10 Curb Appeal Ideas

Whether you’re looking to sell your home or just want to make it stand out a little more from the others around you, there are some simple things you can do to add curb appeal. From installing a walkway to cleaning your windows, you’ll notice a difference right away.

A bold front door.

Make a striking first impression with a front door that boasts a unique color, an oversized wreath, or a one-of-a-kind shape. If you want to replace your current door with a different material or style, talk to our door installation experts today.

A walkway.

Whether your walkway is a sidewalk, a series of stones, or a few exaggerated steps, every visitor feels more welcome into a home when there’s a walkway leading to your front door.

Outdoor lighting.

Draw attention to your home with outdoor lighting accents – focus on your home’s architecture, highlight a walkway, or put the spotlight on some beautiful foliage. There are plenty of lighting options to choose from today – including solar and motion-sensored.

An updated mailbox.

We know it’s a simple touch, but a new mailbox can make your home seem even newer. Opt for one with a metal look (and few colors) for a classier touch or go rustic with a traditional wooden style.

A new roof.

We know a roofing installation is a big investment, but it not only increases your home’s value, it makes your home look brand new. Choose from a variety of shingle shapes, materials, and colors to achieve the look you want while getting the protection you need.

Arbors or garden gates.

Arbors or garden gates can give your home a charming, cozy feel and give you the opportunity to incorporate foliage. You can even paint or stain your decor to match your shutters, front door, or patio.

Fresh paint.

Update the painted elements on your home like your trim, window boxes, siding, etc. A fresh coat of paint can do wonders. And if your siding is in need of an upgrade, we can help you find the perfect color and style.

More color.

While trees and shrubs are great for curb appeal, adding color with flowers can tie everything together. Choose colors that complement your home’s siding or stone and you’ll create a beautiful color scheme that extends beyond your physical home.

A re-sealed driveway.

A fresh driveway is always inviting, so consider a coat of asphalt sealant to not only extend your driveway’s lifespan but to create that rich, dark look of freshly paved asphalt.

Clean windows.

It’s another simple idea, but clean, sparkling windows can easily catch a person’s eye and bring a dazzle to your home. And with windows from P.J. Fitzpatrick, you can guarantee cleaning will be fast and easy.
