Why is Home Improvement Necessary?
- Comfort
- Your home is your castle, and you should feel comfortable and safe within your four walls. Remodeling improvements can help make your home the blissful paradise it’s supposed to be.
- Improvements such as replacement windows and siding can make your home feel less drafty, and they can also protect your home from intruders and weather-related damage.
- Increasing Space
- If your home feels too cramped, expansions or room additions can allow you to roam through your castle as freely as a lion struts through the jungle.
- Suddenly, you have extra space to entertain guests or just hang out — improving the feng shui of your home. Plus, add-ons — such as screened-in porches or sunrooms — can allow you to enjoy the sunshine without getting blasted by a summer wind or the winter chill.
- Energy Efficiency
- While you’ll notice how comfortable and spacious your home is after an exterior remodel or expansion, you’ll practically be doing backflips at the end of the month. That’s because the numbers on your energy bill will likely be quite a bit lower than they were previously. And as is the case with a golf scorecard, lower numbers are definitely better.
- There are several ways that home improvement projects — particularly those involving exterior home remodeling — can save you money on your energy bill. Replacement windows and new siding can better insulate your home, allowing thermal energy to redistribute more easily. Glass coating on replacement windows can cut down on the amount of solar heat that beams into your home through the glass.
- These factors will help keep your home’s temperature closer to that of a sunny April day in San Diego, year-round. Since your home won’t feel like a sauna or an igloo, you won’t need to crank the heater or air conditioner as much — which means lower bills and more money in your pocket.
- Maintenance
- Diamonds might be forever, but your home won’t stay shiny and flawless forever without some maintenance. Windows, siding, roofing, doors, handles and seals all age and decay over time. Some of these items might even break down completely. So even if you don’t think you need to make improvements to your home now, you’ll save yourself headaches down the line by doing so.
- And once you replace aging windows, doors or siding, you’ll likely be able to sit back and enjoy them for a longer time than you can with your current items. Many of today’s replacement windows, siding and doors are built with durable materials such as vinyl, fiberglass, fiber cement or composites. These materials stand up to harsh weather conditions, and they don’t require constant maintenance
