Best RV Renovations To Consider

If you’re thinking about renovating your RV and you want to get the most bang for your buck, here are the renovations I would recommend.

Painting the Walls

If your RV has old and ugly walls, this will age your RV so fast. This is the first thing I would recommend you update when you want to renovate your RV and make it look nice.

Before you paint, make sure you understand how to paint walls, and don’t just try to paint over the wall as it is. Some people also decide that they would rather put wallpaper up, too, so that is another option that makes all of the difference.

Putting Curtains In Your RV

Some people like the look of the valances that come in RVs. I think they look pretty nice, but if you are crafty and can put curtains in, it does make it look a lot homier.

Updating the Countertops

A lot of RV countertops are anything but attractive. If you have an older RV, it’s even worse. Just like updating the countertops in a stick and bricks home makes it look fresh and updated, it’s the same when you do this in an RV.

Redoing the Cabinets

Some people want to take out their RV cabinets and replace them, but you’d be surprised how much of a difference painting your cabinets will make. You also might want to put different pulls on them.

Conclusion

If you’ve been wrestling with the thought of renovating your RV, maybe you feel a little more motivated now. If that’s the case, go ahead and get started. Make sure to drop back in and tell us how it went, or follow us on social media and let us know there.
