Why to remodel your patio?
Resale return: 90.3% on average.
It costs about $11,000 with a resale value of $10,000 to add a 16×20 feet pressure-treated deck that has basic patterns.
To make your home more appealing, try adding decorative planters to your deck, patio, or porch.
Giving a small improvement to your courtyard can make all the difference. Use attractive plantings, lighting, and a great gate.
If you use bold plantings, you can help to distract people from flaws. You can also use them to make the features stand out.
Make sure that your porch railings are eye-catching but safe. A run-down stair can make your profit margin a lot lower.
Use some wooden trellis to hide AC units that don’t look good.
The recoup rate in the South is at 83%. However, it reaches almost 100% in the West.
Improvements for Exteriors (Front Entry, Paint Jobs, and Vinyl Siding)
Resale return: 95.5% on average.
To change about 1,250 square feet of vinyl siding, the average cost is about $7,239, with a return of $6,914. Take into account that one gallon of paint is enough to cover approximately 400 square feet of a house. Consider looking at some paint color cards before choosing the best color combination for you.
Test your house for lead before doing any scraping or siding work if the last time you painted your house was in 1978. An upscaled fiber-cement siding job can cost an average of $10,393 with a resale return of $10,771, which is an excellent recoup rate.
Purchase load-bearing columns if you need them to hold a pergola up. Fiberglass columns are great and very durable. You can visit some salvage yards to look at historic columns.
Eliminate outdated awnings from doors and windows for a fresh look.
Get real wood supports to replace damaged iron railings. This is to achieve a more attractive entry.
Add some columns and a pergola to give your porch a new upgrade.
Landscaping Work
Resale return: 100% on average.
According to the American Nursery Landscape Association, the average person spends approximately $1,465 on a landscape designer and $3,502 for an overall landscaping job. If you don’t know where to start, you can contact a garden center to look at free designs, or you can ask your neighbors to see which is the best option for them.
Sod may cost from 30 to 35 cents per square foot. This means that if you have a 5,000 square-foot yard, it may cost approximately $1,500 to cover it in sod. If you get less than 1,000 square feet of sod, you may need to adjust your budget for delivery fees.
