The Right Essentials Create the Perfect Atmosphere

There are a few essentials that really create the perfect atmosphere for a pool patio. These little things can turn an empty outdoor space into the best spot in the house. Here are a few pool patio essentials that will really increase your summer fun!

• Sound Systems- A great outdoor sound system can really enhance your patio experience. Pool parties, BBQs or even a lazy afternoon swim are all more enjoyable with a little music.

Another option for an outdoor sound system is a backyard cinema. You could even have a swim-in and watch movies from floats on the pool . All it takes is a screen, a projector or even an add-on to your phone or iPad and some sound. You can take family fun night or sleepovers to a whole new level!

Call a trusted professional like Landwork Contractors to install a sound system or help you choose the perfect waterproof mobile speakers. When you’re shopping for a new sound system, make sure it includes Bluetooth capabilities so you can simply plug into the system and unplug from the world.

• Storage- Every pool patio needs some kind of storage to keep it clean and safe. Each pool float, backyard toy, beach towel, comfy cushion, and pillow should have a designated place, outside your home. This will help cut down on messy, soggy traffic sloshing through your house. It can also help control clutter and prevent losing pool essentials. When everything is in its place, you can prevent falls and trips. Storage will also make your patio feel inviting, comfortable and relaxing. Many home supply stores have a variety of storage solutions for outdoor spaces. Look into these options or include them in your pool patio design or remodel.

• Bar Space with Outdoor Refrigerator – A nice bar space with its own fridge is an obvious essential to any pool patio. You’ll no longer have to go in and out of the house for drinks, snacks or ice. Plus, with a fridge and bar area nearby, guests can help themselves. You’ll have much more time to enjoy your family and friends when refreshments are within reach. You might even get the chance to relax by the pool!

Unwinding By the Pool is Easy

Days by the pool are the best part of summer. When you enhance your pool with these little adjustments or additions, unwinding after a long day is easy. You’ll find your friends, family and even you are relaxing more this summer. Landwork Contractors  can help you with pool patio designs, installations and remodels. Call us at 914-479-2537 before summer slips away. We’ll have you lounging by the pool in no time. You can even make an appointment online while you soak up the sun.
