Brush up your home’s exterior and boost curb appeal with these three home improvement projects:

 

  1. Paint The Front Door

One easy way to make your home stand out in your neighborhood is to paint your front door with a bold color. By accentuating your home’s front door you create a focal point, which can be a great way to get people to notice your home. Before having the door painted, make sure to select a color that will complement your existing exterior. If you’re too nervous to use a bold color, a pastel that is both subtle, but eye-catching will do the trick.

 

 

  1. Power Wash

Power washing your home is one of the best ways to freshen up the exterior. Your home can receive quite the beating from various weather elements, causing grime and dirt to build up on your siding, deck and walkways. Power washing is an effective method that will clean up those hard to reach places and the spots of your home that require a little more than your best elbow grease can provide. At Modern Painting we  recommend you get your home power washed every two years.

 

 

  1. Update Your Exterior Paint

Repainting your home will really bring your curb appeal to the next level; however, only if you select the right color. The best way to decide on an home exterior paint color is to take a walk around your neighborhood and select colors that will complement existing homes. This doesn’t mean there’s zero room for creativity, trim and shutters can be painted complementary colors to make it more unique. By using a similar color pallet you can make your home fit in and stick out at the same time, which can go a long way in the eyes of potential home buyers.
