June 2025 Home Renovation & Construction Archive – Tips, Costs & Guides

June was packed with practical advice for anyone tackling a remodel, a new build, or just keeping the yard tidy. Below you’ll find a quick rundown of every article we published, grouped by what you’re most likely looking for right now.

Top Home Renovation Guides

We started the month with "Top Value‑Boosting Home Renovations: What Really Pays Off", a straight‑to‑the‑point look at upgrades that actually increase resale value. Forget the hype—kitchen remodels, bathroom updates, and adding energy‑efficient windows topped the list.

If you’re just getting started, our piece "First Step in Renovating a House: Where to Start for Real Results" breaks the overwhelm into a simple checklist: set a realistic budget, get permits sorted, and hire a reliable contractor before picking paint colors.

Speaking of kitchens, the "Kitchen Fitting Cost" article details every cost driver—labour rates, cabinet style, appliances, and hidden fees like disposal. You’ll learn how to compare quotes without getting blindsided.

Bathrooms can drain your wallet fast. In "Most Expensive Part of a Bathroom Remodel" we showed that plumbing and premium tiles are the big spenders, and offered tips to keep the budget in check, like re‑using existing fixtures when possible.

Construction & Outdoor Essentials

New‑build buyers wondered, "What Comes With a New Build?" Our guide listed standard inclusions—foundation, framing, basic finishes—and highlighted upgrade areas that often get overlooked, such as insulation and warranty extensions.

Roofing costs can be confusing, so we published two pieces. "Roofers Charge Per Square" explains why material type, pitch, and region affect the price per 100 sq ft, and warns about hidden add‑ons like ventilation. Then "How to Negotiate the Price of a New Roof" walks you through a step‑by‑step negotiation plan, from reading the estimate to timing your request for the best deal.

For the lawn lovers, "Lawn Mowing Prices" breaks down what most people actually pay, the factors that shift the price (size, frequency, equipment), and how to avoid surprise fees. Pair that with "What Does a Landscaper Actually Do?", which demystifies a landscaper’s daily tasks—from design concepts to hardscape installation—so you know what to expect when you hire one.

Our commercial readers got the lowdown in "Commercial Project Meaning". The article clarifies the different types of commercial builds, key regulatory steps, and why early planning saves time and money.

Finally, we warned homeowners about foundation issues in "Foundation Crack: What Happens If You Don't Fix It?". Ignoring a crack can lead to water infiltration, structural movement, and costly repairs later. Spot the signs early and act fast.

That’s the June roundup. Each article is short, practical, and ready to help you make smarter decisions on your next project. Whether you’re planning a big remodel or just curious about the cost of a new roof, you’ll find a clear answer here.
