3 Parts of a Home to Remodel First

Looking to upgrade part of your home? To determine which home improvement project to tackle first, you need to consider your priorities. Are you looking to boost your home’s curb appeal or enhance functionality, or perhaps both? Read on to learn about the advantages different projects like siding installation or roof replacement can offer.

#1 – Roof Ventilation

One of the biggest threats to your home is the heat. Not only does a hot home sometimes lead to mold and mildew issues, it can also cause your energy expenses to soar. If your home is uncomfortably hot, it might be due to your absorbing too much heat and not being able to disperse it properly.

To solve this problem, you might need to conduct a home remodeling project to add some vents to your attic. This way, the heat escapes your attic more efficiently, your indoor environment becomes more comfortable, your cooling system doesn’t have to work as hard and your shingles don’t bake from underneath.

#2 – Window Replacement

Another way to beat the heat and improve your home’s look is with window replacement. By installing new windows, you can improve your home’s ventilation, thus cutting down on your air conditioning costs while also boosting the comfort of your home. For example, installing casement windows in the living room can give your living space a refreshing breeze.

#3 – Siding Replacement

Does your siding need to be updated? Keep in mind that old, worn down siding doesn’t just drag down your home’s curb appeal; it also compromises your home’s energy efficiency and protection from the elements. We recommend investing in James Hardie siding. Provided by the best siding company in America, fiber cement siding can resist almost everything, from fire to moisture. It can also be modified to look like real cedar wood or brick.

Whatever home improvement project you have in mind, we can help. Our team will guide you through the whole procedure and can guarantee a successful outcome every time. Call us today at (703) 822-7222. We serve homeowners in and near Arlington, VA.
