The summer is a time for relaxation and enjoying the nice weather, but it’s also the perfect time to get projects you’ve been putting off for some time done. By investing in landscaping projects and services you can create an even more appealing area to enjoy and relax in. In addition to that, a quality landscaping job can increase the resale value of a building by up to 14%, which means investing in landscaping services can actually be a long term investment that provides a decent ROI.
A lot of people want to make their yards more appealing, but they just don’t have the design ideas or know-how to do it. From firepits, to outdoor lighting to more complex projects, investing the time and money in outdoor and landscaping projects is certainly worth it in the long run. Here are three ideas for landscaping type projects you should consider this summer.
- Firepits: Outdoor fireplace deisgns are becoming more and more popular among homeowners in recent years, but there’s nothing wrong with good old fashioned firepits. Firepits are great for summer parties, get-togethers, and just relaxing. Not only do they keep you warm, but you can cook on them and they also help to keep annoying bugs and pests away at night.
- Unique Hardscapes: There are many simple things you can do to make your lawn look nicer, like simply keeping off it when its dry and brittle, but for the more adventuresome spirits unique hardscaping projects might be the way to go. Whether it’s a new retaining wall, complete lawn repair, or stone work hardscaping can make any location pop.
- Driveway Repair: Driveways are an important part of any home. Keeping them in good condition can be difficult, since they’re inherently being used all the time. While many might not technically consider it landscaping, driveways are a big part of the yard overall and need to be maintained properly.
Finding someone to do the work shouldn’t be too hard as an estimated 878,969 people are employed by the U.S. landscaping industry. Just make sure they have the right experience and qualifications to get the job done.
