With the summer in full swing, there is no better time to improve your garden area. A patio is a perfect way to do just that. Patio areas provide space for garden furniture, creating a stable platform without the legs sinking into the grass over time.

Patio areas can be made from wood or slabs, both providing a strong stable platform and are easily cleaned. Wooden decking may require more maintenance due to wood treatment required to help them last as long as possible in all weather conditions.

English weather isn’t always the most reliable, that’s why adding a type of shelter can be beneficial. An awning or gazebo will help keep you dry during a small summer rain shower. As the temperature gets cooler, try adding a chiminea to help warm you up or even roast some marshmallows on it too.

A patio area is a great addition to your home and will help get the family outdoors during the summer months.
