Hibernation Season is officially over. Now that homeowners have taken that first tentative walk around their home’s exterior, and the areas in need of attention have been listed and prioritized, all you need is the right people to make them happen.
If your vision of an exterior makeover includes a new roof, siding, gutters or an exterior paint job, Curb Appeal Painting and its division Curb Appeal Roofing are the companies to call.
How does Curb Appeal compare to other roofing companies? Marketing Director Rob Drago says the biggest differentiators are offering a VIP level of customer service and devotion to top-quality craftsmanship.

“Unlike many roofing companies, we go the extra mile to repair a roof whenever possible, so people don’t have to replace it,” he says. “We also help homeowners work with the insurance companies.”
The product quality makes a difference, too. As CertainTeed Shingle Master Preferred Contractors, Curb Appeal meets and exceeds top-tier industry-wide standards.
New Styles of Siding
“The sky’s the limit in terms of looks we can create with high-performance vinyl siding panels,” says Rob. “A popular look for more rustic charm is white board and batten panels laid vertically, which resembles shiplap.”

Those looking for natural stone without the natural stone price tag are opting for architectural stone veneer.
“The manufacturing process for the vinyl stone panels is so sophisticated, no two panels look alike,” he adds.
No matter what need pops up during a job, from a broken gutter to rotted trim, since Curb Appeal has metal fabricators and carpenters on staff, the problem is quickly solved, allowing for seamless workflow.
Exterior Painting Trends
Whether or not the homeowner has a clear idea of the esthetic direction they want to go with their exterior, the crews tap into the many years and thousands of paint jobs they’ve performed to help them pick out complementary color palettes that will work best.

“The quality of the paint makes a big impact on how vibrant and long-lasting our paint jobs are, so we only work with professional-grade Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore paint,” says Rob. “Trending colors we’re seeing are classic whites and creams accented by black gutters and trim work. Homeowners also are taking chances with darker colors like gray, deep green and navy for allover colors.”
Before the painting begins, they make sure to do a thorough power washing of the home to ensure the paint will best adhere. And if you’re just interested in a smaller transformation, like going with a different shade for your doors, shutters, gutters or trim, they are experts at those, too.

What Neighbors are Saying
The lion’s share of Curb Appeal customers come back to them again and again. Here’s what they had to say:
“Curb Appeal always does excellent work. I have hired them probably 10 times in the past 12 years and they will continue to be my first call for anything home-related. They were great with keeping us updated about our roofing project and their whole team is always so friendly and a pleasure to work with,” says Wendy Henoch.
Installing gutter guards was the home improvement job Pete Velotta put his trust in Curb Appeal to handle—and they did not disappoint. During the job the crew also repaired fascia and installed a bathroom exhaust vent system. “The team is fast, courteous and professional. Dave is a true professional and always has a great solution for any project or issue you may have.”

Safeguarding Gutters
Spring is an opportune time to take gutter cleaning off your to-do list for years to come.
“As a full-service operation, we’ve undergone factory training and certification through Shur Flo gutter guards,” says Curb Appeal Marketing Director Rob Drago. “We researched all the different models of guards on the market and decided this one had the most going for it. People don’t realize there are backups in their gutter system until it’s too late and water has stopped flowing through downspouts and may have affected the foundation.”

Made in America, low-profile Shur Flo aluminum guards fit snugly over the top of gutters to repel leaves and debris, while allowing water to flow through the system. They can be installed on any gutters up to 6 inches, and are virtually invisible from the ground. The 25-year transferrable warranty is a hit with homeowners, too.
