BACKYARD OVERHAUL
Give your backyard the overhaul it deserves this summer.
Start by giving it a deep cleaning. This can be done with a high-quality pressure washer. Use your pressure washer to spray down the deck, patio, siding, garage, shed, patio furniture, and anything else that could use a good cleaning.
Afterward, we suggest filling a bucket with warm soapy water and washing down outdoor furniture and other features with a cloth or sponge. You can also use this time to clean your BBQ, update any backyard accessories, and install exterior lighting solutions. Before you get started, stop by your local Calgary hot tub store and pick up any hot tub supplies or hot tub chemicals that you may need to clean your spa as well.
GREENERY & LANDSCAPING
The greenery and landscape within your backyard can truly make or break the space. Having lush green grass can help improve the look of your backyard, while providing a place to partake in various activities. Nobody wants to pitch a tent or play soccer on scratchy, dead grass! By fertilizing, aerating, watering and cutting your grass, you can improve both the look and feel.
Of course, your lawn is only the beginning. You should also take bushes, trees, hedges, flower gardens and mulch into consideration when boosting the overall quality of your backyard. Trim your hedges, bushes, and trees, fill in some new mulch where needed, and tend to the needs of various flowers and plants. You might be surprised at what a little TLC can do!
On the other hand, if your backyard is on the boring and drab side of things, with boring grass and not much else, it might be time to hire a local landscaper! Your landscape should create an even flow throughout your backyard, enhance safety for residents and guests, and maintain a welcoming atmosphere.
SPA INSTALLATION REVAMP
Last but not least, it’s time to revamp your spa installation. Whether you own a hot tub or a swim spa, chances are the installation will need to be updated at some point or another. You can begin this transformation by cleaning the spa inside and out, including draining, refilling, and treating the water chemically. This is where the hot tub supplies and hot tub chemicals can really come in handy!
Afterward, you should look at the quality of nearby features, such as a gazebo or pergola. You should also take some time to replace or touch up any nearby accessories, like tiki torches, hot tub steps, the spa cover, or a storage container for cleaning products.
