Time is at a premium for many Minnesota families, so we all must find ways to save enough of it so some can be spent making memories for our later years. One way you can achieve just that is by installing low-maintenance elements to your home.
Siding and Gutters
One unexpected area that can be addressed is the siding installed on your house. Fiber cement siding is a great example of a quality product that doesn’t take much effort to care for. This relatively new material is extremely durable, so there’s less need to inspect for damage or repair it and comes in a broad variety of colors and textures. The paint used to color the siding is resistant to fading and often carries a warranty of up to 30 years.
One chore that you may dread when the warmer weather comes is cleaning out the gutters. It can be dangerous and is certainly an unpleasant job. Installing gutter guards to keep leaves from getting in, while allowing water to pass through solves this problem beautifully, and saves you more time to do other things.
Creative Solutions
Yard work also tends to be right up there with regular home maintenance. When it rains, grass grows quickly, and when things dry up, brown patches must be addressed if you can’t keep it wet enough. One way more homeowners are getting round this problem is by planting perennial shrubs over more of the yard’s area. They need less upkeep than the lawn, and still look great. Paired with beautiful windows and sleek siding, they can add a great deal of curb appeal to your home.
Taking that extra step to install lower maintenance materials and switch your landscaping around a little bit will save you quite a bit of time, which can ten be used for your family instead of home maintenance.
