Open floor plans have long been the popular choice for modern homes. Removing a wall between a kitchen and a dining room is one of the most common projects undertaken in remodels that results in the biggest impact. Removing barriers between rooms to create a continuous sightline can make a home feel as though the square footage is larger than it is – which adds value to the home.

Some homeowners are not only removing interior walls – they are tearing down exterior walls and replacing them with large glass doors. Tearing down walls by removing large sections of stucco, siding, and drywall and replacing them with massive, sliding (or folding) glass doors that open up a space completely adds many benefits to a home.

The Benefits of Tearing Down Walls (and Replacing Them with Glass Doors)
