What are secured home improvement loans?

Home improvement loans allow you to borrow money to fund renovation projects on your property. You’ll then repay the loan in instalments, plus interest, over a set period. With a secured home improvement loan, you’ll be securing the loan against your property.

People typically use these loans to create more space. It’s also common to use home improvement financing to add property value by funding upgrades that buyers would be willing to pay more for.

What are the benefits of a secured house improvement loan?

A home improvement loan is an investment in your property. You could put yourself in a better position to sell when the time is right – or save on the cost of moving by enhancing what you already have.

Choosing a secured home improvement loan has other benefits too. Using your property as security puts less focus on your credit score, so you could find it easier to get approved if you’ve been turned down for an unsecured loan in the past.

Offering security could also help you access higher loan amounts, making this type of loan ideal for larger renovation projects.

What are the risks of home improvement loans?

While we conduct an assessment to ensure each loan is affordable, borrowing money always comes with a degree of risk. With a secured home improvement loan, if you repeatedly fail to make your agreed repayments you could put your home at risk of repossession.

Questions you may have...

What can I use a home improvement loan for?

Your home is your biggest asset – and getting a loan could help you make the most of it. Below are a few ways people use our secured home improvement loans.

Extensions

Creating an extra room with a side or rear extension not only improves the amount of space you have and benefits everyone living in it, but it could increase the value of your home.

Alternatively, you may choose to extend upwards or downwards by converting your loft or cellar into another fantastic utility space or bedroom.

Kitchen improvements

The kitchen is the heart of the home. If you have an outdated kitchen in need of a makeover, we could help you finance your improvement plans.

Whether you want a new set of cupboards and worktops or a total refurbishment including new appliances, we could help you find a loan to make it happen.

Building a conservatory

Conservatories can breathe life into any home by bringing the outside inside. As well as creating additional living space and allowing you to enjoy the garden whatever the weather, conservatories can add property value to your property.

Install a decking area or patio

Investing in a decking area or patio can raise the appeal and value of a property by creating an additional entertaining space outdoors, even if your garden is relatively small.

Convert an outbuilding

If you are lucky enough to have an unused garage or outbuilding, it could be worth considering a conversion. However, think twice about this if you only have one outbuilding that is already in use. For example, converting the only garage into an office or extra room may decrease the value of your home, particularly if the potential buyers are car owners.

Replace windows with double-glazing

Getting a home improvement loan to install double-glazing will make your home more energy-efficient and save money on your heating bills each month. Double-glazed windows also add greater security and are far better at cancelling out noise than a single layer.

Central heating

If your home doesn’t have central heating, or if your boiler has seen better days, you can use a home improvement loan to completely re-fit a new energy-efficient central heating system.

If you’re looking for a loan to make any of these improvements to your home, contact us. We’re happy to talk you through your loan options over the phone.
