Florida homeowner backyards are full of unlimited potential. While most homeowners use professional landscaping services to make their homes look striking from the road, there are many different ways to upgrade your backyard that don’t cost an arm and a leg. If you want to DIY some backyard improvements this year before the summer hits try one of these four easy projects:
Add hardscape.
In Florida vast expanses of flat land is the norm. We have very few hills in the cities and suburbs which can make for some very boring backyard space. Add dimension to your backyard by adding a few boulders a swing set, or other pieces of hardscape to break up the flat ground. You can also do this by keeping as many trees as possible in your yard.
Create a winding path.
Your backyard can be a large flat space or you can transform it into a beautiful garden where magic happens every day. One of the easiest ways to add life and beauty to your backyard is by creating a path through the space marked by bushes, trees, and flower beds. By creating a winding path you create a place where adventure can happen any day.
Add solar lights.
Solar lights are some of the most inexpensive and low-maintenance lighting options on the market. Simply install them in an area with plenty of sunlight and enjoy the ambiance as soon as the sun goes down. Backyard solar lights can be installed in the ground, or you can invest in solar-powered café lights for trees, swing sets, porches, and other areas of the yard.
Paint your fence.
If your backyard has been looking dull for a while, consider changing the paint job on your fence. Switching up the color can make your yard look brand new, and spark some creativity in the rest of your outdoor design.
If you are looking for a total backyard makeover, consider adding or replacing a fence for your yard. This gives you privacy security and a new aesthetic feel to your home for a relatively low cost. To learn about your fence options in the Tampa area, give FloriFence a call today!
