An Okanagan backyard’s best friend: exterior shades and shutters

Your backyard or patio is more than just an outdoor space; it’s a sanctuary, prime for unwinding, entertaining and creating lasting memories.

As summer approaches, it’s time to prepare your space for another season of sunshine in the comforts of home.

While swapping out cushions, dusting off the patio table or laying down a new outdoor rug can get the process going, if you really want to take your space to the next level, consider installing exterior shades or shutters!

Protect your patio, enhance your comfort

Lounging on your patio is a delightful experience, but if your property is downwind of a close neighbor, you may sometimes feel like your privacy is compromised.

Exterior shutters can help eliminate this issue once and for all!

Enjoy your patio in peace without obstructing a cool breeze by installing exterior shutters.

Not only do they increase privacy but they can also give your patio a luxurious cabana-like feel, enhancing the overall appearance of your home.

What’s more, exterior shutters also have the added benefit of allowing you to adjust light penetration with ease. So you can enjoy fresh air without worrying about nasty sunburns!

Don’t want to obstruct your view? Shades are the answer

If you’re reluctant about obstructing a gorgeous Okanagan view, exterior solar shades are the way to go!

Solar shades come in a variety of fabrics and color options that offer a range of light diffusion while shielding you against solar heat gain so you can enjoy the natural beauty around you without the discomfort of intense summer heat. They can also be made with UV-resistant fabrics which keep harmful rays from damaging your expensive fabrics and furniture.

With so many customizable options, shades can completely transform a backyard by creating a luxurious look that adds value to your home.

And they’re not just for backyards, they’re perfect for the front porch too!
