Now that it’s getting a little cooler, you may be in a better frame of mind to consider all the possibilities for a year-round patio. During the summer it’s too easy to focus on an uncovered, open-air patio.
When the weather is warm, that’s where you want to spend your time. You may forget to think about a patio in the cooler months. But, just about this time of year, when you’re not quite ready to give up your summer lifestyle, you’ll be wishing you had a year-round patio.
When you’re planning your patio design, you’ll want to really consider all of the seasons. If you live in Pretoria, or anywhere around Gauteng, you understand the changing of seasons. You’ll need to take into consideration which seasons you want to enjoy your patio.
Spring/ Summer
During the summer and spring, it’s nice to spend time outside on a patio. When the birds are chirping and the sun is shining, you may want an area to relax outdoors. A patio is also the perfect place for gatherings.
Fall
During the fall, the temperatures start to cool off. The fall is the perfect time for a covered patio or an outdoor patio with a fireplace. They provide a space to hang out and enjoy crisp nights. Toward the end of the fall, you may want something that provides a little bit more protection.
Winter
Once it is truly winter, you may start to really wish you had an attached screened porch. You can still have a relaxing place to hang out while being near the outdoors. Since screened porches are enclosed, they are possible to heat, thus making them a four-season solution.
You can incorporate elements in your patio design for four seasons. Or, you can make your patio appropriate for a number of seasons, but not all. When you meet with our design team, we’ll be able to find something that works perfectly for you.
