If you want to get outdoors and enjoy the glorious summer weather, but your yard or patio area hasn’t exactly been on your agenda in terms of maintenance, there are ways of giving it a quick spruce up and ready for a family cookout or garden get together without hours of backbreaking, hot and heavy work.
Here are a few of our top tips for getting your outdoor space ready for guests in no time at all.
Give any patio or decking areas the once over
It’s amazing how much brighter a patio or deck area can look just with a quick clean and a little attention with a broom.
First, clear the area of any planters, grills or outdoor furniture and sweep away any dirt, dust or small bits of debris that might have accumulated over the last few months before giving it a swill with some warm water and an outdoor detergent.
If you have pets, make sure that you choose a product that is 100% pet safe as domestic animals can absorb chemicals through their paws and may require veterinary attention should they become unwell.
Pull up any dead plants or weeds
Getting rid of any unwanted weeds or plants that are past their best is a great way of neatening up your outdoor area quickly, and if the plants in question aren’t too large, you could always give the kids the chance to top up their allowance by tempting them with a few extra dollars to help out.
Make sure you have some gardening gloves to hand first as some plants can cause skin irritation to little hands.
Give that grill some love!
If you want to invite a few guests over and get that grill fired up, you might as well give it a good once over and oil seeing as you’re already out in the yard. A quick wipe down with a damp towel and a bit of oil goes a long way to brightening up your patio with minimal effort, so it’s a quick win when you’re already tidying up.
Create a focal point without getting your hands dirty
All gardens and deck areas need a focal point, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that you’ll need to get your hands dirty creating a decorative display of plants or water feature.
