Upgrading the appearance of your property can enhance its curb appeal. A home with great curb appeal can increase your enjoyment of your home and also potentially impact its value. Even so, you don’t have to spend a fortune to transform the look of your front yard. The following low-cost ways will help you improve the look of your setting.
Painted Features
Painting your front door, shutters, and window boxes in a vibrant shade will add a pop of color to the front of your home. Painting various features of your home the same color will provide a unifying look while simultaneously enhancing its eye-catching appeal. If your home is a neutral shade, consider painting your door and shutters a contrasting hue like red, emerald green, or even blue. We can paint these features for you over a day or two.
Plants
Improve the vertical space of your setting by adding hanging plants to your porch. You can also install a few trellises around your setting to support climbing vines and flowering plants. Plants, when properly maintained, can dramatically enhance the look of your setting. You should also take care to keep your shrubs and trees well groomed or your landscape is apt to appear unkempt. You can plant some low-maintenance perennials to improve the look of your landscape too.
Porch Lights
An outdated porch light can detract from the appearance of your home. It’s an inexpensive fix to replace an outdated light with a newer model. We can handle the electrical side of the installation. You simply need to choose a fixture or several fixtures that complement the home structure. To make a dramatic statement, consider adding a pendulum light or install landscape lighting to highlight special features of your property.
Clean It Up
Trimming your plants is important, but it’s equally important to tidy up other aspects of your home to improve its curb appeal. A thorough pressure washing will brighten up your setting and enhance the look of your home. Plus, it doesn’t cost a lot to have us perform this essential maintenance work. Be sure to remove any debris from your walkway and clear the dirt from pavement to clean up your setting.
Special Features
You can enhance your enjoyment of your property and also upgrade your curb appeal by installing special features to the front of your home. Consider adding a hanging swing to your porch with brand new cushions that complement the color of your home. You might install a fountain in your front yard that provides a distinctive focal point for you setting.
