It will soon be time for family and friends to get together outside in the backyard. You want your backyard to be inviting and by adding a few improvements it will stand out. Here are just a few suggestions for this summer.
Add A Firepit
While firepits may enhance your own home experience, attract potential buyers, or make you the talk of the community barbeque, their value can also have added monetary benefits. Incorporating a firepit into your outdoor living space may add 15-40% to your home’s value. Plus, one of the best ways to spend an evening with friends and family is around a firepit in your backyard sharing jokes and stories.
Add A Deck
Adding a deck to your home provides you and your family with a place to host a party and adds aesthetic appeal to your home’s exterior. A deck gives you an additional place to enjoy the outdoors, plus it adds value to your home. While many home renovation projects only recoup anywhere from 50%-80% of their cost, multiple studies have estimated that the ROI for patios and decks can exceed 100% based on the size and materials used.
Add Some Plants And Bushes
A great way to increase curb appeal, privacy, beauty, and even add some food for you and your family is by planting some herbs, fruit trees, vegetables, and some beautiful flowers and bushes. Homeowners often ask how they can make my yard look better? Well, enhancing your landscaping with beautiful plants and bushes is the easiest way.
Add A Beautifully Lawn With Sod
Even if you have your backyard set up exactly how you want it, but your grass is dead or dying, it can ruin the whole look. Maybe you need sod.
Here are tips to improve the look of your lawn.
- Aerate your lawn.
- Water your lawn deeply and less often.
- Use natural lawn fertilizers.
- “Grass-cycle” your grass clippings.
- Cut your grass correctly and to the recommended cutting height.
- Compost your kitchen and garden waste for greener grass.
- If this is all too time-consuming, consider hiring an experienced landscaping company to help keep your yard looking great.
A landscape designer can help with the arrangement of outdoor spaces. Landscape contractors can install decks, patios, walkways, retaining walls, plantings, and ancillary structures such as pergolas and arbors. They can help customers transform backyards, homes, and properties.
