Curb appeal isn’t only central to residential properties. Commercial businesses like restaurants, retailers, law firms, and other companies need to take care of their curb appeal to attract customers. Here’s a look at the steps to revamp a commercial building’s curb appeal.
Clean Your Buildings Windows
The thing that turns customers off most is dirty windows. If you have cobwebs adorning the sides of your windowsill, have a boarded-up window, or see streak lines on the glass, you must reevaluate how you maintain your panes. A dirty window is an unappealing one. Do better by cleaning. Straighten things up by dusting and wiping the windows down with a dry microfiber cloth. Then, clean them with detergent. This creates cleaner glass panels and lets others see what your interior looks like before entering.
Improve the Stairs and Walkways
The worst thing businesses can do is fail to fix walkways and stairs. Not maintaining these things and ensuring the storefront is accessible can turn others away. Improve the stairs using materials that work well outdoors, such as stainless steel. Stainless steel is durable and works great outside. A benefit of installing stainless steel railings is enhancing your building style and adding materials that work in warmer climates.
Keep the Parking Lot and Sidewalk Clean
For customers to come and enjoy your service, they need to be able to access the parking lot and walkways. Move clutter immediately if it’s blocking someone in or preventing them from entering. Without caring as much for your sidewalks and parking lot, customers will take notice of a neglected parking lot and sidewalks and leave. You can start doing better for your business by assessing the sidewalks and parking lot daily and clearing messes so that drivers can park and guests can walk in.
Improving a commercial building’s exterior starts with identifying your key issues. Your problem could be uneven pavement. The other could be garbage lying around outside. Whatever your exterior issue is, enhance it by fixing the area up.
