We spend a lot of time and effort tending to our back gardens – whether we have a large green garden or a small courtyard, as a country we love to make the most of our own patch of land! But if you are thinking that the front of your house could do with a bit of a spruce up, here are a few ways to put a bit of love and care into the front of your home – you will be the envy of the neighbourhood!
Add some Greenery – Don’t leave all the plants to the back garden – one of the best ways to add a bit of brightness and colour to the front of your home is with some plants – put in pretty planters and window boxes, or if you are short of room, add hanging baskets.

Store your Car in Style – For many homes, a large part of the front of the house is taken up by the place that you park your car. Add a stylish new garage like these oak garages from Timberpride, or have your driveway spruced up and re-done – especially if it looking a little old and uneven!
Don’t Forget the Front Door! – The front door is the part of the home that everyone sees, so give it a bit of TLC. Why not go for a fun colour that stands out? Think about the rest of the colours outside of your home and pick a colour paint that works harmoniously with them. If you are unsure, try a few test colours first.
