Patios
Do you find yourself mowing too much lawn and using your grill out the back door and then back into the house to eat at the kitchen or dining room table. What has happened to your adventure, to your zest for living with nature. Diversion is good for the soul. Water boils at 112 degrees and you are lagging around the boiling point while pushing the mower or riding it around in the 111 degree hot weather. So why not gear up your thoughts, one tiny degree to 112, with another degree of effort your back yard could be very cool, with less lawn to mow! Stones may play around your head, but you need to entertain the idea of stones on those bare spots of your lawn. How much gas, oil, effort and fertilizer go on your lawn. With a little effort you can start saving money and enjoying your new patio!
Once again, I am encouraging you to step out of the box and off the seat of the mower, what would you want your yard to look like if you could do it inexpensively. There are all price ranges for putting in a stone patio. Some can simply be flat stones laid down each about a foot from the other in all directions creating a pattern for you. Get a cheap bag or two of wood chips or small white gravel or stones and fill in the spaces. It will be beautiful and will give you a whole new feeling that you can be proud of when outdoors. Put a table out there with an umbrella and you have just increased the value of enjoyment in a new space and have increased the value of your home. Buyers like to know they have an outdoor space that gives them an extra room outside.
What if when you started dreaming and your dream got out of hand? Yes, you could build a beautiful patio that when finished will not move or shift by using concrete in the spaces. You could do it with the help of a friend or reading a "How To" book. Finish it of with your picnic table on it, some neat chairs and you have a patio fit for a king. You don't have to stop there, but can become outrageous with other ideas for your back patio.
Go to some of our Home page tabs and read about all the ideas for your patio. It all depends on how much you want to enjoy it and invest in it. Let Strong Rock and Gravel show you some of the stone that would work for the project. We can also help fill in the blanks for ideas of what you want it to look like.
