Are you tired of your landscape or yard? Most people are not happy with their lawn or property but don’t really know what they can do to update and upgrade the area. Just keeping up with the same old trees, shrubs and rocks that you already have is one thing but making a plan and upgrading it is better. You can get the look that you have always wanted and increase the value of your house as well. Now you need to know what the options that are available to you when looking to update your landscape.
Matt Myette Landscaping Lists Ways to Update Your Landscape
Add Value With Hardscaping: Most homes have a yard and some shrubs or trees. They also have a slab of cement that can be small just in front of the door or a larger piece that acts as a patio. This is great but there are way more ways to use hardscaping on your property. You can have stone, wood and metal used in different facets. Many people choose to have a walkway set to get from one area of the yard to the door. This can be beautiful stone and pavers of colored and stamped cement. You can also have retaining walls built up so that you can use the area for planting flowers and other seasonal plants. When you add more hardscape to your home and property you are adding value. The reason is that these areas make the property more useful and people can better see themselves using that space.
Build a Freestanding or Other Deck: The other way to upgrade your outdoor space is to add an outdoor deck to your house. You can use the space right outside your back door for this amazing addition to your living space. Nothing is better to extend your house to the outside then a deck. You can use a beautiful wood beam to make a huge impact as well. It is a great place to add a table, some chairs and a BBQ. Now you can host an outdoor event and have the space to accommodate.
Landscape Lighting: You likely have lights on the outside of your house and that is it. The problem is that when the sun goes down your outdoor space is no longer useful. The way to use the area throughout the whole day and night is to incorporate lights in your landscape design. These light can help to highlight some of the trees and other plants that are in the yard. You can also add lights along the walkway and patio. These light will help to light up the space so that the party does not have to end when the sun goes down. Be sure that you have the lights planned out properly so they give you the effect that you want.
