Curb Appeal Landscaping Ideas

 4 Quick Ways to Increase the Curb Appeal of Your Home

If you are looking to sell your home in the near future or get an appraisal, the best thing you can do to enhance the value of the home in a short time frame is to work on the curb appeal of your house. First impressions are extremely important with a home, just as they are with people. The following are four fast ways to upgrade the front yard curb appeal of your house.

•  1. Resurface the Driveway

This can make your home more attractive and bring up the value of the home as well. If you have an asphalt driveway, it is often inexpensive to replace this type of material, but if the asphalt is still in good shape you may want to simply apply a thin surface coating.




Concrete driveways can be more expensive to replace, but there is also the option of hiring a company that specializes in high-pressure water cleaning. When concrete is cleaned in this way, it can look fresh and attractive. Also, if you have a red brick chimney, this same cleaning method can bring out the colour of the brick. Have a look at the infographic by Driveways Glasgow below to get some ideas when it comes to paving for driveways. 

•  2. Paint the House Exterior

Obviously, painting the house exterior can go a long way to creating curb appeal, but if your paint is fairly recent, you may not want to invest more money, even if it means only changing the colour. A lower cost alternative is to simply change the trim colour. 

A new trim colour, combined with the main colour of your home, can be eye-catching. While you’re at it, if your house has address numbers on the trim, you can replace them with brand new ones. If your numbers or anywhere else, including the curb, you should consider replacing or repainting them.

•  3. Improve your roof

What you can do with your roof will largely depend upon the type of material you have. However, most roofs have different types of roof shingles. If the shingles are still in good shape, you may be able to have them oiled so they look attractive.

•  4. Replace your front – and garage door

Although you can often paint your garage door at the same time the trim is being done, a new garage door can complement your new driveway. There are many designs to choose from. Replacing your front door doesn’t cost a lot of money and can be a stunning upgrade for your house. The front door is one of the most important aspects of curb appeal.  The best way to have the work mentioned above done is by using local remodelling contractors.
