Here’s what you need to know about how a seamless aluminium gutter system could affect the value of your property.
Your property’s kerb appeal is the impact it makes a big difference in how attractive it is and how likely it is to sell. And when it comes to selling ab house first impressions really do count, since research shows that nearly 40% of house hunters decide whether to look any closer at a property for sale from the comfort of their cars: the so-called drive-by viewing.
