Is your home looking and feeling a little blah lately? It doesn't have to! Try these great home facelift projects to give your home a boost.
Lawn Projects
One of the biggest curb appeals indicators is how well a home's yard work is done. Sometimes simply cutting the lawn more frequently can make a huge different. Try adding pops of color with pretty flowers. If you don't want to worry about the annual time and expense of planting flowers, consider adding perennial native plants and flowers. An additional benefit of this? Most plants native to our area are drought-resistant.
Paint Projects
Keeping your home's paint fresh can be a bit of a pain to maintain. However, chipped and worn paint can make your house look a little sad. If you need a complete overhaul, be sure to consider complementary colors to make your home stand out. Check out this blog post from This Old House to help you choose the best matches for your house.
Roof Projects
Make sure that leaves, debris, and dust are kept off of your roof and gutters. One of the biggest reasons for this is that it enhances the durability of your roof and can add years to its life. Leaving debris on your roof not only decreases the longevity of your roof, it also provides an instant facelift for your home.
You should also clean out your gutters regularly. Leaves and dust can form a "mud" in gutters, which reduces their effectiveness. It also increases the likelihood of leaks and damage to your home from water overflow.
Garage Door Projects
Surprisingly enough, a new garage door can completely change your home's exterior. Tired, worn-out old garage doors may be dented, scratched, or faded. Additionally, new garage doors are usually quieter and more energy efficient.
