If you want to enhance your outdoor living space as well as the interior, there are countless ways to add functionality and aesthetic appeal with DIY building projects. You can transform an empty backyard into a custom oasis in a variety of ways.
To get started, here are some ideas for backyard building projects to try:
Whether you want to grow herbs, veggies, flowers or a mixture of all three, raised garden beds are a perfect way to start your backyard garden. Constructing garden beds with wood is a simple building project, only requiring a few basic tools and lumber. Add soil and your choice of plants for a dedicated gardening space you can use all year.
If you need stylish shelter in your backyard, consider building your own pergola. You can construct a functional pergola during a single weekend using any number of free plans available online. Or, for a more out-of-the-box solution, try a DIY pergola kit including full project instructions and materials. Regardless of what you use to build your pergola, you’ll transform your backyard and functional space with timeless charm.
Outdoor cooking and dining is the perfect way to get the most out of your backyard. What’s even greater is that it’s simple to DIY. You can build a full outdoor kitchen complete with grill, prep space and storage. Or, simply create a dining area to enjoy meals outdoors.
Try combining an outdoor table with modular bench seating with hidden storage space. Build a serving cart or prep table to go with your grill and have everything you need for an outdoor feast in your backyard.
Welcome to Long Island Living at its best! The South Shore of Suffolk County is a suburban area that runs along the shoreline of the Atlantic Ocean. Homes in this area consist of primarily residential properties. This area tends to be diverse in culture and income as it varies by hamlet, village or town. Residents along the South Shore have access to many beaches, parks and recreational activities. I pride myself on my honesty, integrity, hard work and personal service. My first career was in education, starting as a teacher then finishing as a guidance counselor and achieving my Master’s and two PD's. In 1986, I began my real estate career. In a sense, I am still an educator and offering guidance; this time I am outside of the classroom educating my clients on the selling and purchasing processes; which have become so complicated recently and guiding them safely through the confusing and ever-changing real estate market. It is very satisfying to me to help people with not only the greatest financial asset in their lives but their greatest emotional asset; where they celebrate holidays, raise their families and live their lives. I take the needs of my clients very seriously and as a result, I am proud to say, over 90% of my sales are the result of referrals and recommendations. Primarily, my areas of service are the Townships of Babylon and Islip on Long Island’s beautiful South Shore, near pristine beaches and wonderful boating, yet only 55 minutes from Manhattan; truly the best of both worlds. I'm a graduate of the Real Estate Institute and am certified as a Senior Real Estate Specialist. I also hold a license as a Notary Public. Please feel free to call or visit so I can help you fulfill your real estate dreams. I am a Full Service Licensed Real Estate Associate Broker and provide the following: Free appraisal Rental Mortgages International relocation services Sales Home warranty New homes Free school report Water front specialist Notary public Please feel free to call or visit so I can help you fulfill your real estate dreams.
For every sales transaction, a portion of my commission will be donated to Pronto of Long Island, a nonprofit community outreach center who feed the hungry, clothe the needy and provide hope for our neighbors. https://www.prontolongisland.org/
