Energy efficiency and curb appeal are two of the biggest factors that dictate how much value you can get out of your home. That being said, doing everything you can to improve both aspects of your home can have a huge impact on your long-term savings. Here are a few “2-in-1” home improvement projects that can improve your home’s form and function.
Improving Your Home’s Surroundings
Before making changes to your home, you might want to consider changing what’s around it. Adding a few trees to your property can help boost your home’s curb appeal. Aside from making your property look nicer, trees can provide you with some shade which can reduce the amount of heat from the sun absorbed by your home through the day.
Getting an Energy-Efficient Roof
The roof of your home has a big impact on how the rest of your home will look. Coincidentally, it also plays a big role in keeping your home comfortable by blocking out the heat from the sun or the cold from snow and rain. By switching to a roof made of an energy-efficient material, such as our asphalt shingle roofing, you can get rid of an old, dilapidated roof while helping you cut down on heating or cooling costs.
Don’t Forget the Siding
The siding serves as the face of your home while also protecting it from factors that the roof can’t cover. By switching from old wood to newer, more energy-efficient vinyl or fiber cement siding, you not only give your home an updated look, but also help improve its ability to keep indoor temperatures stable. Our siding options are also durable, which means they can further help you save by cutting down the cost of regular maintenance.
New Doors and Windows
Windows and doors serve as the details of your home’s facade. They also provide much-needed ventilation to keep your home from being too hot or humid. Get replacement windows or doors as soon as you see severe signs of wear and tear. Doing this not only refreshes the look of your home, but also helps you avoid energy losses caused by drafts.
