Whether you’re planning a new build, a renovation, a lavish extension or a conversion there are simply hundreds of ways we can help you add finishing touches to your residential construction project.
In this article we explore some of the luxury finishes that will create lasting value without breaking the bank.
Luxury finishes that add value to your residential project
Of course, it’s the vision and show-piece features that draw the attention and create that initial impression.
But, homes are made to be lived in rather than admired from afar, and the touches that make the real difference are the finer details, exquisitely executed.
Natural stone or timber floors
As attractive as modern stick down or click together vinyl floor finishes can be, there’s nothing that offers the unmistakeable feel of genuine luxury than a natural stone or hardwood floor.

Designer paint
Another way to stand out from the rest and create a more personalised living space is to shy away from using contract paint on the walls and opt instead for the rich finish and unique tones offered by designer paint.

Quality tiles
The quality of the tiles used in your bathroom can be just as impressive as opting for a designer bath, shower, basin and toilet. Complement your designer sanitaryware by investing in top quality tiles.

High-quality joinery and ironmongery
Finishing your rooms with high-quality joinery and ironmongery will create a stylish look that sets your project apart, whether it’s a uniquely crafted door, smooth-operating hinges and handles or intricate detailing on your skirtings and architraves.

The true value of the finish
The finish can create a distinctive feel for your much-loved home or it can make sure that your new-build instantly stands out in the eyes of a potential purchaser.
There are many ways to use luxury finishes as a way to set off your development and, with so many brands and suppliers to choose from, Cortec can help guide you to those that best match your aims, aesthetic and budget.
It’s true that premium and bespoke finishes can come at a very high price. But, it’s equally true that there are many ways to create the look you are hoping to achieve without needing to compromise on your vision or break your budget. All of the examples above were created with one eye on style and the other on very closely managed budgets.
