Is there any better way to enjoy the newly warm weather than by unwinding on a porch? If you’re one of those lucky porch owners, then relaxing outside it just a sliding door away. Make sure your porch, deck, or patio is looking ready for summer parties with these helpful items.
Different parts of your porch need different types of paint. To keep your wood floors looking fresh, decks need a fresh coat of water repellent or wood stain every two years. Deck wash also works nicely to renew the look of weathered porches and fences. Concrete or brick walls looking for a pop color need an acrylic latex paint—just make sure the surface is clean before you apply your roller brush. Metal objects, like storm drains, can also use a fresh coat of latex paint. But for the walls and ceiling of the porch, some simple exterior paint will do just fine. You can find a whole slew of colorful options at Home Depot (plus the paint swatches are free when you visit the store).
