Spring is here and with it comes warmer weather, extra daylight, and an invigorating feeling. This makes spring the perfect time to make repairs and upgrades to your home. Although some people choose to tackle large projects like additions and remodels, most people take on smaller projects in the spring.
Window Replacement
Replacing the windows of your home provides numerous benefits. In addition to upgrading the overall look and curb appeal of your home, window replacement can save you a significant amount of money over time. New windows keep cold air out and warm air in during the cooler months. The opposite is true during summer. New windows make heating and air conditioning systems more efficient, reducing both energy and maintenance costs. When HVAC systems don’t have to work as hard, they’re less likely to experience problems.
Update Flooring
Replacing the flooring in your home can have a dramatic effect on its look and feel. Replacing carpet with hard flooring reduces allergens and makes clean-up easy.
Over time, carpets collect dirt and stains. Carpet can begin to smell as bacteria grows deep inside the fibers. Once this happens, it can be impossible to get carpets clean. It’s much easier to clean hardwood floors. All that is needed is a quick vacuum and dust mop once a week.
Lighting
Updating the lighting of your home improves both visibility and safety. New lighting fixtures look better than older designs and provide an instant upgrade to the interior of your home.
Adding lighting in darker areas of the home and outdoors removes shadows. This reduces the chance that intruders can hide in or around your home.
Shopping for Supplies
When making upgrades and repairs, homeowners are often surprised by the high cost of building materials and home improvement supplies. These high costs may make homeowners put off necessary improvements. Fortunately, there are options.
