Home renovation is more than aesthetic updates—it’s an opportunity to enhance comfort, efficiency, and value. For homeowners in Kenora and the surrounding region, 2025 brings exciting design trends and strategies. At Hughesman Homes, we combine local insight with craftsmanship to guide your renovation journey.

Renovation Trends to Watch in 2025

Open-concept transformations

Knocking down non-loadbearing walls to open up kitchens and living areas remains popular. The sense of flow, light, and connection between spaces adds usable value.

Sustainable upgrades & energy efficiency

Insulation upgrades, triple-pane windows, LED lighting, and heat pumps are trending. These improvements reduce utility bills and make your home more comfortable year-round.

Custom woodworking as focal points

Built-in shelving, accent millwork, floating staircases, and custom cabinetry add artistry and uniqueness. Hughesman Homes is known for blending functional carpentry with personalized touches.

Outdoor-indoor integration

Bigger windows, sliding doors, and deck extensions help blur boundaries between interior and nature. Especially in lake country, views are precious.

Finishing touches & modern materials

Matte black hardware, natural stone, large format tiles, and mixed textures are in vogue. Careful finishing—trim, soffits, lighting—makes a renovation feel polished and complete.
