From new flooring to fresh paint, updated hardware, and more, Rent A Dad transformed this room into a modern, functional, and beautiful space. If you’ve been putting off updating a room in your home, this before-and-after will inspire you to take the leap!
The Problem: A Dated, Neglected Space
This room was an addition built nearly 30 years ago, and it showed. Here’s what we were dealing with:
Outdated Aesthetic: The room felt stuck in the past, with old paint, worn-out flooring, and dated fixtures.
Worn Surfaces: The walls, ceiling, and trim were scuffed and faded, while the concrete floor was cold and uninviting.
Lack of Functionality: The room wasn’t living up to its potential, with no TV mount, outdated ceiling fans, and no window treatments.
The Solution: A Complete Room Transformation
At Rent A Dad, we love a good challenge—and this room was no exception. Here’s how we brought it into the 21st century:
New Hardware: We updated the cabinet and door hardware with modern, sleek designs.
Fresh Paint: The walls, ceiling, doors, and trim were painted in a fresh, neutral palette to brighten the space.
Enclosed Blinds: We added enclosed blinds to the exterior doors for privacy and light control.
New Window Blinds: Custom blinds were installed on the windows to match the room’s new aesthetic.
Fireplace Hearth Update: The fireplace hearth was refreshed to become a focal point of the room.
TV Mounting: We mounted a TV for entertainment and convenience.
LVP Flooring: Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) flooring was installed over the bare concrete, adding warmth and style.
Ceiling Fan Upgrade: Outdated ceiling fans were replaced with modern, energy-efficient models.
