With the sun shining and summer in full swing, it's the perfect time to start planning your big projects. There are plenty of easy mobile home DIY projects you can take on this summer, but here are three easy ones to get things started. These projects require minimal tools, expertise, and materials, making them ideal for beginners and veterans alike.
Screening In Your Porch or Patio
Summer afternoons and evenings are perfect for relaxing outside and enjoying a cool drink. Unfortunately, this is exactly when all those pesky insects want to come out to play also! Nobody likes dealing with mosquitos, gnats, flies, and other pests flying around, which is why one great project to consider this summer is screening in your porch or patio. Make your outdoor living space even more functional and enjoyable this summer by keeping the bugs at bay with a screened patio, deck, or porch.
Getting New Skirting
Skirting is one of the most vital aspects of a mobile home. Skirting protects the underside of your home from inclement weather and intrusive plants and animals that can damage the underside of your home. Before you begin planning to replace your skirting, measure your home and use a certified skirting calculator to ensure you get a properly sized kit for your project.
Installing new skirting is not only an easy mobile home project to take on this summer, but also an excellent opportunity to refresh or mix up your home’s aesthetic. Like replacing your front door, replacing the skirting on your mobile home is one of the best ways to add immediate value and curb appeal to your property.
Remodeling Your Kitchen
Remodeling your kitchen doesn’t have to be an expensive ordeal where you spend thousands of dollars on new appliances and countertops. Buying and installing new trim for your cabinets or giving them a new paint job is an easy project to tackle and a good way to spruce up your kitchen. Even something as minor as installing new cabinet knobs or a shelving unit in your pantry is a great place to start a kitchen remodel.
New countertops (check out Formica or quartz options) and flooring (look for engineered hardwood) can also be very affordable and make a huge visual impact on your space. We’d also recommend replacing your old kitchen sink with a new, stainless steel one (pick up a faucet with an integrated spray head while you’re at it!) or treating yourself to a new range hood over your stove!
