5 TIPS TO MAKE YOUR HOME STANDOUT IN THE NEIGHBOURHOOD

 In certain neighbourhoods, homes can start to blend together and look like carbon copies of one another.

Don’t let your home blend into the crowd. There are some simple and attractive ways to make sure your home stands out on its street or in its neighborhood. 

Have you ever taken time to think about your front door?  Have you just stuck with contractor colours and whatever design the house came with? This is unfortunate, because your front door is really one of the easiest and least expensive ways for you to improve your home’s appearance and perceived value. 

 Painting – Your front door has a personality of its own. And when you pick a color that’s different from the rest of your house, that’s what you’resaying about yourself as well. While the overall color of a house may need to be neutral to fit in with the neighbourhood, the front door is a focal point that’s prime for self-expression.  Check out Kaiso at our Paint and Sundries Department for great front door paint colors, from classic to courageous, that is sure to give your home more street cred.

Add a tinted/lead glass – Adding lead crystal or stained glass windows to your front door shows you’ve got refined tastes… and that you know how to welcome your guests with the best of the best. Our experts are available to do the necessary changes to your satisfaction. Or you could replace the door with one of our finest in stock. Come in and talk to Jonathan; with his expertise in door sales, you can rest assured to leave our store with one of our top of the line doors.

Improve Lighting – After dinner, drinks and a great time have been had by all, everyone is standing in the doorway bidding each other farewell with a smile. In that moment, the lighting around your doorway is all-important. Because, if it’s just as and warm as your guests’ memories of the evening, then they’ll leave that night with bright an impression, not soon to be forgotten. Speak to  our Customer Sales Representative Darnel Joseph from the  Electrical Department who will be more than happy to introduce you to a few cool fixtures and lights that will have the front of your house stand out.

 Redesigning – You can prove you’re a person with vision by taking a more architectural approach to your entrance. Add a raised awning… a window over your doorway… or redesign your front steps. These aren’t just accents; they show your guests that you’ve got big ambitions and the commitment it takes to turn your plans into reality.
