07 Jun Summer Home Upgrade: Ideas That You’ll Love
Are you ready for summer? With the warm months officially arriving, many people are planning their weekend getaways and vacations now. Most people can’t get enough of all the fun summer activities; from going to the beach to enjoying time by the lake to going camping or hiking or to the park, there’s a ton available to do.
While it’s a great time to go out and soak up that summer sun, it’s also a good time to tackle the home. You never get a more seasonable time of year than late spring and summer to get things done if you live in a four-season area.
Some people live in areas where home projects can get done all year round, and if that’s you, you’re lucky! For the rest of us, our ambitions when it comes to executing improvements, projects, or home remodeling ideas often are confined to being able to happen within a short window of time– just a few months out of the year.
At the start of summer is the best time to get those projects done before the true heat arrives. July and August are very hot months and if you time your improvements right, you can get your work done before the bulk of the heat arrives.
Summer Home Upgrade: Ideas That You’ll Love
Add a Deck
Can you ever go wrong with a deck? This is one addition to the home that you’ll never regret. Decks make the perfect area to relax and grill, enjoy a cocktail, host guests, and just enjoy that summer weather. If you love hanging out outdoors for a few minutes or even a few hours, you can get a lot of use out of a deck– which is one of the best things about it. Enjoy warm nights to your heart’s content!
Create a Backyard Play Area
If you don’t have one already, the kids will love this! Creating an area for them to play is a dream come true. Whether it’s a play set, a sand castle digging box, or swings or a little play house, this is one upgrade to your home and property that doesn’t have to set you back (that much).
Upgrade Your Air Conditioning
If your window box is not doing the trick or your central air is old, consider getting an upgrade. A full HVAC system is the perfect way to beat the heat. Central air conditioning is the way to go!
Consider Remodeling Your Bathroom
You don’t even have to redo the entire thing! Change a shower head, a shower to a luxurious bath, change the moldings or the paint shade. Add new tiles. Whatever you want to do to your bathroom, if you can get it done early then you can enjoy the fruits of your labor all summer long.
Add New Life to Your Kitchen
Updating those appliances can really give your kitchen a face lift! Remodel the easy way by switching your old fridge or oven out for a new one and celebrate by cooking pizzas in your new oven or making popsicles in your new freezer.
