With spring just weeks away, it’s a wonderful time to prepare the exterior of your home for warmer weather. As you spend more time outside, you’ll appreciate the small improvements that you make. From reupholstering your outdoor furniture to tidying the ground, here are a few steps that will make a big difference.

How to Get Your Patio Ready for Springtime

1. Clean the Surface

It’s always best to begin with a fresh canvas. After a long winter, your patio may still show signs of wear. There could be dirt, debris, and stains on the surface, and it may not look quite presentable just yet. Pressure wash the surface before you do anything else. Repair any damaged pavers, concrete, or bricks. Sometimes a quick treatment is all that it needs.

2. Refresh the Furniture

Has it been a while since you assessed your outdoor furniture? Instead of investing in an entirely new set, turn to an upholsterer to breathe new life into those beloved chairs and sofas. Furniture reupholstering is an easy way to give the patio a makeover. For example, replacing floral upholstery fabric with a brighter hue is an easy way to modernize a traditional space. Alternatively, you might want to try a different print in an opposing color palette. There are endless options that can make your furnishings look completely different.

3. Add New Decor

Consider the little touches that ultimately bring your patio to life. Add a few potted plants in your favorite colors to each corner. Toss a few contrasting throw pillows onto your freshly reupholstered outdoor furniture. Replace an old table with something that better complements the upholstery fabric.
