The Best Summer Projects for an Outdoor Transformation

Summer is the perfect time to enhance the beauty, functionality, and value of your property. Whether you’re looking to create a stunning backyard oasis or just revamp your exterior spaces, now is the ideal season to get started. Here are some of the best outdoor projects to tackle this season.

1. Refinish Your Pool Deck.
A well-maintained pool deck enhances the appearance of your backyard and improves safety. Over time, Texas heat can cause cracks and fading in your pool deck. Refinishing can restore its look and functionality. Choose a durable, slip-resistant coating like WeCoat’s chip flake system that can withstand the harsh Texas sun and provide a cool surface for bare feet.

2. Upgrade Your Sprinkler System.
Efficient water usage is crucial here in Texas, especially during these summer months. Upgrading your sprinkler system can help you conserve water while keeping your lawn lush and green. Consider installing a smart sprinkler system that adjusts watering schedules based on weather conditions and soil moisture levels. These systems can be controlled via smartphone apps, allowing you to monitor and manage your watering schedule from anywhere. The right sprinklers will enhance the beauty of your landscaping while helping you to reduce water waste and lower your utility bills.

3. Add a Firepit.
If you’re like us, you may already be dreaming about the cooler evenings to come this fall. Now’s the time to make the perfect addition to your backyard with a firepit in preparation for those autumn nights. Choose a location with ample space and consider using natural stone, brick, or coated concrete to create a durable and aesthetically pleasing seating area. Adding decorative elements like string lights or outdoor rugs can enhance the ambiance, making it a favorite spot for relaxation and entertainment.

4. Create a Functional Outdoor Kitchen.
An outdoor kitchen can turn your backyard into a culinary paradise. Install a grill, sink, countertop, and storage to create a fully functional cooking area. Consider adding a dining table and comfortable seating to complete the space. You’ll have the perfect spot for summer barbecues and gatherings.
