A £4,000 home improvement loan is perfect for a smaller DIY project at home. You may be able to re-imagine one of your rooms or put some money towards a new kitchen or bathroom suite.
Borrowing this amount can help boost your wedding fund or help to consolidate debt too.

Types of loans
- Unsecured personal loans (we offer access to these at Asda Money)
-
- Usually a small, fixed rate loan for personal use
- For amounts between £1,000 and £25,000
- The amount you can borrow and the rate you see is based on things like your personal circumstances and credit score
- Secured personal loans also known as homeowner loans (we don’t offer access to this type of loan)
-
- Typically sums over £15,000 and repaid over longer periods of 5-25 years
- What you can borrow and the interest rate depends on your credit history, your assets and personal circumstances
If you borrow through a secured loan, you need to put up security against the loan amount. This is usually your home, which can be repossessed if you don’t keep up with the loan payments.
- Guarantor loans (we don’t offer access to this type of loan)
-
Some lenders offer guarantor loans for £4,000 and will only lend you the money if a friend or family member agrees to pay it back if you can’t. Always think carefully about guarantor loans as they can put added financial pressure on your loved ones.
How much will a £4,000 loan cost?
When you borrow £4,000 you need to pay interest on the amount you’ve borrowed. This is set by the lender and is calculated at the start of the loan to account for the interest you pay over the full loan term.
If you take out a loan with a higher interest rate, you’ll pay more over the length of the loan. Choosing a longer loan term can help keep your monthly payments down, but you may pay more in interest over the course of the loan.
Will a £4,000 loan affect my credit score?
When you complete an initial eligibility check for a £4,000 loan with Asda Money, we perform a soft search to give you access to our panel of lenders. This doesn’t affect your credit score.
If you choose to take up one of the offers and continue onwards to that lender, they may complete a hard credit search. This will show up on your credit file.
