Like it or not, the summer heat is here. Temperatures are rising, the sun is shining longer, and students are counting down to the last day of school. With all the work you have put into your landscaping, you will want to take some steps to make sure the beauty and bounty is protected during the summer months.

Our Gerard Construction team will be among the first to admit that there are a number of hot days around the corner. The August heat beats down on us whether we are helping you plot out the best placement for a new build on your acreage, or if we are measuring space for the new addition to your existing home. Seeing that, here are a few landscaping ideas to consider as you head outdoors to enjoy all your home has to offer.

While our name is in construction, we do offer a considerable amount of work in the field of landscaping. This is an important component of ensuring a home feels and looks complete, not only for curb appeal, but for your enjoyment to begin every time you take the first glimpse of your home when returning.

Spring in Texas has a number of reasons for spending time outside. The evenings feel a little longer with the time change, the temperature tends to linger in a comfortable range, and friends and family are ready to come over for crawfish, grilling, or a full barbecue. To make the most of this outdoor time, your patio, porch, and lawn may need a little bit of an overhaul and Gerard Construction can help provide the touch ups you need.
