Westlake Royal Building Products, known for innovation in exterior and interior building products, has highlighted trends that are reshaping how homeowners approach fall renovations proving that some of the most valuable upgrades aren’t the most expensive ones.
Upgrade Your Garage
- New garage doors offer energy efficiency and advanced security while being a relatively low-cost update with high perceived value.
- According to the report, replacing a garage door boasts a 193% return on investment.
- Pairing new garage doors with updated trim options like Royal Garage Door Trim creates a tight seal against exterior elements like wind, snow and water.
Insulate for a Warmer Interior
- Insulated siding enhances home thermal performance, reducing heat loss and energy bills.
- If vinyl, the report notes that a vinyl siding replacement has an 80.2% return on investment.
- An option like CraneBoard Solid Core Siding provides superior durability, insulation, strength and impact resistance. This solid core construction improves energy efficiency, reduces external noise and withstands extreme weather conditions.
Leak-Proof Your Home’s Windows
- Improperly sealed windows can drain energy and let warmth escape.
- Sealing cracks or gaps with TruExterior Siding & Trim can keep heat in and cold air out; for extreme drafts, consider a window replacement.
- According to the report, sellers can get an average 67.1% return on vinyl window replacement.
Shield Your Roof
- Your roof is your home’s first line of defense against the elements. Check for damage and make repairs to prevent leaks.
- If a roof replacement is needed – which provides a 56.9% return on investment using asphalt shingles, according to the report – consider adding a high-quality underlayment for an extra layer of protection.
- For example, Sol-R-Skin BLUE from Westlake Royal Building Products is an external insulating underlayment for steep slope roofing. This all-in-one product serves as a water-protective layer, energy-saving radiant barrier, and insulation blanket, with an anti-glare coating for easier installation.
