Dreaming of low-maintenance homeownership? You don’t necessarily need to move to an entirely new community to enjoy the benefits of maintenance-free (or at least, maintenance-less) living! Just read on to discover a few simple steps that can help you achieve a more effortless experience at home. Take a look.

Add a Florida patio enclosure for easy cleanup and fall fun

White Aluminum's Florida patio enclosures help make Sunshine State living even better. Not only do they allow you to extend your entertaining space and spend more time outdoors, whatever the weather, but they also remove the need for frequent sweeping and cleaning of fall leaves, seeds and other debris that can commonly fall onto your patio. (Tip: Cover your pool, too, and it's even less maintenance you need to think about!)

For those who love outdoor views but prefer the comfort of a cool, air-conditioned home, you might consider taking it a step further with a beautiful sunroom with wraparound windows. 

Switch to siding, soffit and fascia for long-lasting results

Why devote time to painting and repainting your home's exterior every few years? Help your home's facade look its best for many years to come with the help of White Aluminum's vinyl siding and trim, which never rusts or requires painting, all while helping you embrace your home's one-of-a-kind style with different color and grade options. Our aluminum or vinyl soffit and fascia systems, too, give you an easy way to protect your home with no maintenance needed down the line, also available in colors and styles you're sure to love.

Consider a hardscape or low-maintenance landscape

Florida offers a lush, healthy growing environment for plants of all shapes and sizes - but if you'd like to spend more time enjoying your yard, and less time mowing or gardening it, a hardscape or low-maintenance landscape might be right for you! These unique outdoor environments make use of mulch, stones, pavers, succulent-style plants, water features and other additions that don't call for frequent (or any) care.

Once you make these low-maintenance switches, there's just one thing left to do - decide how you'll spend all that extra time on your hands! We hope that these ideas help you enjoy Florida homeownership to the fullest. Be sure to contact White Aluminum today to get started on these projects and many more.
