Improvements to a personal residence, not used as a rental or in a business, are not deductible on a tax return.  The cost of the improvements are added to the basis of the home when it is sold.

Hello @onelia25 !

 

To add on to that, you may be able to get some credit if the improvements are considered energy saving.

 

Review the following articles for more info;

Can I claim energy-efficient appliances or energy-saving home improvements?

Where do I enter qualified energy-saving improvements?

 

Hope this helps!
