Give Your Home A Facelift


Corvallis has many middle-aged homes with a distinct lack of street appeal. Sometimes the look of a house can be dramatically improved without huge structural changes. Exterior improvements can range from adding a bay window to a whole new façade.

Facelifts can be done on their own or combined with interior work that you want done at the same time. A new entryway can often add interest and drama to a plain exterior. If your home calls for a gable being added then this can enable you to add some space to an upstairs bedroom or bath. If you're wanting more space and considering an addition, the addition can be incorporated into an overall change to the façade.

Ask your remodeler for pictures of homes they have transformed in this way. It's important to have any major change to your home designed professionally and built by a company that has experience with similar projects. If carefully planned, façade changes can dramatically increase the value of your home.
