Hidden Home Value: 7 Remodeling Projects That Pay You Back

When homeowners think about remodeling, they often picture the excitement of a fresh new kitchen or a modernized bathroom. But beyond the comfort and style upgrades, smart renovations can actually increase your property value — giving you a long-term return on investment (ROI).

At Affordable Home Remodeling, we’ve helped hundreds of Wisconsin homeowners turn their properties into both beautiful and financially smarter homes. Here are 7 remodeling projects that pay you back over time.

1. Energy-Efficient Windows & Doors

Replacing outdated windows and doors can slash energy bills while improving comfort and curb appeal. Our window lines not only look stunning but are built to outperform in Wisconsin’s climate.
💡 Average ROI: 70–85%

2. Updated Siding & Trim

New siding doesn’t just protect your home — it transforms its entire appearance. We offer durable vinyl, LP SmartSide, and composite options that instantly raise your home’s market value.

3. Roof Replacement

A worn-out roof is one of the biggest deal-breakers for potential buyers. A new roof adds peace of mind, protection, and resale appeal. Whether it’s asphalt, metal, or designer shingles, quality matters — and so does proper installation.

4. Bathroom Remodel

Bathrooms sell homes. From tile upgrades to walk-in showers and new vanities, small updates can make a big impression.

You don’t need a total gut renovation — refinished cabinets, new countertops, and upgraded lighting can completely transform your kitchen’s look and function.
🍳 Average ROI: 75–90% (depending on scope)

6. Deck or Sunroom Addition

Outdoor living is in high demand. Adding a deck, screened porch, or Four Seasons Sunroom extends your living space and creates a year-round oasis.

7. Curb Appeal Enhancements

Simple changes like new entry doors, shutters, or front porches make a huge impact. The first impression is everything, and buyers notice.
