Staying In Is The New Going Out According to Ratedpeople.com



As the recession continues to bite, home owners are opting to improve their dining rooms and invite guests for dinner rather than spending money on going out, according to Ratedpeople.com the UK'ss largest match making service for home improvers and recommended tradesmen.



A recent internet survey has revealed that 45% of people are eating more meals at home whilst simultaneously cutting down on the number of takeaways they buy from their local Indian, Chinese or chip shop (52% down), suggesting that the dinner party is back in vogue.



Along with the kitchen, the dining room is very much the heart of the home and in many cases, with a few simple changes can be updated and improved to create to a great room for holding dinner parties and entertaining guests. Decorating the room doesn'st have to be an expensive process either and home owners can transform their dining rooms into an elegant, sophisticated space with simple changes such as a coat of paint, a new table cloth, a rug under the table or even new covers for chair seats.



Ottokar Rosenberger, Sales and Marketing Director of Ratedpeople.com commented: With the recession still on the minds of many people, home owners are choosing to use the money that they usually spend on going out redecorating and investing in their homes. Decorating can be a simple process but if home owners are unsure in the slightest about performing DIY, they should consider employing a professional to do the job to avoid any potentially expensive mistakes.



Indeed DIY mistakes can be extremely costly - something as seemingly simple as hammering in a nail can lead to water pipes being punctured and then potential water damage to walls, floors and ceilings.
