Outdoor Living Upgrades for Late-Summer in Sheboygan
August in Sheboygan County is the perfect time to enjoy your outdoor living spaces — from late-night barbecues to cozy bonfire gatherings. But if your patio, deck, or backyard areas feel underwhelming, now’s the time to make upgrades that will enhance both your enjoyment and your home’s curb appeal.
With hardscaping and patio design services, landscape lighting installation, and seasonal planting, Sunny Stripes Landscaping can help you create the perfect end-of-summer oasis.
1. Refreshing Your Patio or Deck
Power Washing & Sealing
Over the summer, patios and decks collect dirt, grime, and stains. A thorough cleaning followed by sealing can make them look brand new and protect them from fall and winter weather.
Adding Decorative Elements
Consider outdoor rugs, planters with late-blooming flowers, and weather-resistant furniture cushions to add warmth and style.
Our hardscaping services ensure your patio or deck is structurally sound and visually appealing.
2. Enhancing Outdoor Lighting
Functional Lighting
Path lights, deck step lights, and spotlights improve safety and usability after sunset.
Ambient Lighting
String lights, uplighting for trees, and soft LED accents create a welcoming atmosphere.
Our landscape lighting installation services help you achieve the perfect mix of beauty and functionality.
3. Adding Seasonal Color with Late-Summer Plantings
Even in August, you can add vibrant flowers and greenery to refresh your outdoor areas:
- Mums and asters for bold color into fall
- Ornamental grasses for texture and movement
- Container gardens for versatility
Our seasonal planting services bring instant visual impact to patios, decks, and entryways.
4. Creating Functional Gathering Spaces
Fire Features
Fire pits or outdoor fireplaces extend your outdoor season into cooler fall nights.
Outdoor Kitchens or Grilling Stations
Perfect for hosting, with options from built-in grills to prep counters.
Our custom hardscaping solutions can integrate these features seamlessly into your landscape.
5. Maintaining Your Outdoor Spaces for Year-Round Enjoyment
Even after upgrades, regular upkeep keeps your investment looking great. Our seasonal landscape maintenance covers cleaning, plant care, and minor repairs so your space is always ready for use.
Late summer in Sheboygan County is too beautiful to waste indoors. With a few well-planned upgrades, your outdoor living spaces can become the highlight of your home — both now and into the cooler months ahead.
