The official first day of summer is just around the corner (June 21st) and it’s a great time to give the front of your home a cheerful boost and add some extra kerb appeal.
How? add some colour…..
Colour says a lot about you. From what you wear, your car and even to your front door, colour is a wonderful way to show who you are as a person.
Your current front door might be the standard white Upvc door that you inherited when you moved in, it may well be a GRP door where the colour has started to fade. Maybe you’ve been thinking of updating your front door but have been putting it off as there’s been other projects around your home that took president?
Well there’s no time like the present as they say….
Unlike the 80’s where every door on the street was white, there are so many different colour options when it comes to choosing your new front door.
If you like to keep up with current trends then you’ll no doubt know that pastel hues are “HOT” for 2019 so lets take a look at Solidor’s pastel range…..
