Looking to renovate your home? Our home improvement loans offer flexible terms to finance your dream project with ease.
A home improvement loan, sometimes referred to as a home renovation loan, allows you to borrow money to fund upgrades or modifications to your property. This could include anything from installing a new kitchen and updating appliances to making accessibility adjustments.
While these loans are marketed as a way to finance home renovations, they often function similarly to personal loans, meaning the funds may not always be restricted solely to property improvements. However, lenders may have some conditions regarding how the money can be used.

Home improvement loans come in two main types, each with its own advantages and risks:
Unsecured Personal Loans – Best suited for smaller renovation projects, these loans allow you to borrow a set amount without using your home as security. While they typically come with higher interest rates than secured loans, they carry much less risk. If you struggle with repayments, your home won’t be at risk.
Secured Loans – Designed for larger-scale renovations, secured loans let you borrow more, usually starting from £25,000. However, this type of loan is backed by your property, meaning missed repayments could put your home at risk.
If you’re considering borrowing a significant sum and are leaning towards a secured loan, it’s crucial to weigh up the risks. In many cases, remortgaging to release equity could be a more cost-effective and lower-risk alternative. Before making a decision, be sure to explore all options and seek professional advice where needed.

Eligibility criteria vary between lenders, but generally, you need a good credit score, a stable income, and in some cases, a certain level of equity in your property.
You can use a home improvement loan for a variety of projects, including kitchen and bathroom renovations, home extensions, roofing, flooring, and improving energy efficiency.
Some home improvement loans are secured, requiring collateral such as your property, while others are unsecured and do not require any security.
Approval times can vary, but typically, it takes a few days to a couple of weeks, depending on the lender and the complexity of your application.
Many lenders allow early repayment, but it’s important to check for any associated fees or penalties before doing so.
The amount you can borrow depends on factors such as your income, credit history, and the lender’s policies. Fennel Financial can help you determine the best options based on your financial situation.
