Why Hire A Contractor

Whether you’re a new homeowner, or you’re just looking to freshen up the look of your current home, choosing the perfect color palette for the exterior can be difficult and may take some thought. Devoting to a specific color scheme that will define your property’s appearance is a big step because it’s on public display, and it makes all the difference. There are ways to incorporate various complementary colors to create a unique home exterior that you, your family and friends will admire. With all the available colors being sold today, how can someone choose? Make sure you consider certain aspects before beginning the long-term project. Explore neighborhood color schemes. You may want to choose an exterior paint color that balances with nearby homes and blends in nicely. While making your house look beautiful from the outside without ‘standing out’ too much, think about contrasting colors. Choosing paint patterns that have complimentary tones will highlight your home’s architectural characteristic and increase its value in case you ever need to put it on the market. You can also create your new home makeover with the material that makes up your house. For homes designed and structured with brick or stone, choose paint colors that complement the natural textures. You can experiment with paint colors by painting boards with colors you’re contemplating and test them around to see how they look in different lighting conditions (front and back of the house), and you’ll have more certainty in your selection. Can never be too careful before creating something permanent! Consider using a ‘splash’ of color on certain features such as porch columns, shutters, side door frames, etc. It leaves wiggle room to add more beauty and color when deciding a common neutral paint color for the rest of the house. Don’t limit your color choices and do what’s best overall. Once you have picked an attractive blend of field and trim, complete the look with the finishing accent color. Feel free to go bold, but don’t go overboard. Generally, light colors will make your house appear larger and will be influenced by different times of the day, while dark shades can make your property appear smaller and make it blend with the surroundings.

Let’s talk remodel! Each year, the home transformation trends vary, from retro to modern chic. Certain ‘add-ons’ are becoming popular as well. While certain trends remain popular and never go out of style, some instantly go away faster than you can say ‘home project’. So, what are some current renovation ideas that stand out and seem to be what homeowners are choosing this year? A spa bathroom is a luxury that will change the way you see your bathroom. Creating a peaceful environment in your bathroom remodel gives you a space where you can soak in your bathtub with a glass of wine after a long day. No matter where your imagination takes you, consider a bathroom with a large bathtub, wide stand-up shower with an adjustable shower head (maybe two), soft lighting, and serene colors for the walls to incorporate the relaxing atmosphere. Add some small delicate plants, and don’t forget the scented candles to complete the transformation. Add built-in shelves or cabinets to keep the bathroom looking tidy and organized. The fall time is beautiful (not remarkably hot), so why not add an improved outdoor area to your home? Today’s trend for outdoors is to make it look and feel like the inside of your house where you entertain guests, but instead it’s outside on the patio or lanai. Think of all the comforts of your living room and how you can bring them outdoors. Comfy sitting areas include side tables, couches to lounge, rugs, gazebos, a grilling area, and maybe a built-in fireplace or TV mounted on the wall to spend pleasant evenings when the weather is perfect. Many homeowners have convenient dining tables and enjoy dinner or drinks outside. Kitchen islands are handy to have these days when it comes to spicing up the kitchen! They do more than just act as convenient counter space, they are multifunctional. Homeowners are saving space by installing their dishwasher, sink, stove top, and trash pullout in the island. An island is also a gathering place for everyone to stand around, prep meals and talk. Don’t wait and remodel the way you want that will improve your home and its value.
