Why should I get a gazebo? If you are looking for a quick way to improve the appearance of your outdoor space and your garden experience, then a gazebo is the perfect choice for you. Gazebos provide your garden with a whole host of benefits, letting you enjoy the outdoors for longer. Can I put a gazebo on my patio? Yes, gazebos are best placed on a hard surface, such as concrete or paving slabs, making the patio the perfect place for them. Some gazebos can even be attached to your home, extending your living space during summer. Are gazebos good for shade? Yes, gazebos provide excellent shelter from the sun on brighter days. Most gazebo covers are made with material that has UV protection. Placing your gazebo or pergola in a location that does not have any natural shade from trees will help you get the best benefit from this shade.
We have put together a list of 7 ways a gazebo can benefit your garden.
1. Define a new living space. Think of your gazebo or pergola structure as a frame, giving you the opportunity to add definition to your garden. This gives the feel of an outdoor room, creating an inviting space to relax in.
2. Unwind in the shade. Nothing beats a cool patch of shade on a hot summer's day. Make sure you always have somewhere cool to sit and chill out by adding a gazebo to your outdoor seating area.
