In last month’s poll we wanted to find how many of you had plans to improve your static caravan or holiday lodge over the summer – and what type of work those plans involved.<\/p>\n

We gave you twelve “home” improvement plans to choose from this time, ranging from minor work for things like interior decorating and gardening, to bigger projects such as building outbuildings and underfloor insulation.<\/p>\n

There can only be one winner!<\/h2>\n

35%<\/strong> of you got in touch to say you plan on updating furniture and soft furnishings. The second most popular choice was decking with 20% of the final vote – why not, it’s summer after all!<\/p>\n

What do make of the results?<\/h2>\n
