Such a landscape also can serve as a point of pride and welcome homeowners each evening as they arrive home from work. Landscaping projects run the gamut from simple changes that can be accomplished on a weekend after- noon to more signifi cant and costly undertakings that require the work of a professional. Budget-conscious homeowners may be looking for simpler projects, and the following are some less costly ways to upgrade a landscape. • Add a pop of color with planters. Awe-inspiring col- ors can make a landscape stand out from surrounding properties. Flowers, bushes and plants may be the fi rst thing homeowners consider when trying to add color to their lawns, but planters can provide a more immediate way to give exterior grounds some color. Bold planters won't lose their color in a matter of weeks like many fl owers do, and homeowners can switch planters so the colors align with the season. For example, some pastel planters can evoke the spirit of spring, while orange planters can be fi lled with mums to give a landscape an autumnal feel. • Plant perennials around the property. Well-main- tained perennials grow back each year, making them ideal for homeowners who don't have the time or desire to map out new gardening arrangements each spring. Planting perennials also is a great way to add color around the property without breaking the bank. • Upgrade walkways. Though it's more expensive than adding planters and planting perennials, upgrad- ing old and cracked walkways is a great way to give a property a whole new look. According to the reno- vation experts at HomeAdvisor, homeowners typically pay between $6 and $12 per square foot for new con- crete walkway installation. Homeowners working on a budget can target spots where walkways have already cracked and fi x those areas fi rst before continuing the project piecemeal until all the old walkways have been replaced. • Plant to create privacy. Homeowners spent more time at home than ever before during the pandemic, and some might have grown tired of seeing what their neighbors are up to. Fencing might be the fi rst solu- tion homeowners consider when looking to make their landscapes more private. But new fencing installa- tion can be expensive, costing homeowners between $1,667 and $4,075 on average, according to BobVila. com. A more costly and natural solution is to plant trees around the perimeter. Speak with a local landscaping professional, who can survey the property to see which trees might thrive and provide the privacy homeowners want. Creating an inviting landscape doesn't have to break the bank. Various small and relatively inexpensive proj- ects can change the look and feel of a home's exterior.
