6 Home Improvement Projects to Do This New Year

Every New Year, society tends to set resolutions for themselves that will lead to some form of improvement, such as losing weight, reading more books, going to college, or saving money. But what about improving your home? Considering your home is an investment and a place you spend time at a good portion of the day, it’s smart to better your abode as well. Luckily, there are projects that will improve your living space and value. Check them out below!

1. Add a Pool Enclosure

Pool enclosures add separation between the pool area and the rest of the yard. They are especially great for pools that have a lot of vegetation near them, blocking any loose leaves, branches, and flying insects from falling into the pool. It’ll save you a lot of time cleaning the pool and refilling its chemicals.

2. Add a Pergola

Pergolas provide great shade for gardens and patios, especially near lounging areas by the pool and barbecue. Furthermore, adding plants and vines to a pergola offers additional shade and natural beauty.  

3. Update Your Windows

Your windows may be causing your electric bill to be more expensive without you even knowing it. New windows will lower your bill, save you energy, keep your home at comfortable temperatures, and are strong enough to protect your home from most debris. Even better, we supply PGT Windows, that reduce noise, include 24/7 Intruder Security, protects against hurricanes and debris, and stops 99% of UV rays from damaging your furniture, drapes, and skin.

4. Install Retractable Screens

A retractable screen provides the added benefit of insect control, shading, and privacy any time you want, at the touch of a button. They are great for patios, gazebos, garages, lanais and more.

5. Update Your Storm Protection

2017 brought a lot of rough hurricanes, some causing widespread damage throughout the state of Florida. Prepare for 2018 by updating your garage door braces, shutters, doors, and windows. 

6. Add a Screen Room

With the perfect Florida winter weather, most of us want to be outside and enjoy the cooler air. By adding a screen room, you can relish the beautiful days and fresh air, with shade and without the bugs.
