- Don’t delay repairs.
Year after year, basic improvements—such as replacing a door that creaks or fixing leaky roofing in Delaware—have proven to effectively add value to a home. This is because they keep the home from deteriorating over time. That said, don’t make it a habit to postpone even the most basic repairs. Resolving issues now prevents them from becoming bigger problems that are more difficult and costly to repair later on.
- Make more parts of the home energy-efficient.
This year, instead of focusing on fancy room remodels, opt for projects that improve insulation inside the home. Doing this not only improves overall comfort, it can also cut back your heating and cooling bills by a great margin.
Did you know that old, drafty windows account for up to 30% of energy loss inside the home? That’s according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s findings. Getting replacement windows can solve your energy problems. Newer models use insulated frames, advanced glass packages, and airtight sealing materials that keep heat transfer to a minimum. This reduces strain on your HVAC systems, which translate to smaller utility bills down the line.
- Hire a professional.
The success of your projects this year relies heavily on who you hire to do them. Faulty techniques and unreliable practices actually do more harm than improvement.
High-quality entry doors, for example, will underperform if they’re not installed properly. Gaps, cracks, and nicks caused by faulty installation let costly energy escape from your home. That works against the energy-efficient features of the door.
Expert handling also ensures that your new door, window, or roof will need fewer repairs and less maintenance down the line. If you don’t have to spend on fixes every now and then, more money can stay in your pocket or be invested elsewhere.
