Home for the Summer

Posted on July 10th, 2012

It’s summer here in Texas. The kids are out of school, people are taking vacations, and the outdoors are just ready to be experienced. How about saving some money and staying at home for the summer? Here are some ways to amp up your backyard for some summer fun!

1. Pool – This is obviously the number one place to spend time in the summer. The kids will love splashing in the water and the parents can enjoy a relaxing evening floating under the stars. A pool can boost your property value and on the long term can provide some cheap summer entertainment!

2. Patio – How old is your home? Ten years? Twenty? It may be time for a new patio! Replace old metal coverings with wooden ones for a more contemporary look and add a built in grill! Patios are great for outdoor parties and dinners and can help keep you cooler in the summer heat. Bring patio dining to your own home, instead of going to a restaurant.

3. Fire Pit – Bring the campfire to your backyard! Fire pits are great all year round for smores, hot dogs, or just sitting around enjoying a summer night. They can be designed to fit any aesthetic and are great for parties. They are even good for keeping away those pesky Texas mosquitoes. So, get out the tents and have a camp-out at home!

4. Open Lawn – What could be better than playing a game of soccer or football in your own backyard? Well, if you have dead grass or concrete slabs behind your house, it could leave you stuck inside. Clear out the yard and replace it with healthy, soft grass. This will not only give you a space to play, but will also make your backyard look more beautiful!

These are just a few of the ways you can enjoy your backyard this summer. If you’re looking to improve your backyard, Lawn Connections can help you design and create your dream yard. Give us a call and we can start working to help you enjoy your backyard a little more this summer!

Also, don’t forget about our referral contest in which we are giving away an iPad and free lawn care service for a year! Find the details in our blog post from last month.

The Little Things Count in Lawn Care & Landscaping

Posted on May 15th, 2012

The Little Things Count in Lawn Care and Landscaping When designing their own lawns, most people think about the big things. They decide what flowers, trees, shrubs, and other plants they want, and where to plant them. They may make arrangements in terms of watering, mowing, and the occasional trim…but to have a truly gorgeous lawn, you need to consider the little things. Or you can hire us to handle them for you!

One item people tend to forget is lawn edging. It’s not enough to simply mow the lawn. That will keep your grass from getting too long, but it won’t make your lawn look as clean and tidy as you might think. Trimming the edges (or “edging”) provides that look.

Many people would like to edge, but lack the appropriate equipment (a lawn edger) to do it properly. That’s where Lawn Connections comes in! Our expert crew uses professional-grade equipment to provide your lawn with a flawless finish. That’s in addition to handling the primary mowing, as well as tree and bush trimming, hedging, planting, pet waste removal, and other maintenance. Why spend your summer slaving over a lawn mower when we can handle it for you, freeing you up to enjoy your weekends or vacation.

If you’re ready to take your lawn to the next level with professional care, be sure to contact us today!

Outdoor Living and Different Ways to Shade

Posted on May 8th, 2012

Outdoor Living and Different Ways to Shade Summer weather will be upon us faster than you know it, and forecasters for the Dallas/Fort Worth area say it’s going to be a hot one. If you want to guarantee yourself some shade in your backyard, now is the time to get things started! If you’re not sure what kind of shaded area is best for your yard, consider these three specialties— or contact us for a consultation!

Gazebo
A gazebo is the most classic shaded building for a yard. When we say classic, we mean it: gazebos appear in millennia-old literature from all over the world. A gazebo can be as simple as a roofed area or it can be a complex and ornate structure with a raised floor, shades, and furniture for sprawling out on. We can build a gazebo to match your desired appearance and budget!

Deck
Like a gazebo, we can build decks that range considerably in complexity and design. A deck is a little more complex as it is typically built on to your home, but that also makes it accessible and fun! A deck is a very flexible location where you can host a barbecue or other event, or just lay out in the sun and take a nap.

Outdoor Kitchen
If you perked up when we mentioned barbecues in the last paragraph, this is an option you should seriously consider. Lawn Connections takes great pride in its outdoor kitchen and living spaces, and we can build you an outdoor cooking area that you’ll be proud of too! It doesn’t stop at the BBQ, either: we can set you up with a fireplace, bar seating area, and more.

Decks and shading can be both practically and aesthetically pleasing additions to your yard when designed and built by professionals. Contact us today to see what we can do for you!
