Nate Berkus transforms the front of a boring home.
 


Nate made an unexpected house call and turned a lifeless yard in to a luscious lawn!

Transform Your Home Exterior
  • Replace chipped, peeling, outdated paint with a fresh exterior coat. Don't be afraid to paint bricks.
  • Paint any trim, garage doors and sconces in an accent color.
  • Add shutters to enhance the windows.
  • Replace your old front door! Make sure your new door is insulated and sturdy.
  • Remove dead or dying plant life. Create a natural border to your property with shrubs, vines, flowers and trees.
  • Build a grand entrance! One idea: a bluestone walkway, new steps, stone planters and a stone bench.
  • A new mailbox can make a nice finishing touch.
  • Special thanks and more detailed product information
