Creating A Game Room

According to interior designers, a game room sounds like a good idea in theory. But at the end of the day, homeowners often regret this renovation idea. Having a purpose-built space, like a gaming room, isn’t always the best move.

It limits how the room can be used and doesn’t increase the value of your home in any way if you decide to sell it. Experts estimated that a game room costs about $4,500 to create. Consider if it’s really worth it.

If you really want to add more value to your home, we recommend undertaking a siding replacement instead. The siding of a house is among the most noticeable things, and it’s something that needs to remain sturdy and appealing.

Replacing siding can cost anywhere from $4,500 to $15,000, depending on the materials you use, and has a higher return on investment should you consider selling.
