4 simple ways to improve your curb appeal

Planning to rent out or sell your home? One of the most important aspects to consider is your curb appeal. Curb appeal refers to the appearance of the front of your home from the road. This is the first part of your property that potential buyers and renters will see, so it’s important that you make first impressions count. Luckily you can increase the curb appeal of your home with these four simple tips.

Update your landscaping

Whether you’re into a green manicured front lawn or an array of tropical plants, it’s important that your front landscaping is appealing. Give all garden beds a good weed and fresh covering of mulch and fill any gaps with new plants. If you have the room, add a feature pot plant (or plants) near your front door.

Pressure clean your driveway

Over the year’s dirt, oil, grime and mould builds up on the surface of your driveway giving it a grey and grubby appearance. If you want to instantly lift the appearance of your front yard, then organise your driveway to be pressure cleaned and watch as years of age are washed away!

Repaint your front door

It sounds simple but redoing your front door can really transform your home. Either give your door a new lick of paint or simply replace your old door with a more modern wooden door with small inset windows. This will draw visitors’ eyes to the entrance of your home and entice them to explore inside.

Roof restoration

A dirty or unkept roof can really distract from the appeal of your home. If your roof is over 20 years old and showing signs of deterioration, then it may pay to invest in a full roof restoration. Roof restorations will not only include necessary repairs, but also general maintenance, pressure cleaning, priming and colour coating.
