Home improvement items sales have surged significantly in recent years and are projected to grow even further. In this article, we’ll explore the top 10 home improvement dropshipping products to sell, focusing on items that meet buyers’ essential needs—not just their wants or passions—to maximize your profit potential.
When we think of “home improvement products,” it’s easy to focus solely on the category’s “fun” side: interior decorations, furniture, and the like. However, the most practical and necessary items are often overlooked. These products not only simplify household chores but also tackle larger improvement projects. Now more than ever, people are spending increased time at home, driving demand for both fun DIY projects and essential renovations. As a result, many are investing in their homes like never before. Let’s seize this opportunity and dive into the best products to capitalize on this trend.
Keep in mind that home improvement is an evergreen product niche!
An evergreen niche or product is not based on a trend, holiday and/or season, or otherwise dependent on an event of some sort. These products always and will always sell, which means you can profit all year round.
Up first on our list is surveillance equipment. This includes cameras, microphones, DVR’s, complete surveillance kits, etc. We especially like these products because although super popular for homes, these can be bought for businesses. Shops, restaurants, offices. All of these need such items too.
You can supply to a wide client base. Additionally, these products are quite pricey, and we know High Price Tag = High Profit. Which makes this product on the top of the list for the best home improvement dropshipping products to sell on your e-commerce stores.
Next, we have the ultimate home improvement set. Whether just a simple task of putting together some new furniture from Ikea or some fixes and renovations, this is a must-have in any home.
There are all sorts of sets. Different sized sets with different tools. Offer a variety as some will need a simpler version, and some want heavy-duty tools. As I mentioned earlier, this niche has skyrocketed due to COVID, and this product is one of the top trends now within this niche.
Although not often thought about, this is a unique category. Just like a microwave or an oven, a fridge might need fixing or cleaning sometimes. You can sell water filters, drain pumps, air filters, and so much more. Since this category is almost untapped, you can stay ahead of your competition.
Earlier, we mentioned toolsets. Toolboxes are the perfect purchase for those who already have tools and just want somewhere to store them. They come in different colors, styles, sizes and can cater to many. Offer a variety to see which are most popular and bring in the most profit for you.
Number 5 on our list are showerheads. These are essential and can be found in any home. Even baths can have showerheads and not just faucets. There are so many to choose from. Based on the size or water pressure, or special advanced features.
Some come with a hose, others can be bought separately. We can’t stress enough how important it is to sell variations.
This will allow you to offer more to your buyers and gather enough data to analyze and multiply your success.
As the 6th product we are sharing with you, we have the Robot Cleaner. Who doesn’t want a gadget cleaning for them? This is a great addition to any home. Lazy? No problem. This will get the job done for busy parents that have enough on their plate as it is, the perfect little helper.
While available at different price points, these are high-ticket dropshipping products with higher profit potential. However, you need to avoid selling branded items. The most common brand for robot cleaners is “iRobot.” They are trademarked. Therefore you can not sell them. Additionally, they are seen as overpriced by many but don’t worry. There are plenty of budget-friendly alternatives on the market since this product is in high demand.
Next, we have a quick and effective way to touch up or repair your appliances’ look. Great for scratch or chip repair, which makes any appliance look new, even after years of use. These easy-to-use portable pens come in plenty of different styles and colors.
Furthermore, they can be used on wood, metal, tile, which makes them super handy for any indoor or outdoor household color repair.
Air Purifiers have been around for so long, but in recent years gained popularity. This is definitely an item that has been on the rise and continues to sell well. If you add a drop of essential oils, it turns into a lovely fragrance dispenser. The compact size makes it perfect for any room in the house.
With that said, remember what we mentioned regarding the surveillance sets? This is another item which can go not only in your home but an office too. Heck, it can even make for a lovely present. Check out different variations and suppliers, and price points to get the most sales out of this hot-selling item.
If you’ve got tiles, this will be your new best friend. Grout brushes are definitely perfect for any tiled surface but can also be used for cleaning shower door tracks, fixtures, and other small spaces. The tough bristles easily scrub away mildew, grime, and soap scum.
As you can see with many of the Home Improvement items, they come in different styles, sizes, shapes, and colors. Adding multiple options in your store will increase sales and profits.
Last but not least, let’s wrap up the Home Improvement niche with ladders. This is almost a niche of its own since there is such a wide variety to choose from. Sizes are a big factor here.
Some buyers will be looking for a small stepladder, while others will want a full size one. This is a great selling item, always needed, and never goes out of style.
How many suppliers are you using for your dropshipping store? If your answer is only one, it’s time you give that a second thought. Dropshipping with only one supplier is not the end of the world, but why limit your store?
The optimal number of suppliers to work with is two or three… Working with more (three or four) can get messy and confusing. This can stop you from successfully scaling, so no need to overdo it.
Expanding to multiple suppliers is not only easy but, in a lot of cases, safer. Additionally, expanding to more suppliers can help scale your business tremendously!
So, what are the benefits of working with multiple suppliers? Let’s start with diversity. You automatically get a wider range of products. Not every product you come across is widely available; some are through specific suppliers. This also lets you differentiate yourself from your competitors since many stick to one supplier.
The next reason is safety. Life is unexpected… So is stock. What if a best-selling item of yours goes out of stock, or the supplier suddenly changes their shipping time?
If you have only one supplier and this happens, you either have no choice but to stop selling the item and lose sales and if you had sales come in just before this happened, you need to cancel orders. What if prices change and you no longer have a good margin for profit. Using multiple suppliers will help avoid these issues.
Lastly, this is a great way to become a more experienced seller. Different suppliers mean different policies, prices, products, and niches! AutoDS supports over 10 suppliers, which is more than enough to reach millions of products and run a successful online business.
