Small Upgrades, Big Impact: Affordable Ways to Boost Your Curb Appeal

Looking to give your home’s façade a fresh, stylish update without overspending?

You don’t need a full renovation or a massive budget to make a real difference. Sometimes, small, well-chosen upgrades can completely transform the way your home looks and feels.

From adding decorative mouldings to updating window surrounds or accenting key architectural features, there are plenty of affordable options that can elevate your home’s exterior. These simple improvements not only enhance your home’s appearance but can also increase its value and make a lasting impression on guests, neighbours, and potential buyers.

In this post, we’ll explore practical, budget-friendly ways to boost your home’s curb appeal, proving that even small changes can have a big impact.


Gable Vents

Looking to give your home’s gable a quick style upgrade without breaking the bank? Our gable vents are a perfect choice with prices starting from $44.30.

Even our most budget-friendly option, $44.30 for a 250mm outside diameter non-functional gable vent, can make a noticeable difference. While simple in design, it still acts as a charming “look at me” feature for your home’s exterior.



Flat Bands
Our range of flat bands starts from $28.05 at 2.5m per length
Flat bands can be used in a variety of areas around your home. For example, they work perfectly as a middle parapet on a two-storey home, giving it a sleek, clean look. They can also be used for window and door surrounds and can even be wrapped around columns where present.


Profile Mouldings

Our range of profile mouldings can fit any budget, with our most affordable option starting at $31.70. Although it is a sloped band it still gives a clean, modern look for your home.

Perfect for window surrounds and parapets, it adds elegance without being over the top and gives your home that dressed up look you’re after while still in budget.

Sills
Our sills start from $37.40 for a size of 100mm wide by 30mm thick. The “create your own” option is fully customizable to this size so you can create your own design. Adding a windowsill with your own style is a simple way to give your home more character.

With these small upgrades, you can make a big impact on your home’s appearance while keeping everything on budget. The team at Outside Mouldings is here to help with the smaller jobs that make a real difference. We can help you enhance your home’s exterior without stretching your budget.
