6 Spring Projects That Can Boost Your Home’s Value and Comfort 

As the days get warmer and longer, there's something about spring that makes you want to refresh everything including your home. Whether you’re thinking about selling this season or just want to love where you live a little more, spring is the perfect time to tackle some updates. 

Here are six spring home projects that can make a big impact and might boost your home’s value if listing has been on your mind. 

1. Boost Your Curb Appeal 

First impressions matter, especially when it comes to real estate. After a long winter, your home’s exterior could probably use a little extra love. Spring is the perfect time to power wash your siding, walkways, and decks to wash away all that built up winter grime. A fresh coat of paint or stain on your front door can instantly make your home look and feel more welcoming. It’s also a great season to refresh your landscaping. Planting colorful flowers in your yard not only adds to the home's beauty but also supports our local pollinators.  

2. Check Your Roof and Gutters

After months of snow and ice, it is time to get your roof and gutters inspected for any winter damage. You will want to look for missing shingles, leaks, or any signs of water damage inside your attic. Even small issues can become big and expensive problems down the road. Gutters and downspouts should also be cleared of debris for the spring rain to drain. 

3. Make Energy Efficient Upgrades

Spring is also a great time to boost your home’s energy efficiency before the summer heat rolls in. Sealing up drafty windows and doors can make a big difference. If you do not already have one, installing a programmable thermostat can help you manage energy more efficiently in your home. Adding insulation to attics or basements where heat often escapes is another smart upgrade that can pay off quickly. Buyers love to see energy efficient homes, and your pockets will love the lower utility bills.  

4. Refresh Your Deck or Patio 

Outdoor living spaces are one of the biggest perks of life. After a long winter, giving your deck or patio a little TLC will be great for you and potential buyers. Spring is the perfect time to inspect for any loose boards, wobbly railings, or weathered wood that needs attention. Power washing and resealing your deck can bring it back to life, and adding some cozy outdoor furniture, planters, or lights can make your backyard the perfect spring retreat. 

5. Brighten Up With Interior Paint

It’s amazing how much more noticeable scuffs and scratches become in bright sunlight. A fresh coat of paint or even a few touch ups can make a home feel brighter, cleaner, and more updated. If you are thinking about selling, neutral colors that are warm and cozy are the best option to appeal to more buyers. Even if you’re staying put, fresh paint is one of the easiest ways to upgrade your home.  

6. Organize Your Entryway 

Whether you have a dedicated mudroom or just a hardworking entryway, organizing this space can be a total game-changer. Adding built-in storage, hooks for coats, and durable flooring that’s easy to clean will help keep the rest of your home tidy too. Also, practical spaces like these are a bonus in the eyes of buyers.
