Recent studies show that high-quality, professional looking landscaping can add 5-10% percent to a home’s asking price. Where to start? Best to start simple. Clean up what you have. Here’s a quick guide to a fresh looking home exterior.

1. Weed, Edge and Mulch Beds. Start by weeding existing beds. Then add a three inch layer of mulch to all beds to create a colorful, fresh look. Mulch helps hold in moisture, so your plants and shrubs will than you later. Cut fresh edges where grass meets the mulch for a more professional look.

2. Fertilize Your Lawn. For lush, green grass your neighbors will envy, start regular fertilizer treatments and continue with a regular weed & feed schedule each season.  Try and popular brand like Scott’s that is easy to apply. Spend a little extra money to buy a spreader, which quickly and evenly distributes fertilizer over your lawn.

3. Add a Pop of Color. For about $2 per plant, you add colorful petunias, begonias and impatiens to accent sidewalks and beds.

4. Trim Trees & Shrubs. Cut back dead limbs or old growth to encourage new growth. A clean, trimmed landscape looks much more appealing than out of control trees and shrubs.

5. Improve Your Entry. The first thing your guests see is the entrance to your home. If the door is made of wood and in good shape, then a new coat of paint or refinishing it may be enough. But if you have a steel door and you notice it is dented, replace it with a new inexpensive steel door, a fiberglass door or upgrade to a nice wood grain door. Installing a new door can give you home a secure and updated appearance.

6. Check Your Roof.  Your roof is a major part of your home’s exterior and highly visible when passing by.  If your roof has torn or missing shingles, it might be time for a roof repair or new roof. Most roofs last 15-20 years. Installing a new roof on your Indiana home will not only spruce up your home’s exterior, it’s an important part of weatherproofing and saving energy on utilities.

Consider talking with a professional landscaper or home improvement company for more ways on updating your home’s landscape and exterior and improving the curb appeal. Many of these improvements will also help increase the value of your home and make it easier to sell.

People usually think of rain gutter protection in the spring or fall when gutters have a tendency to clog with leaves and heavy rain cause overflows that bring gutter problems to our attention. The fact is that snow can also cause major problems when you don’t have a proper rain gutter protection system in place.

Not only do gutters keep rain from running off your roof and over doorways and entryways and getting you wet, they protect your home from damage by managing the flow of water. Having a gutter protection system actually serves a very important function. When rain hits your roof it runs down into your rain gutter system and drains safely away from your home. The power of hundreds of gallons of rain water running off your roof can be a damaging source of nature. Where does it go once it  gets to the edge of your roof? Without gutters it goes right to your home’s foundation.  The dirt around your home saturates with water leading to foundation damage, water in your basement, mold problems and a host of other expensive and troublesome problems.

But I do have gutters you’re thinking? Yes, but if your gutters and downspouts aren’t cleaned and functioning properly, it’s the same as not having any. Clogged gutters cause rain water to overflow onto the ground below.  That’s where rain gutter protection comes in. A good rain gutter protection system like Gutter Helmet solid gutter covers can protect your foundation, basement and home from damage.

Here are a few general gutter cleaning and maintenance tips from our team of experts:

- A good rule of thumb is that gutters need to be cleaned in the spring and fall. If your house is located in a heavily wooded area, you may need to clean your gutters more frequently.
- You will need a ladder, a bucket, rubber gloves, a spade or other small shovel, large spoon or other device to scoop debris from gutters and a hose to do the job
- After you remove all the debris by hand, rinse out the gutters with a hose and check for leaks
- Also be sure to check to make sure your gutters are pitched correctly so that water flows completely out of gutters and there is no standing water
- Repair any leaks at seems by patching with outdoor waterproof caulk
-Always do this with a second person who can hold the ladder and empty the bucket. That way you reduce the risk of falling.
