As warmer weather returns, spring is the perfect time to refresh your home’s exterior and boost curb appeal. Whether you live in the suburbs of Maryland, a historic D.C. neighborhood, or a coastal Delaware town, small improvements can have a big impact on your home’s value and charm. At Garbis Enterprises, we’ve helped homeowners across the Mid-Atlantic region transform their exteriors with thoughtful, lasting upgrades. Here are our top spring curb appeal project ideas.

1. Enhance Your Entryway: Front Doors That Stand Out

Your front door sets the tone for the entire home. If your entryway feels outdated, replacing your front door can provide an instant upgrade. Choose a bold color, a decorative glass insert, or a timeless wood-look finish to make your home stand out.

Bonus Tip: Complete the look with new hardware, modern house numbers, and planters for a welcoming feel.

2. Update Your Windows: Style + Efficiency

Outdated windows can drag down your home’s appearance and energy performance. Installing replacement windows not only improves curb appeal but also boosts efficiency. In regions like Maryland, D.C., and Delaware, where seasonal temperatures vary widely, energy-efficient windows with double-pane glass and Low-E coatings can help lower utility bills and increase indoor comfort.

3. Refresh Your Siding or Trim

Faded siding or peeling paint can make your home look tired. Whether you opt for new vinyl siding, fiber cement, or just a fresh coat of paint on trim and shutters, these upgrades make a big difference. Light grays, coastal blues, and warm earth tones are trending this spring in the Mid-Atlantic region.

Local Favorite: Fiber cement siding for durability and weather resistance in all climates.

4. Add Landscape Elements That Complement Your Home

Curb appeal isn’t just about your house—it’s about your entire front yard. Spring is a great time to plant colorful perennials, mulch garden beds, and trim overgrown shrubs. Even adding potted plants or window boxes can create a more polished and inviting entrance.

Easy Upgrades: Solar lights along the walkway, hanging baskets on the porch, and a fresh doormat.

5. Repair Driveways, Walkways & Steps

Cracks in the driveway or chipped steps can detract from your home’s overall appearance. Consider resurfacing your concrete, installing new pavers, or adding a stone path. These upgrades improve both safety and visual appeal.

Mid-Atlantic Style Tip: Use brick or bluestone accents to complement traditional architecture found in many D.C. and Maryland neighborhoods.
