      The front door plays an essential role in defining the overall value of your home. You want to make sure that this focal part of your home is chosen right. How do you find the right match? Whether you are selecting a door for your new home or one that will replace the old one that you got, the choice you make impacts the entire house. Not only does it leave people curious about your home style, but the door and window of your decision affect the overall energy efficiency of your own home.

      Most modern homeowners are looking at the curb appeal and overall aesthetic value of your home, but the energy efficiency of their home has also become one of their concerns. Who wouldn’t want to have a beautiful home that’s energy efficient too? They would also want to get the door design that requires little to no maintenance at all. After all, the door that doesn’t match the overall style of your home can cheapen the total value of the house. Here are some tips on how should choose the right door and avoid making it stand out like a sore thumb.

      First, set aside a budget for it.

      How much are you comfortable spending for your door? Whether it is a maintenance requirement or you’re replacing the old one, it is essential to have a budget set aside for it. Some home exterior improvement projects go over the budget because there was no budget, to begin with. Splurging for the front door may seem like a valid reason until you realize that you spent too much on it. Make sure to set the budget before you go hunting for a door to help you make a choice and manage your expectations as well.

      Second, consider getting a wooden door.

      Wooden doors are a popular choice not only because they are sturdy but because they bring about a classic yet rich contemporary feels to your overall home design. The traditional oak wood will make a perfect door. Or you could opt for mahogany. If you are not sure which type of wood to choose for your entry, ask home exterior renovation experts in Edmonton. They might have a few ideas they could share.

      Third, remember to keep an eye on the material used.

      Once the budget has been set, it is important to look into the other details of the door of your home, especially the material it is made of. The material of the door has a significant impact on its efficiency and longevity. Think about its appearance, durability as well as its maintenance costs. These factors will help you determine if your budget is enough or if you need to tweak it a little to get the door to your dreams.

      Simply changing the door of your home has a significant effect on the overall value of your home. Keep these tips in mind, and you’ll soon find the door that’s perfect for your home.

          The first time I talked to Gord for an estimate... was in the spring of 2018. It took me a full year to actually make the decision to go ahead with the project and Gord was super patient about having to come out and measure everything a second time this summer. He also put me in touch with an electrician who did excellent work with us as part of this project. We had all of our stucco removed and new insulation put up and then hardie board and all of the trim pieces/window finishes done as well. Everyone who worked together to make this happen did an excellent job. If you live in Edmonton, you know that we had pretty terrible weather this summer, but it didn't feel like this project took longer than Gord originally estimated it would take so that was great! I had a couple of questions at the end and Gord was great at answering them and sorted out an issue we had with one downspout placement no problem as well. This commitment to customer service/satisfaction is so important and I am happy to recommend MCM. He was also super helpful when we were choosing a colour and had a swatch book fedexed over to us. Pricing: In comparison to the other quotes I got, MCM was the lower cost option for sure. Based on what the other quotes looked like it seemed like other places were really marking up the hardie board product quite a lot. It was an expensive project, but I'm very happy with it and believe it was worth the price!read more

          We chose MCM Contract Installations because of... their excellent reviews. They did not disappoint with their excellent work. The two roofers were punctual, thorough and very knowledgeable. Frank, the fellow that did the fascia, shutter and siding work was very conscientious and particular about detail. We are extremely happy with the job and highly recommend MCM.read more

          We have just successfully completed a full... exterior renovation project with MCM Home Exteriors. We replaced and updated all windows, roof, siding, stonework, soffits, fascia, eaves and downspouts. This was no small undertaking on a 2300 sq. ft home considering our start and completion date requests. The project began and concluded as per the scheduled timelines that we arranged with MCM. The quality of the workmanship is simply unparalleled and the quoted amount of this enormous project is the exact amount that we paid upon completion. This is a rarity in the world of renovations and demonstrates MCM's commitment to excellence and maintaining the trust of their valued customers. We have been solely working with MCM since 2003 when we were fortunate enough to begin our longstanding and trusting working relationship with the Owners, Managers and dedicated Crews. We would recommend MCM to those looking for professionalism in the realm of renovations and trades, particularly if you are considering a project but simply aren't sure what questions to ask and where to begin. We would trust MCM to work on our children's future home projects. That alone says a lot about our working relationship. The Auger'sread more
