3 Design Tips for Building the Perfect Patio

At Buhrt Builders Inc. we have seen countless customers come in and ask us what they need to do to get custom decks built. They are often also interested in the patio builder services that we have to offer. We can provide them not only with the supplies and manpower to get the job done, but also the knowledge about what kind of materials are best to use. Today, we want to provide you with some of the best design ideas to get the job done right. 

Create Outdoor Rooms

Just because a space is contained outdoors doesn’t mean that it can’t serve a purpose. As a matter of fact, we highly recommend that people create outdoor rooms when they are setting up their patio space. This is to say that they should literally think about the space that they are using outside as an extension of their home. When they add yet another room to their home via an outdoor patio space, they are going to add value to their home and to their daily life. 

Include a Shade Structure

It is incredibly important to include a structure that provides adequate shade for when conditions outside get very hot. People need to be able to go to the cooling comfort that shade can provide to them in these situations. As such, it is a good idea to install some kind of structure that provides shade for anyone who is to sit out on the patio. A few options for this include: 

• Covered porch
• Pergola
• Sail shade

These are all great choices that will also provide people with the ability to escape from the heat that can come with the summer season. If people are able to sit in the shade, they will at least be able to keep themselves comfortable enough that they can remain outdoors with others. 

Consider a Fire Pit

A very popular type of addition to a patio at this time is a custom fire pit. People enjoy gathering around a fire, and it adds a delightful touch to proceedings. Those who are comfortable adding a fire pit or even a water structure of some kind should do so. It is a great way to get people together around a shared space and provide a little comfort and design to the whole thing. 

Fire pits may be used for warmth during the colder months, and they are simply a great option all around because there are plenty of people who will enjoy the warmth and look of a fire pit. It is something that they simply cannot have the chance to enjoy otherwise, but it can be provided by a fire pit when one takes the time to get it installed.
