The deck is an ideal space for you to enjoy and relax. You may have spent a great deal of time cozying up with your loved one or alone with just a cup of coffee. But as time goes the same old patio deck might not look as enticing as it used to look. You can certainly try to improve your old deck and give it a new look.

What features can I add to improve my patio?

There are lots of things you can do to give your deck a new look. Here are some ideas you may try-

• Repair- After being used for several years, your patio must need a lot of repairing work. So if there is any repairing work that you have been ignoring, get it done, and your deck will improve a lot. For example, if your deck board is cracked or broken, you have to change your board or repair it. If there is a broken stair, you need to take care of it.
  
  
• Clean and wash- You might not take care of your beautiful patio as much as you used to in the past. There could be weed sprung in deck cracks and other debris stuck in between boards etc. What you need to do is to clean thoroughly. You may go for a power wash if you like. This little thing will add to your deck improvement.
  
  
• Shade- if your open patio deck does not have a cover, how about adding one now? A roof will not only give your patio a new look but will protect your deck from sun damage and rain. A beautiful pergola might improve your deck style a lot.
  
  
• Outdoor kitchen- It's not a must, but adding an outdoor kitchen will make your patio deck the best possible feature. For a BBQ party, an outdoor kitchen will help you a lot, and you can save the hassle of running in the house for every little thing.
