If you’re ready to give that backyard a makeover, this week on You Got This!, Andrew discusses several different budget friendly options for expanding the backyard into an oasis. On the previous show, upcycling and the use of pallets was covered; this episode focuses on easy to source materials that are typically budget friendly, that allow you to enjoy your outdoor space in the summer and fall, year after year.
Andrew happens to be a big fan of hammocks, a small investment that promises unlimited backyard naps; while other projects require a bit more energy and planning, outdoor pergolas also provide shade and entertainment options. Pergola kits can be purchased for around $2,000 and assembled fairly easily if you have a bit of D-I-Y know-how.
Whether it’s throwing down an outdoor rug to define the space, plotting out stone pathways with inexpensive and creative pavers, or creating a budget friendly but unique water feature, this online resource can help provide some guidance ->https://www.extraspace.com/blog/home-organization/diy-projects/diy-guide-to-a-backyard-makeover-on-a-budget/
This week Andrew also announced the expansion of ABT Plumbing, Electric, Heat & Air – he recently purchased JeffCo Plumbing, which will allow ABT to better serve South Placer county and beyond. After more than 30 years in business, JeffCo Plumbing has been a friendly competitor, and amazing service provider to his clients in Auburn and the surrounding areas. And it wouldn’t be an episode of You Got This! if we didn’t remind listeners, ABT is hiring. So if you know someone who is looking to make a change, and join an expanding company that offers great pay and benefits, send them to the ABT website and check out our opportunities.
