Easy Exterior Home Improvements

To upgrade your curb appeal quickly and on a budget there are several home improvement projects that can be tackled. The projects will not only enhance the aesthetic appeal of your home, but can ultimately increase your home’s value. Here are some home improvement projects that provide a high return on your investment:

Exterior Painting

Painting is one of the easiest way to spruce up your home fast. It’s also a relatively inexpensive home restoration project to take on. With a little help from your friends and some good weather, your home can look like new again. However, if your walls are damaged, it might be better to have them replaced.

 

Deck Restoration

A refinished deck can really add appeal to a home. An old-looking deck, on the other hand, can really detract from a home’s value. If the wood in your deck appears to be in good condition, a deck refinishing project is a low budget option.  Keep in mind however, that if your deck has old or rotting wood it will need to be replaced.

 

Trim and Molding Replacement

An often overlooked opportunity for home restoration is trim and molding replacement. Corners and edges can appear worn overtime and blur the edges of your sharply done exterior painting job. New or refinished trim and moldings can make all the difference.

 

Retaining Wall

A retaining wall isn’t just a great way to elevate the appearance of your landscape, it also contributes to your yard health, especially if you have a sloped lawn. This addition can add significant curb appeal and value to your property.

 

There are plenty of opportunities to spruce up your home’s exterior to not only enhance your curb appeal, but increase its value. Don’t let home maintenance projects slip, instead protect your investment with these easy projects.
