Find your Kerb Appeal
Kerb-Appeal offers a range of basic, effective home improvement services with the aim of increasing your home’s ‘Kerb Appeal’ and making that all-important great first impression!
The Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) states that a home’s ‘kerb appeal’ can increase its selling price by as much as 10%! There’s also the fact that your home will very likely sell quicker.
Furthermore, a survey of 1337 UK home buyers found that just over two thirds deemed kerb appeal important, primarily based on the initial impression of the property from the outside [source: hoa.org.uk]

Patio & Driveway Cleaning
First Impressions Matter. When approaching your home, your driveway and patio are the first areas people see. Whether you’re hosting guests, potential buyers, or just walking out the door, a clean and well-maintained exterior sets a positive tone. If your driveway or patio is covered in dirt, stains, moss, or algae, it can give the impression of neglect, which can negatively impact how others perceive your home.
Simple and Affordable Maintenance. Cleaning your driveway and patio doesn’t have to be a major project. With power washing, it’s possible to achieve remarkable results in a short amount of time and for a relatively low cost compared to other home improvement projects. This makes it one of the simplest yet most effective ways to enhance the kerb appeal of your home without breaking the bank.
Fence Painting
Increases Property Value. A neat, attractive fence can increase the perceived value of your home, which is especially beneficial if you’re considering selling it in the future. Potential buyers often look for well-maintained homes, and a good fence can be a major selling point. A freshly painted fence gives the impression that the property is cared for and that you’re diligent about its upkeep, which can positively impact a buyer’s decision.
Enhanced Neighborhood Appeal. When multiple homes in a neighbourhood have well-maintained fences, it raises the overall aesthetic of the area. A nice-looking fence contributes to the general kerb appeal of the entire neighbourhood, which in turn increases property values.
Exterior Building Maintenance
Preserves the Aesthetic Appeal. Over time, the exterior of a building is exposed to weather, pollution, and other environmental factors that can cause damage. Regular maintenance—such as cleaning windows, washing walls, repainting surfaces, and fixing any cracks—helps maintain a fresh and appealing look. This contributes to the overall aesthetic, making the building more attractive and visually appealing to anyone who sees it.
Increases Property Value. A well-maintained exterior can significantly increase the perceived value of a property. If potential buyers or tenants see a building that’s in good condition, they’re more likely to perceive it as valuable and worth investing in. On the flip side, a building with a rundown exterior may signal neglect and deter interest. Regular upkeep prevents costly repairs down the road by addressing small issues before they turn into major problems.
Rubbish Removal & Garden Tidy
Boosts Kerb Appeal and Makes the Property Stand Out. A neat, rubbish-free garden helps the property stand out in its neighbourhood or community. When the outdoor space is clean and tidy, it positively catches the eye. Well-maintained flower beds, trimmed hedges, and a neat lawn show that the homeowner or business takes pride in their property. A clutter-free garden with no visible rubbish also helps create a sharp, organized look that attracts attention in a positive light.
Reduces Maintenance Costs. By regularly tidying up the garden and removing rubbish, you’re preventing the build-up of debris that could lead to bigger, more costly issues down the road. For instance, weeds left unchecked can cause damage to garden structures or landscaping, while rubbish left to accumulate can block drainage or attract pests. Keeping the garden clear prevents such issues and reduces the need for more intensive maintenance later.
Carpet Cleaning
Improves Visual Aesthetics. Carpets naturally accumulate dust, dirt, stains, and traffic marks over time. When carpets are regularly cleaned, they look fresher, brighter, and more inviting. Clean carpets can enhance the overall appearance of a room or building, making it feel well-maintained and cared for. Stains or dirt spots can quickly detract from a room’s appeal, while a clean carpet adds to the overall polish and attractiveness of the space.
Enhances Kerb Appeal and Property Value. A clean carpet contributes to the overall kerb appeal of a property, particularly for interior spaces. Just as the exterior of a building or the garden plays a role in first impressions, the cleanliness of the interior—including carpets—makes a difference. Potential buyers, renters, or visitors are likely to notice clean carpets, as it reflects attention to detail and care for the property. A well-maintained interior with spotless carpets can increase the perceived value of a home or business, making it more appealing.
