If you are like 83% of Americans, you think that having a yard is important, and if you are like 90% of those with a yard, you agree that having it well maintained is vital. Indeed, whether you are gardening, lounging, having private family time, or entertaining 50 people in your yard, it’s important that all of the elements fit together seamlessly.
If you are dissatisfied with the way you enjoy your yard, it might be time for a yard renovation. The majority of homeowners upgrading their outdoor spaces are addressing their backyard, and for good reason! It is the place where we spend most of our outdoor time, with more than half of homeowners upgrading their outdoor spaces spending six or more hours there per week, relaxing, gardening or entertaining.
When considering these renovations, take into account these three yard elements which will make this a lot easier for entertaining, relaxing, and eventually, selling:
Fencing
Fencing is an extremely underrated yard element, and is especially useful if you have a pool. Not only does it vastly increase privacy from neighbors prying eyes or from the street, but it can increase safety by keeping unwanted people and animals out of your yard. Not to mention, it offers and investment return if about 65%. Investigating fencing companies and their options will yield to you a plethora of classy looking options for aluminum and wooden fences, which can be installed via residential fence installation services.
Patio or Decks
There is noting worse than an outdoor get-together ruined by sinking outdoor furniture and soaked shoes. Just because it rained yesterday doesn’t mean you should have to cancel — and having a dry, hard area outside simply makes eating outdoors a lot more enjoyable, in addition to allowing the better and easier use of a grill.
Fire pits
A protected fire pit extends the days which you are able to hang out outdoors by months sometimes — the winter damp is warded away by the fire and the stars gleam just as brightly.
Fences, patio and fire pits! Imagine the summer – and autumn, and spring, and most of winter that you will now be able to enjoy!
