You want to boost your home’s value and enhance your exterior curb appeal, but you aren’t sure what projects will have the most impact. Here are a few summer projects that offer a stellar return on your investment and maximize your home’s exterior aesthetics.
Build a Deck A deck is consistently rated as a home improvement project that offers a great return on your investment. Not only does a deck raise your home’s value, but it increases your home’s amount of living space. This makes your property more attractive and ensures that you have room for outdoor activities, like entertaining and barbecuing. When using deck-building services, you’ll want to consider a few details, like how large you want the deck to be, what materials you want to use, and whether you want to incorporate any built-ins (like a bench or planters).
Repaint Your Home Hire a company with experience in exterior residential painting to freshen up your home’s paint. A fresh coat of paint makes your home look newer and well-maintained; it also protects your home from the elements, like weather damage and dust. A quality paint job can also keep your exterior wood features (like your window sills or trim) from rotting. You should repaint your home every 5 to 10 years, and wood surfaces (like your trim or your porch) usually need to be painted every 3 to 7 years.
Pressure Wash Your Exterior Surfaces If your driveway looks old and dingy, this will negatively impact your home’s curb appeal. A pressure washing session will remove dirt and grime from your porch, walkways, driveway, and other exterior surfaces.
Upgrade Your Door’s Hardware New hardware instantly enhances the look of your home’s existing door. Select hardware that offers a pleasing contrast to your door’s paint color. For example, silver or brass hardware looks striking on a black or navy door.
