Deciding A Good First Impression

Have you ever wanted to make a good first impression for someone? It is a nervous feeling going on that first date or job interview. We want to present ourselves in a certain way to the person across that table.

The exterior of your home is your first impression. It’s what makes people turn their heads and say “wow.” It’s what gives a good or bad impression before your guests walk into the house.

Although the interior of your home is what makes it feel “homey”, the exterior is what draws people into the home.

When it comes to exterior, there are a lot of options to choose from. So how do you choose which exterior is right for you?

Here are the top 3 popular exteriors to choose from.

1. Stucco

It is no question that stucco is the most popular exterior for your home. SNG started as a stucco company and for 20 plus years, we have worked on numerous stucco projects.

Stucco is the exterior that does not require a lot of detail and is easy to install. 

It looks the most minimal. Although it is a messy project that requires a lot of prep, stucco

guarantees that your home is protected and long-lasting. 

2. Siding

If you are a person that loves adding details, then siding is a way to go. Siding gives a more elegant atmosphere when looking at it.

There are many different patterns to choose from when it comes to siding. You can choose horizontal lap siding, shake siding, vertical batten board and more.

Depending on how much detail you would like, the siding project could take longer to complete. However, the results are worth the wait.

3. Stone

You may not see that covers the whole house but it’s a nice detail to add.

Some clients would combine stone with the other exteriors listed above. SNG has seen homeowners combine stone with stucco (personally our favorite) and stone with siding. Depending on the structure of your home, combining more than one exterior will leave a good first impression.

Choose Wisely

Choosing the right exterior for your home or next project can be a tough decision. You would have to take in consideration the cost of the project and how long it will take. But no matter what exterior design you go for, SNG is more than happy and experienced to serve you for a great experience.
