5 Eco-friendly Ways To Renovate Your Bedroom

Your bedroom is your comfort zone. It is a space that you can customize to portray your personality. Since this room is a reflection of your persona, you would definitely want to renovate it in a way that also helps you do your bit towards mother Earth. Decorating this space with the use of eco-friendly materials can help you do so.

Here are a few tips to consider during a home renovation in Edmonton to make sure your bedroom is environment-friendly:

Try Recycled Materials

When you use reclaimed materials such as wood and metal furnishings, you essentially reduce the scale of wastage. You are neither adding to the number of trees being cut down to get wood nor are you utilizing fossil fuel to construct new metals. You can also consider recycled glass for remodeling your bedroom.

Consider Pre-owned Furniture

You may want to zing up your bedroom with shiny new furniture. However, to go the eco-friendly way, you should consider pre-owned furniture. Pre-owned furniture which is well maintained and in a good condition can be a great option to renovate your bedroom in an eco-friendly manner. This not only saves you money but also gives a rustic look to your bedroom. You could also consider polishing or refurbishing this furniture to give it a shiny look.

Consider Cork Flooring

Consider cork flooring for your room instead of a carpet. Cork flooring is highly sustainable in nature. It is harvested without causing any tangible harm to trees. Beyond being environment-friendly, it is comfortable to walk on, fire and insect resistant and hypoallergenic. Take the help of a skilled renovation expert to make sure your cork flooring is installed correctly.

Try Low VOC or VOC-free Paint

VOC stands for Volatile Organic Compound. This substance has a tendency to emit harmful molecules in the air. By opting for a low-VOC or no-VOC paint, you can reduce the release of harmful particles in the air. These paints are also odorless and do not cause irritation to the eyes.

Utilize Solar Energy

Make the most of the sun’s energy. While remodeling your bedroom, get solar water collectors and solar panels installed. These panels will help provide electricity to your room and are a very good option to replace electricity, thereby saving energy and money.

Wouldn’t it be great to do your bit for the Earth and have a newly remodeled bedroom at the same time? Make use of these simple yet efficient methods to renovate your bedroom, the eco-friendly way.
