Summer is in full swing, and Ohioans are celebrating the season by spending time outdoors. For many of us, this means enjoying some of the incredible outdoor spaces we’ve created right at home. From meditative gardens, to gourmet kitchen and dining areas, to fantastic playgrounds kids and parents alike can enjoy, backyard living is about privacy and connecting to nature. One thing that everyone can agree on is that the serene, private backdoor lifestyle begins with a great fence – brought to you by the best fence company in Columbus, Superior Fence & Rail.

There’s another thing that everyone agrees on: we’d all rather spend our time enjoying our beautiful outdoor spaces than maintaining them! Whether you’re talking about endless sanding and painting, mowing and weeding, or even routine watering, that kind of work is time consuming and hard on our bodies (especially as we get older). Deferring maintenance just costs more money in the long run, and hiring someone else to do it is getting more expensive every year. It’s no surprise that homeowners in the Columbus area are turning to the latest trends in low-maintenance backyards to help them spend less money on repairs and landscaping, and more time enjoying their serene outdoor spaces!

A Guide To A Low-Maintenance Yard

If you’re intrigued by the idea of a backyard that you don’t need to spend your weekends mowing, weeding, and endlessly touching up, you’re not alone. Low-maintenance backyards have exploded in popularity in the US, driven by high water costs and expensive professional landscaping, sustainability pushes, and the general desire to focus on the things that we love doing in our backyards: cooking out, being with family, and relaxing. Here are a few of the ways that families in Columbus are embracing low-maintenance living:

Not Your Parents’ Artificial Turf

For decades, artificial turf meant “Astro-turf” – that stiff, plastic-y, cheap material that felt more like a doormat than something you’d ever think about putting on your lawn. Fortunately, high quality modern turf grass is cut from completely different DNA. Just like the turf that many NFL stadiums use, backyard turfgrass, made from engineered recycled rubber, looks and feels a lot like a real lawn – except without all the mowing and watering! It’s also soft and forgiving as a play area. Pair it with a handsome, rust-free aluminum fence for a look you want to show off.

Replace Landscape With Hardscape

Maybe the easiest – and most popular – method to spend less time mowing and watering your lawn is to just have less of it to begin with! Exchange grass for versatile patios, especially in parts of your yard where you routinely have trouble growing grass because of sun, shade, or poor soil. Why fight mother nature when you can adapt and create a space to gather and relax? Expand your horizons with a built-in firepit (with seating area), outdoor kitchen, or pickleball court! Raised detached decks are a great way to eliminate lawn area, and a new composite deck is the perfect low-maintenance pairing with a beautiful Trex fence from Superior Fence & Rail.

Water Smarter, Not Harder

Not everyone is ready to completely abandon their lawns, and flower and vegetable gardens are as popular as ever. Watering our lawns and gardens doesn’t need to be stuck in the 20th Century, though! New smart irrigation devices take a hands-on approach to keeping your yard that let you sit back and enjoy the results. Through real-time weather monitoring, active soil moisture monitoring, and smart programming, these new irrigation devices can drip, spray, and soak while you use water more efficiently and watch your plantings thrive. 

Summer Is Young, Spend It In Your Serene Backyard

How many summers have gone by where you wished you spent just a little more time enjoying your backyard and a lot less time doing chores in it? It all starts with the perfect fence, letting the noise and rush of the outside world start to fade away.
