In-Studio with John Jay of Harper’s Nursery & Landscaping!

Tip of the Week:  It’s time to clean up that yard & take a fresh look!  Ask a neighbor or a friend what they think.  Get a fresh set of eyes on your house.

(Hint: Volunteering your own opinion on your neighbor’s yard might not be the best idea)

*One shade tree makes a huge difference & simply adding color to the empty pots in the front of your home will make a positive impression.

*Cleaning up is easy with a power washer…Rosie’s new favorite toy around the house…the Karcher Power Washer.

Caller:

  • Toby – He has several plants he wants recommendations on pruning.

Recommendation – Jay shares all the different plants and times it’s best to prune. Now is NOT the time to do it.   Plants slow down on the growth and need the extra foliage to protect the plant and it won’t look “pruned” all winter.

We’re talking “Curb Appeal” with TWD Design. Build. Remodel. Help your home make a good first impression! We share TWD’s history and what they can do for homeowner’s just like you.

***Your 1st step should be to get a fresh set of eyes on your home. You come home to the same driveway every day and might not notice something anymore.

Nathan with TWD and the crew discuss what to do with your weathered front door. An upgraded or refinished front door can make a great first impression!

  • Do It Yourselfer’s might have a tough time. Make sure you’re not taking on too much.
  • While the door panel is out, add extra screws and reinforce the jamb to prevent burglaries.
  • We love PPG Architectural Coatings and TWD talk about their preferences.
  • Nathan and Rosie walk through the steps to take if you’re doing it yourself.

We have some fun with Jennifer as the guys try to figure out what emotions certain colors evoke!  (Blue – Tranquil….Gray – Modern)

Things NOT to add Curb Appeal:

  • Toilets as a planter.
  • Cars on blocks
  • A Clothes Line (Granny’s undies Aren’t exactly inviting)
  • Toy Clutter never looks good.
