Prepare Your Backyard for Summer
Published 5/2/2017
What better way to celebrate summer than with a great outdoor gathering? Summer is the best time to enjoy the outdoors and the company of friends and family. Get your backyard ready to host the best parties this summer with these easy preparation tips.
Power Washing
While this past winter in Chicagoland was not as brutal as years past, your home’s exterior has still undoubtedly taken a beating. Don’t send your guests running when they see the leftover residue still clinging to your home from winter. Wash away the winter dirt and grime with a thorough home power washing. Touch up the siding, deck, fence, and walkways for a clean and fresh summer look that will wow your guests.
Tend the Landscape
With the help of the rain we received this spring, your lawn is undoubtedly growing in beautifully. Make sure to trim it back to avoid harboring unwanted pests and to make a clear gathering place for your summer parties.
Also consider mulching around trees and plant beds to give an added pop of elegance and color to your landscape that will impress your guests.
Don’t forget the flowers! Eye-catching colors and unique petal shapes are this season’s best decorations. Plant flowers in your home’s landscape to take advantage of this inexpensive decorating idea.
With a neat and tidy backyard, you and your loved ones can get back to enjoying the best parts of summer. Call Bubbles today to schedule your home power washing and let us take one task off your to-do list.
