Picture this—you finally have a free evening, and you’d love to unwind outside. But your backyard doesn’t quite cut it. Maybe there’s nowhere comfortable to sit, or the cool night air sends you back inside. If you want to spend more time outdoors this summer, a custom patio and fire pit can completely transform your space, giving you the perfect place to relax, entertain, and make the most of warm nights.
Need More Space for Entertaining? Start with the Right Patio.
If you find yourself dragging out chairs or squeezing guests onto a tiny deck, it’s time to upgrade your backyard with a custom patio designed for entertaining. The right patio material not only enhances your outdoor space but also ensures durability and easy maintenance.
Here are some of the best options for a stylish and functional patio:
Paver patios – Durable, stylish, and available in endless colors and patterns, paver patio installation is perfect for homeowners who want a custom, long-lasting design.
Stamped concrete patios – If you love the look of stone or brick but want a more affordable option, stamped concrete patios can mimic high-end materials with customizable textures and colors.
Natural stone patios – Flagstone and bluestone patios offer a rustic, high-end look that blends beautifully with landscaping.
Pair your patio with built-in seating, an outdoor dining area, or even a pergola for shade, and you’ll have the ultimate entertainment space.
Want to Stay Outside Longer? A Fire Pit Changes Everything.
Cooler nights shouldn’t send you indoors. Adding a backyard fire pit keeps you warm while creating a natural gathering spot. Whether you want the crackling ambiance of a wood-burning fire pit or the convenience of a gas fire pit, this feature extends the usability of your outdoor space beyond summer. It’s perfect for roasting marshmallows, hosting late-night conversations, or just unwinding after a long day.
Set the Mood with Outdoor Lighting & Audio.
Even the best-designed patio won’t get much use if your backyard is too dark. The right outdoor lighting solutions make your space both beautiful and functional. Consider adding:
Pathway lights to guide guests safely around your yard
Uplighting to highlight trees, fire pits, or architectural features
Outdoor speakers to create the perfect ambience.
We recommend Coastal Source outdoor lighting and audio, known for its high-quality, weather-resistant designs that enhance your space year-round.
