Lots of families are foregoing the family vacation this year. Moreover, staying at home more often on average is becoming a way of life for many. We know parents dread breaking news like that to their families. It’s tough to take those crestfallen faces. You might be able to bring those beautiful smiles right back though. There’s a way that you can increase your family’s comfort level during these days without making a huge investment.
Are you curious where we’re going with this? Spoiler alert: Not one step further than right out your back door.
Create a backyard getaway
Inflation is taking a toll on all of us to some degree but we know how to weather a storm around here. Floridians are prepared to hunker down and push through this one as well. Tightening our belts and looking for ways to cut costs are at the top of everyone’s survival lists.
You might think that committing to the expense of installing an enclosure to serve as a special place for family and friends to gather and forget about what’s going on in the world for a while is frivolous, but we’d beg to differ.
If you haven’t enclosed your outdoor living area yet, this could be the perfect time to invest! The benefits that they provide your family are certain to increase their comfort level year-round! And after we get a handle on the economy and can spend more freely again, the benefits won’t diminish. You just may spend less time enjoying them. But on the other hand, your family might opt to continue hanging out at home solely because you enjoy your time spent there!
Privacy
The world is loud. Neighborhoods are too. Privacy screen enclosures create a sense of privacy that allows the goings-on in the neighborhood to fade into the background. Additionally, homeowners report that their sense of well-being rises as soon as they step through the door. That’s a huge plus factor—especially now, right?
You must agree that when your ability to relax increases it bodes well for all aspects of your life. The same is true for your family members. A strong family unit is a mighty force to reckon with. It gives your children the resolve they need to stand strong in this crazy world—no matter what their age. Spending time together talking, playing games, and even eating together strengthens the bond of family without you even realizing it.
Having a space that pulls everyone in is to your advantage.
Bug blockade
Bugs and flying insects are a part of life here, however, once your privacy screen enclosure is up, they aren’t going to penetrate the area any longer. No matter how hard they try. The finely woven screens prevent them from getting through. We’re talking about all types of bugs and insects. Even the noseeums that plague our existence daily, it seems, aren’t getting in.
Dirt and debris disappear
Sure, there’s going to be some dusting to do on occasion, but it’s not going to be anything like the days of old when you looked outdoors after a storm passed through to see storm debris scattered over your lanai—or worse, filling the pool. Our privacy screen enclosures keep that stuff out in the yard where it belongs!
UV protection
In the heat of summer, every patch of shade found in the entire state is coveted. Come on. Admit it. You’ve found yourself racing to be the first to claim one yourself more than once, haven’t you?
Our screens don’t protect you from UV rays entirely, but they do filter the sun you get so they affect you to a lesser degree. The comfort level within the space increases just by reducing the intensity of the sun.
Safety features
We have our share of wildlife and if you live near a sizeable body of water, you may have dealt with an alligator wandering across your property from time to time. Snakes are fairly common visitors in their own right and even the neighbors’ wandering pets can become a nuisance over time. Privacy screen enclosures create a barrier that keeps unwanted guests from getting into your personal space.
If you’re thinking from the inside out, your children will have a safe space to play nearby while you take a moment or two for yourself to relax without having to remain ready to pop up and chase them down. Moreover, you can let your pets out to enjoy the fresh air and nap in the early morning sun without worrying about them coming into contact with any of the above-mentioned unwanted guests!
Designing your space
A huge part of creating the perfect backyard getaway is the ambiance. It should cause an “ahhhh” moment when you step through the doorway. You want to be transported from the humdrum of the everyday and into a place that causes your spirit to soar the moment you arrive.
We can help you with that immensely and it’s included in the initial cost if you customize your privacy screens.
We can take any digital image—yours or ours—and apply it directly to your privacy screen.
Think about the realm of possibilities!
Your family could step out the door of your home and into:
- The tranquility of a tropical rainforest
- The eye-popping beauty of a garden filled with an array of flowers in full bloom
- Insert favorite place on earth here
- The excitement of a day at the beach complete with the sound of crashing waves if you locate an audio track
All you will have left to do once the enclosure is up is add your own finishing touches and voila! Backyard getaway, complete! Your family and friends are sure to “ooo” and “ahhh” at first sight—and that just may occur every time they enter the space.
Take some time to consider the importance of keeping your comfort level high while your family is living through these unprecedented times. A strong family unit is a force like no other. Those words are true. Remember them no matter what!
