Paul Smythe Ideas to spruce up a duplex porch area
4 July 2020 | 20 replies
HI @Paul Smythe, I think the biggest "pop" would come through- Wrapping the three beams (and possibly the header they connect to) in cedar- Replacing the vinyl siding in the gabled end with cedar shake shingle (or faux) or lap siding (Hardie plank)- Removing the storm doors and painting the front doors a fresh, popping color.If you were prepping this for sale I'd say do all three of these, and consider the shutters.
