WHAT'S GOING ON
A look into news, trends and changes in the industry
Asbestos Changes Impact Home Renovators
Asbestos started off as a commonly used building material in the second half of the 20th century, because of its heat, fire and noise resisting properties. After numerous claims workers becoming ill from lung diseases throughout the years, regulations began to tighten and the import of asbestos in NZ was banned in 2016, however many homes built prior to the year 2000 still contain the toxic substance.

Home is where the extension is
Many home owners are choosing to extend their homes in Cambridge driven by Cambridge having the fastest increase in average property price of any local authority in the UK - At Refresh Renovations, we specialise in working with homeowners in Cambridge and surrounding areas to help them to extend their homes and make the most of the space they have available to them.
More space, your way
Estate agents are reporting that in the last 12 months stock availability slowed, with fewer properties coming on to the market, while house prices rose less quickly, due in no small part to the ongoing Brexit negotiations. Overall, it appears that recent house price rises are attributable more to a shortage in supply than an upturn in buyer demand.
