A patio is an extension of your living space and contributes to your home’s curb appeal. You can just keep a simple patio for outdoor seating, but it’s never wrong to want to spruce it up a bit. Allowing your outdoor space to look luxurious will improve its appearance (and your property value when you decide to move) while also letting you enjoy your outdoor space more.
However, building a fancy patio might also mean shelling out a huge sum of money, depending on your project. Suppose a patio remodel is not within your budget but you still want to make it happen. Here are nine tips to make your patio look luxurious without breaking the bank:
Add A Shade
Shades are staple in any luxurious patio setup. They can come as canopies, gazebos, awnings, or residential shade sails. Shades help you stay comfortable even when the sun’s out. But if adding one isn’t a part of your budget, you might want to consider adding a pergola instead.

On top, you can cover the pergola with canvas. On the other hand, you can a more open and natural element with climbing vines. A pergola adds a luxurious covered sitting area for you so you can enjoy your time in your backyard.
Power-Wash Everything
No matter how well-decorated your patio is, if you haven’t cleaned in a while, it won’t look luxurious. One way you can instantly give your space a quick refresh is by power-washing everything. This includes your walls, floors, roof and gutters, and even outdoor furniture.
Power-washing your exteriors removes years’ worth of grime and debris if you haven’t cleaned up in a long time. You can get a power-washer if you don’t have one yet, or you can get professionals to clean your exterior for you. A simple power-washing can give your home a fresh new start as you work on improving your patio’s redesign.
Choose Your Main Focal Point
As you decorate your patio, you’ll need to choose your main focal point. A focal point draws and holds the viewer’s attention using different design techniques or fixtures. If you’ve thought about adding different zones on your patio, putting them all together will make your outdoor space more disorganized. To make the entire space look put together, decide which zones you’d like to have, along with determining your main focal point. Read More…
