Spruce up your lawn
An easy, less-expensive, way to add that extra touch to your home’s exterior is taking proper care of you lawn. By simply applying a weed-and-feed treatment, which ensures your grass has the soil nutrients it needs will give it that green color you are envious of and also eradicates your weeds. Take a look at your lawn mower blades and make it a point to have them sharpened regularly. Check the height of your mower deck and set it at, or near, your mover’s tallest setting because cutting your grass too short puts stress on it. If you think that your lawn is at a point of no return, you should consider installing new sod.

Solar Lighting
By adding solar lighting fixtures to your pathways and tree areas you will highlight your landscaped areas. Not only will it add more dramatic effects to your home’s exterior, but it increases the nighttime appeal as well.
Restore Your Driveway
If your driveway looks like a construction zone, it is time to take a look at having it restored to its natural luster. Even just patching the holes and cracks in your driveway and applying a fresh sealer will give it that breath of fresh air it needed if you don’t want to do a full replacement.

Switch out your hardware
Think of your porch lights, mailbox, address numbers & door handle. These are things outside of our homes that are easily forgotten and could still be presenting style from the early 90’s. Although these elements seem small in nature to the big picture, it will add a lot to the ambiance of your home.

Shine up your siding
Use your hose sprayer, or power washer, to clean the siding of your home will make it look new in a heartbeat. Your siding takes a beating from the elements of debris and dirt. Giving your siding a good ol’ bath will bump up your curb appeal to premier status. Be careful when using a power washer that you don’t get to close to any wood on the exterior of your home because it will dent it and also don’t get it underneath the siding.
