The outside of your house makes an immediate impression on anyone who walks or drives down your street or who comes to visit. If your home’s façade is suffering from neglect or weather damage, or if it’s simply outdated, here are some ways to quickly transform your house’s exterior and increase its curb appeal.
Replace Your Front Door
The entry door is one of the things that people focus on whenever they come to visit a house or pass by. If your door is old and worn, it may be more than an eyesore; it may also have drafts that are contributing to high utility costs. Replacing the front door can instantly improve the look of your home’s façade. You’ll also likely see a significant decline in your heating and cooling bills.
Install Vinyl Siding
Several types of siding are common, but some are susceptible to damage from weather, sunlight, and insects or require frequent maintenance. Vinyl siding, on the other hand, is durable, long lasting, and easy to maintain. If your home’s siding is damaged or falling down, it’s making your house look unattractive, and it may also be contributing to high energy bills and exposing your home’s insulation to water. Replacing it with vinyl siding can transform your house’s appearance and save you money.
Replace the Windows
Windows with damaged frames or broken glass can detract from your home’s curb appeal. They can also contribute to significant air leakage that can make your house hot in the summer and cold in the winter. Your air conditioner and furnace may struggle to keep up, and you may face astronomical utility bills. Installing new vinyl windows can immediately improve your home’s curb appeal, and you may see such a large drop in your energy costs that the vinyl replacement windows will quickly pay for themselves.
