Home Improvement

Most of us want our homes to look welcoming and to stand as a symbol not only of our success but also of ourselves. According to Psychologist and author Sam Gosling, we use our possessions to tell the world who we are. He says that when we can convince the world that we are who we think we are, we are happier and more productive.

Whether you’re looking to increase your Colorado house’s resale value or are merely looking to enhance your home’s curb appeal to impress those noisy neighbors—here are six ideas to improve your home.

1. Roof Repair

2. Pet Waste Removal

Keeping your pet’s waste cleaned up in your yard and house is not only courteous to others but keeping animal waste cleaned up can be beneficial to your health. Not only do pets offer many health benefits such as lowering blood pressure, increasing levels of oxytocin (the “happy” chemical), and encouraging physical activity; but keeping your animals waste cleaned up can prevent you from getting sick from parasites and bacteria that can be present in dog and cat feces, according to Harvard Health Publishing. Plus, let’s be honest, it’s not a good “look”.

3. A Cleaning Checklist

Keeping your home clean and tidy is not only good for curb appeal but according to an article in Psychology Today from 2016, one study actually showed that people that live in clean houses are healthier than people who do not.

Here are some cleaning tasks that are often overlooked to check off your list:

  • Give your BBQ a deep clean before using it regularly this season
  • Clean the lights (indoor and outdoor)
  • Wash windows (indoor and outdoor)
  • Clean the gutters

4. Tree-Trimming

Tree-Trimming
Not only does trimming your trees make your yard look tidier, but you can clean up your yard by directing the growth of your branches so that they do not make such a mess in the fall.

5. Temperature Control

According to Energy Star, your ceiling fan should turn in the counterclockwise position in the warm months producing a “wind chill” effect to keep the house cooler whereas it should be spinning clockwise on low in the cold months to force warm air by the ceiling into open space keeping the house warmer. Doing this and making sure all your weatherstripping has been replaced recently will do a great job at saving energy (and saving you money) while keeping your Colorado home comfortable all year long!
