How to add curb appeal to your house
1. Update your front door – Whether choosing a new front door or refurbishing and painting your front door, this is a quick, easy and often DIY way of improving your home’s facade.
2. Makeover the Driveway – Your driveway is one of the first details that someone will notice about your house. If it’s aging with cracked cement or asphalt, it can detract from the look of your home. There are more decorative options for a driveway. For instance, stamped concrete or brick can provide a beautiful, illustrious look.
3. Consider the Landscaping – If the plants and flowers in your front yard have seen better days, it might be time to plant something new. Plan and plant your flower beds so that there is color and life for three seasons out of the year.
You can improve the landscaping by adding a front-yard water feature as well. A walkway through the existing landscaping could allow you to soak in the nature around your yard. The landscaping possibilities are endless when it comes to remodeling the outside of your home.
4. Install a New Roof – If the age of your roof is detracting from the look of your home, it may be time to update it. A new roof can boost that curb appeal, while providing energy savings, and a host of other benefits.
5. Personalize the Porch – Front porches can be large enough to stretch the front of the home or small enough to include a few seats. But consider updating the furniture, flowers, and other accent items on the porch to give it a new life. If you do this right, you may find yourself wanting to spend more time out there.
Remodeling the outside of your home doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive. You don’t have to implement a ton of solutions at once. Find the steps that are right for you, and experiment with the looks they create. If you’re looking to update your home’s roof or siding, contact us today for more ideas!
