Summertime Spruce Ups

Spring and summer can't get here fast enough and at 3rd Avenue Window Supply, we are stoked about what those seasons bring. The sunny, beautiful weather of the spring and summer means that outdoor, home improvement projects can happen. We're especially excited to add some curb appeal to our homes by partaking in a few upkeep projects. Here are our ideas for how to make your home look nicer in the sunny months ahead:

1. Clean those windows: Let the sunshine in by making sure your windows are dirt and scum free. They will sparkle and shine from the curb, attracting the eyes of onlookers.

2. Make your front door stunning: Whether that be installing a new front door, refinishing the one you already have, making repairs to it or the surrounding area, or adding some plants to the front porch, make a plan to make that entryway shine.

3. Check your roof for damage: Get up there and look around for signs of damage and places that need repair. Call a roof repair company to come assess if you need help.

4. Fix up your concrete: If you have any cracks or pits in your patio, driveway or pathways, resurface and repair the concrete. The summer is the perfect time of year to do this.

5. Paint the exterior: Whether that be adding a new color or just brightening up the current paint job, make your home stand out by brightening up its drab exterior.
