Summer Outdoor Home Services | West Michigan Guides
The warmer months bring us outside to enjoy the beautiful West Michigan weather. It’s also the time to spruce up our lawns, add a deck, and do some landscaping. Luckily we don’t have to go it alone…there are many qualified businesses ready to help us get our homes and gardens in tip-top shape. With proper planning, you’ll discover how easy and affordable it can be to give your property a face-lift.
LAWN CARE
If you want to enjoy your summer, call an expert to take care of your lawn. This can include everything from cutting your grass on a regular basis to applying fertilizer. You can enjoy a beautiful, lush lawn and be the envy of your neighbors. Thinking of an in-ground sprinkler system? They are so convenient and require very little work on your part. There are local businesses that specialize just in irrigation, and can set you up in no time with a sprinkler system that waters your lawn when you want. Landscape Contractors have all kinds of ideas for using natural materials to beautify the outside of your home. Rocks, grasses, and driftwood are all attractive additions, and local landscapers can suggest the right type of flowers and plants for your garden. Call a local Tree Removal Service if heavy branches need trimming, or if there is a dying tree that needs to be removed. It can be a dangerous job to do yourself, and better left to an expert.
AIR CONDITIONING
Nothing feels better on a hot, sticky day than the cool comfort of air conditioning. You sleep better and it automatically acts like a dehumidifier in your home. There are many different models and sizes available on the market today, and local West Michigan companies will be happy to meet with you on a unit that fits the size of your home.
OTHER SUMMER SERVICES
Adding a deck to your home not only increases its value, but it’s a great place to entertain during the summer months. Whether you’re grilling or just enjoying the outdoors, a deck is a great investment. Contact one of West Michigan’s licensed Contractors to discuss a plan for your new deck. In addition to treated lumber, many new materials are being used that are virtually maintenance free. This may also be a good time to remodel, install a fence, or replace windows…all jobs that can be handled by local contractors. Unwanted guests in or around your home? Leave this unpleasant task to Pest Control experts. Termites, ants, mice, raccoons, and skunks can all be eliminated quickly and safely. If your asphalt driveway is old and cracked, make it look like new. West Michigan Sealcoating companies are busy in the warmer months sealcoating driveways and parking lots, and it’s more affordable than you might think.
