New Year, New Yard: Upgrades for Backyard Spaces

Posted January 5, 2022 to Before You Buy: Tips, Advice, Checklists.

Happy New Year from Sierra Structures! We hope your 2022 is off to a great start so far. You may or may not have made resolutions of big goals for this year, but, just in case, we have created a list of ideas on ways in which homeowners can upgrade their backyard spaces in 2022 and how we can help.

1. Add an outdoor fire pit: The beauty of having a backyard fire pit in North Carolina is that you can use it pretty much all year long. Whether it’s roasting marshmallows, gathering around with family and friends to keep warm on a chilly night, or using it to grill, a great fire pit is a center of attraction. We even recommend designing seating arrangements around the pit.

2. Build a pergola: If you are looking for a partially shaded area to relax under or to have small events, you cannot go wrong with a pergola in your backyard. They are a classic touch, and the perfect place to snuggle up under on a hammock or patio love seat.

3. Design a planter: Whether your desire is to grow flowers, a vegetable garden, or both, designing and building a planter is a great project that will pay dividends. Instead of just digging into a plot of land, let’s get creative and build a structure that is aesthetically pleasing and functional such as a tiered area that coincides with a deck or fence.

4. Add a shed: Is your garage getting so overrun with tools, lawn equipment, sports gear, and other items that you can’t even fit your cars in it? It might be time to add a shed to your yard. At Sierra Structures, we can create other outdoor structures like a fence or deck that match your shed perfectly for a full, cohesive backyard experience.

This is just a small sample of ideas that will provide an instant upgrade to your backyard. To learn more or for a quote on completing an idea of your own, contact us at Sierra Structures. We’re here to make those ideas come to life in 2022.
