Summer Prep Series: Gazebos – The Ultimate Backyard Upgrade
Welcome back to our Summer Prep Series! This week, we’re taking your outdoor space to the next level with a fan-favorite: the gazebo. Whether you’re craving shade, charm, or a cozy place to gather, a gazebo can transform your backyard into a destination.
Why Add a Gazebo?
- **Shelter from the elements** – Enjoy the outdoors rain or shine.
- **Entertaining space** – Perfect for BBQs, birthday parties, or quiet coffee mornings.
- **Style & structure** – Adds visual interest and a sense of “place” to your yard.
- **Property value** – Outdoor living is a big selling point for buyers.
Types of Gazebos We Build
- **Traditional wood gazebos** with railings and shingled roofs
- **Modern, minimalist pavilions** for open-air entertaining
- **Pergola-style hybrids** for light shade and climbing plants
- **Screened enclosures** to keep bugs at bay during summer evenings
Consider These Upgrades
- String lights or built-in lighting
- Electrical outlets for fans, speakers, or mini-fridges
- Privacy screens or curtains
- Built-in benches or planters
Site Prep and Materials
We help you choose the perfect spot—flat, well-drained ground is key. Pressure-treated wood and composite materials work great in the Inland Northwest. We’ll take care of the foundation and anchoring so your structure is as solid as it is stylish.
Want Help Assembling a Kit?
We can also help you install gazebo kits from big-box stores or online retailers—making sure everything is level, square, and safe.
