When you think about remodeling or updating your home on a budget, it’s not just what’s inside that counts. Your garden is a perfect space to increase your square footage while simultaneously offering another area to gather with friends and family. I am currently doing my own research, pricing out TREX, labor cost and looking into some new improvements in my own yard for this summer. Building a patio or deck can add value to your home and enhance its enjoyability. Relax in the sun, cozy up to a fire pit, host a cookout, or brunch under your favorite tree – the possibilities are endless. And while patios and decks are often used interchangeably, they’re far from the same thing. Which begs the question – deck or patio: which is better? You can certainly create multiple areas which tie in nicely with one another. One thing to keep in mind is that wooden decks typically require more upkeep – power washing, staining, and sealing. Wooden decks are more susceptible to weather damage, fading and rot over time, if not properly treated. In any case, a patio or deck can both be a valuable investment in your home, as well as offer you countless opportunities to entertain, socialize – or just relax. When the time comes to upgrade your outdoor living space, do a little homework beforehand to make an informed decision that you – and your garden – will love for years to come! Nancy A.
