Is Your Backyard Ready for Summer?

It’s finally warm in Virginia and the sun is staying out well past dinner, which means it’s time to start spending more time outside. While you might be ready to run outside to soak up the sun, or ready to invite your family and friends over for that first cookout of the season, your outdoor space might not be ready for you! Here is our checklist to get your backyard ready for summer:

Flower beds and gardens: Have you updated your flower beds and garden with spring and summer flowers? Have you pulled weeds that have sprouted during those early weeks of spring? Weeds and empty flowerbeds can make your yard look boring, messy and unsightly, and you won’t believe how much you can transform your space by updating your garden!

Outdoor living: If you don’t have a designated hangout spot in your backyard before, but are ready for a space to relax or gather with family and friends, now is the time to ask us about our outdoor living space options. Whether it’s a fire pit with plenty of seating, or a pergola to provide the perfect amount of shade over your outdoor kitchen or space to hang a swing, our designers can help you create the backyard you’ve always wanted.

Pavers: If you already have an outdoor living space but don’t have a navigable backyard or a way to get to it without walking through healthy grass or tracking dirt into the house, adding a paved walkway or patio may be the solution you’re looking for. Paver walkways are also great additions to side yards to guide guests to your backyard for events instead of through your home.
