There are many reasons to look at adding a gazebo to your yard. Sometimes they are used as a covered patio area where you can enjoy the yard while outside in comfort. If gardening is your thing, a gazebo can be used to help define the garden. Also, in the general appearance of your landscaping, a gazebo will be a more beautifying object than simply a deck or patio. A deck gazebo will add a feeling of elegance to your deck. When having an outdoor party, a gazebo will also give you a covered area where you can set up either a buffet table or an additional gathering place for your guests. They are also perfect for formal activities like a wedding or a gathering place after religious ceremonies. The best gazebo for you will be one that is as functional as it is beautiful, and its romance can really set your home apart from others on your block.
At first glance, you may think that the best place to put a gazebo is in the center of your yard, but this is seldom the case. Typically, gazebos work best when they are near other landscaping features, not necessarily only gardens. They especially work well when placed near water, where you can enjoy the trickling sound of the outdoor pond or the view of your outdoor pool.
The size of the gazebo can vary, and it is based on many factors, including decorative balance, budget, and its purpose. A smaller gazebo will be intimate, but it will also limit your options for how it can be used when guests are visiting. A gazebo that is too large can overwhelm your backyard landscape. You want the gazebo to enhance your landscaping, not be the only focus of it. Your professional contractor will be a good resource when planning this project for your home.
While wood is the most common and traditional material used to build a gazebo, but there are other materials that can be used as well. Faux wood and aluminum are becoming much more common. Vinyl is also becoming more available as a building material.
