Painting is a home improvement project that can pay big dividends using inexpensive and easy supplies.  The living room, kitchen, and master bathroom are the most important rooms in a house.  A new coat of paint can freshen up your home and add zip to it.  The most appealing colors universally are neutrals (off white, and other shades of yellow- based tones).

  • Indoor Light Fixtures

When renewing lighting, remember to replace the three Ds:

Damaged, Dated, and Distracting lighting.

-       First replace all damaged lights in your home.

-       Renew dated, low-hanging chandeliers with a basic pendant lamp placed higher for less distraction.

-       Replace lighting in dark rooms with higher-wattage light bulbs.

  • Landscaping

Before you begin, survey the area and make a plan.  Landscaping home improvement projects can range from relaxing Zen themes to traditional yard designs. Aside from lawn upkeep, landscaping consists of floral arrangements, shrubbery grooming, and even the addition of a garden.  Proper watering and careful lawn mowing will keep your landscape looking its best for years to come.

  • Curb Appeal

Add curb appeal to your home with easy DIY home improvement projects by:

-       Replacing your dated mailbox

-       Cleaning your storm door and windows

-       Add a fresh coat of paint to your front door

-       Brighten up street address numbers to match the style and theme of your home
