What is the least expensive material for shelves?

• <div><p>If you’re on a tight budget, the least expensive material you can buy for DIY closet shelves is chipboard, a.k.a. particle board. This inexpensive material is made from a pulp of sawdust, resin, and glue that’s pressed together under high temperature and pressure. As you can imagine, it’s not very sturdy and might buckle under your blue jean collection, so you should only use it if you’re storing very light items. </p></div>

Do I need a building permit for a closet?

• <div><p>You may need a building permit to add a closet, depending on the size and kind of work required to install it. The most likely scenario requiring a permit involves changing the structure of the house and performing electrical work for <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/bright-ideas-closet-lighting.htm">closet lighting</a>. A permit can cost between $100 and $450. If you’re installing a smaller reach-in closet, a permit may not be required, but always check with your local municipality and consult a closet designer or builder.</p></div>

Q: How does a built-in closet affect the value of a home?

• <div><p>The addition of a properly installed built-in closet will generally make a home more competitive on the market and increase its sales price. If, however, you are converting an existing room into a walk-in closet, it will likely drive the value downward. The balance between utility and value is hard to get right, but generally speaking, if you add utility with a built-in closet that doesn&rsquo;t detract much from the square footage of the room, then you&rsquo;ll likely add value to your home.</p></div>

Q: Are closet remodels worth it?

• <div><p>Closet remodels can add a significant element of luxury to your home and depending on how you remodel, a lot of functionality that may have been missing. People underestimate how much they use their closet and one that lacks storage space or just becomes a room full of random items can benefit from a remodel in almost all cases. There's a vast range of pricing for closet remodels&mdash;they aren't all expensive. </p></div>

Q: What is the least expensive material for shelves?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re on a tight budget, the least expensive material you can buy for DIY closet shelves is chipboard, a.k.a. particle board. This inexpensive material is made from a pulp of sawdust, resin, and glue that&rsquo;s pressed together under high temperature and pressure. As you can imagine, it&rsquo;s not very sturdy and might buckle under your blue jean collection, so you should only use it if you&rsquo;re storing very light items. </p></div>

Q: How do I prevent closet shelves from sagging?

• <div><p>To prevent sagging, consider both the material and the span of the shelf. Using sturdy materials such as plywood or solid wood can provide better support than particleboard. Additionally, limiting the shelf span to 36 inches or less can reduce the risk of sagging. For longer shelves, incorporating center supports or brackets can offer additional reinforcement.</p></div>
