Keep the room classic white and don't go for anything faddy. Do get a conservatory. A good one will add five per cent to the value of your home. They cost from 10,000 but are real investments - especially if you sell your home in summer. Do fit a security system.
Crime is on everyone's mind and burglaries are on the increase all over Britain.
Spend around 500. Do plant shrubs. By tidying up your borders and adding a splash of colour you can add 1,000 to the value. DON'T skimp on the bathroom and don't use any colour scheme except classic white. Stick to neutral colours - less is more.
