5 Reasons It’s Worth it to Install a Patio in Your Backyard This Year

If you have always dreamed of a beautifully tiled outdoor patio but have hesitated to take the plunge and have one installed, now is the time to finally prioritize having it installed. At Mission Tile West we offer a wide range of tile styles and materials to help you create the patio of your dreams. You can also keep reading to find five reasons that you will be glad you installed your patio.

  1. A New Patio Can Increase the Value of Your Home
  2. One of the best reasons to have a new patio built is that it could have a significant impact on the value of your home. Think of it this way: You are essentially creating more square feet of usable space in your home. When you have a beautiful, functional outdoor entertaining area, it can be more than something to enjoy – it can be a great way to get a good return on your investment.

  3. A Patio Can Help Your Home Feel Less Cramped
  4. If your home is smaller than you would like but you do not want to deal with the hassle of adding on an entirely new addition, then an outdoor patio may be a great option. For example, consider a cramped, small eating area off a kitchen. Now imagine that the exterior wall was replaced with a sliding glass door, and outside that door was a beautiful, tiled patio. You can see that this would make the indoor space feel less cramped too.

  5. You’ll Be Able to More Easily Entertain
  6. What do you think of when you think of summer? Do you think of barbeques in the backyard? What about kids playing outside with a lovely sprinkler? It is likely that your summer dreams do not include a ton of time cooped up inside your home. When you have a patio, you can easily entertain on beautiful, summer days.

  7. You Won’t Be Taking on a Ton of Maintenance
  8. Another great thing about adding a patio is that it is a way to get a lot of livable space without having to take on additional cleaning and maintenance jobs. All you have to do to clean it off is hose it down. You can sweep off any debris very easily. When you use high-quality, durable tiles, you need to do little to no maintenance at all.

  9. Stay Cool on Warm Days
  10. One of the reasons that people often don’t want to spend time outside in the summer months is because it can get too hot. When you have a nice covered patio, you can stay cooler than you’d be if you were in the yard. You can even install fans to get a nice breeze going. Don’t stay indoors all summer just to beat the heat – have a new patio installed and enjoy Mother Nature.
