toilet, sinks, and bath or shower clean, you won’t have to worry about replacing them when they break or fall apart.

Instead of going out and purchasing harsh chemical cleaners, you can use white vinegar and citrus juice to get that professional quality shine and clean smell for your bathroom. This also controls germs and bacteria that grow.

Other things that can increase the value of your home - a new flooring. This can do a great job of raising the value of your home.You can even put a coat of paint, both inside and outside as a value increasing home improvement.

This tile layout idea consists of larger tiles that look like the brick.

There are tiles that are made from recycled glass, which comes in both lighter and darker colors.
These tiles are also sometimes made to mimic metal pieces, which can give your bathroom a slightly cooler feel.

Yet another Bathroom tile layout pattern can be the "Mosiac" pattern.

Bathroom Tile
A mosaic tile layout works best when used in small doses, such as around your mirror or placed around the bathtub. The advantage of using a mosaic tile layout is that you don't need to spend a lot of time worrying about what goes where. You can use any shades that work with the rest of your bathroom and in any size.
Some architects even use several shades of tiles and break those tiles into different pieces to create a unique and interesting pattern.

Kitchen Re-modelling? Some suggestions to make it a comfortable, efficient & fun place as it is one of the most-used areas of the home.

1. There should be separate receptacles for garbage, cans and bottles, and paper and cardboard. Ideally, these containers should be pullout spaces within the  design of the cabinets.
The easiest way to incorporate this green idea is to retrofit the bins into existing kitchen cabinets. These pullout attachments are available at do-it-yourself home-improvement stores.

2. Include deep cabinet drawers or a pullout shelf for items such as pots and pans and other small appliances. Having the small appliances hidden away helps keep the kitchen neat and organized. And it is easier to get to these items with pullout shelves instead of having to dig for them or having to pull them out from standard cupboards or shelves.

3. Sometimes, replacing the hardware on cabinets can give a new look with little expense. The next step up would be replacing the cabinet doors and drawer fronts. Here again, you might be able to do this yourself, but if you can’t, the cost is still low because you aren’t replacing the entire cabinets, only the facades.

Hiring a professional kitchen designer to work with is your best bet or consult Johnson Kitchens.. www.hrjohnsonindia.com
