Six Easy and Instant Curb Appeal Projects for Summer

Even if you aren’t interested in selling your home, enhancing its curb appeal can do wonders for the aesthetics of your home. Plus, it’s not as hard as you might think.

The experts at Callen, a leading exterior remodeling company in Waukesha County, have a few ideas to get you started.

Install Window Boxes

Adding a few window boxes to your home’s facade provides fragrant aromas along with the welcoming touch of brightly colored blooms. If you find the windows themselves need attention, call Callen to get an estimate for window replacement.

Perk It Up With Paint

Add a coat of paint to a wooden fence or the garage door for an instant upgrade. If your window and door trim is looking dingy, now is a good time to give those areas some love too.

Add a Doorbell or Knocker

You may not use the front entryway often, but remember this area makes the first impression to your guests. A shiny new door knocker, stone accents, welcoming entry door color, or doorbell provides an eye-catching hint of newness to the entry of your home.

Invest in Solar Lighting

Solar lighting does more than simply illuminate a sidewalk or front entryway. Use it to highlight architectural features, lawn ornamentation, and landscape designs.

Hide the Trash Cans

If your outside trash cans are an eye sore to your neighbors, consider storing them out of sight behind a fence or landscaping.

Stain the Deck or Porch

Staining the deck and porch, particularly if it sits on the side or front of your home, is a great way to upgrade your home’s curb appeal.
