Market opportunity

A resilient and expanding sector

The UK home improvement market is a substantial and resilient sector, valued at over £11 billion in 2024 and forecast to grow toward £16.6 billion by 2033 as homeowners increasingly invest in renovation, energy efficiency and space optimisation.

Globally, the home improvement industry is one of the largest addressable service markets, with total market value approaching USD 900 billion and projected expansion beyond USD 1.3 trillion over the coming decade.

Investment case

Why invest in Lapis Home

The UK home improvement sector is supported by structural demand. Ageing housing stock, regulatory changes around energy efficiency and the continued need to maximise usable living space create sustained opportunity across residential property services.

Lapis Home operates in specialist, practical segments: loft storage systems, residential electrical services and garage transformation. These services are needs-led, compliance-driven and value-enhancing, providing resilience across economic cycles.

Our model combines centralised strategic oversight with brand-level operational execution. This enables scalable growth while maintaining local service quality and customer trust.
