Cool Down Your Home: Summer Renovation Tips for Provo

August 5, 2025

Summer in Provo, Utah, brings long sunny days and rising temperatures. As locals look for ways to beat the heat, home renovation projects become more than just aesthetic upgrades—they’re an investment in comfort, efficiency, and long-term savings. At Above & Beyond Remodeling, we understand the unique climate and needs of homes in Utah County. Here are our top summer renovation tips to help you keep your Provo home cool, comfortable, and energy-efficient.


Energy-Efficient Windows: Keep the Heat Out


Upgrading to energy-efficient windows is one of the most effective ways to keep your home cool during Utah’s hottest months. Old or poorly sealed windows allow cool air to escape and hot air to enter, forcing your air conditioning to work harder.


Benefits of energy-efficient window upgrades:


  • Reduce energy bills by minimizing heat transfer
  • Improve interior comfort with better temperature control
  • Block harmful UV rays that can fade furniture
  • Enhance curb appeal and property value


At Above & Beyond Remodeling, our window renovation services include professional installation of high-quality, insulated windows designed for Utah’s climate.


Modernize Your Insulation for Maximum Comfort


Proper insulation is crucial for maintaining a comfortable indoor environment year-round, especially during the scorching summer. Many homes in Provo and surrounding areas have outdated insulation, leading to unwanted heat gain.


Consider upgrading to:


  • Spray foam insulation for superior air sealing
  • Attic and wall insulation to prevent heat buildup
  • Radiant barriers to reflect summer heat away from your living spaces


Our team specializes in full house renovations and can assess and improve your home’s insulation quickly and efficiently.


Basement Renovation: Create a Cool Summer Retreat


Provo homeowners often overlook their basements as comfortable living spaces during summer. Basements naturally stay cooler than above-ground rooms, making them perfect for family rooms, home offices, or guest suites. Consider transforming your basement with our expert basement renovation services.


Key basement remodeling ideas:


  • Install moisture-resistant flooring for durability
  • Add insulated walls for extra comfort
  • Include egress windows for natural light and safety
  • Build a custom entertainment area for summer gatherings


Smart Kitchen and Bathroom Upgrades for the Season


Kitchens and bathrooms generate extra heat, especially when appliances and hot water systems are in use. Updating these spaces can help reduce heat and humidity.


Summer renovation tips for kitchens and bathrooms:


  • Install energy-efficient appliances to cut down on heat output
  • Upgrade to LED lighting, which produces less heat
  • Improve ventilation with modern extractor fans
  • Add water-saving fixtures to conserve resources during dry Utah summers


Our kitchen and bathroom renovation services in Provo and Utah County are designed for both function and summer comfort.


Roof and Flooring Improvements: Stay Cool from Top to Bottom


Your roof and floors play a crucial role in keeping your home cool. An aging roof can absorb and transfer heat into your living spaces, while old flooring materials can trap warmth.


Enhance your home’s summer performance with:


  • Cool roof technology or reflective coatings
  • Roof repairs to fix leaks and add insulation
  • Light-colored or tile flooring that stays cool underfoot
  • New foundation repair and framing for better air flow


Above & Beyond Remodeling offers comprehensive roof repairs and flooring solutions tailored to the needs of Utah homes.
