When is best to perform exterior projects?
Spring is a great time to execute exterior projects. Weather starts to improve and allows you to be ready to enjoy the outdoors in the summer and fall.
When deciding when to plan a project, not only evaluate the weather forecast for the execution day, but also for the following days to make sure that any potential finish or dry-time is not compromised.
What are other recommendations to tackle exterior projects?
Ensure that quality materials, especially formulated for outdoor applications are used. Outdoors is fun, but can also be harsh to decks, fences, pergolas, and other items. Choosing materials wisely will extend the life of your product as well as its physical appearance.
Remember too to secure the item to the ground. It is not uncommon to see, in a windy day, a trampoline or a similar playset move around the backyard out of control. Each item that you install shall be properly anchored to the ground.
Another important consideration is HOA (Home Owners Association) restrictions. Some HOAs require a written approval request prior to installing pergolas, game sets, or similar in your property. Prior to engaging a contractor or handyman ensure that all approvals (if required) are secured in advance.
