Summer Home Improvement Projects
Summer is just around the corner in the Kansas City area, and in addition to BBQ and baseball that means only one thing – a growing to-do list. With warmer weather often comes the task of tidying up Kansas City summertime home improvement and fixing aspects of your home that you’ve put off all winter (and let’s be honest, spring). However, some projects are more important than others.
To help keep your home in top-shape this summer, make sure these home improvement projects are at the top of your list:
Replace Windows
Does one of your windows have a broken seal or is the wood around it beginning to rot? Replace any windows that need upgraded this summer, and you will increase the value of your home, and save on energy costs.
Power Wash EVERYTHING
From your driveway to your deck, a good power wash can go a long way. This deep cleaning will bring new life to your property while getting rid of the buildup of a brutal midwestern winter. But be careful – only use the power wash on a low fan setting for optimal results.
Repair Siding
This summer, take the time to actually do something about the bubbles or cracks in your siding by repairing it with the help of a professional from Total Home KC. By repairing any problem areas, you’ll cut down on long term costs as well.
Build an Outdoor Living Area
Summer is a time to enjoy the outdoors, so give yourself an excuse to go outside more by building a fire pit or patio. Depending on the scale, and your ambitions, these types of projects can be a fun weekend activity that pays off for years to come.
Before the heat of summer fully kicks in, cross off these home improvement projects from your to-do list. And once you’re done with them, consider adding a few finishing touches with a fresh coat of paint or even a new outdoor lighting system for your front yard – come August, you’ll be glad you did.
