Is your backyard ready for the spring and summer? You may have it set up like you usually do, but have you always wanted to get more out of the space? If you haven’t transformed your backyard into your dream oasis, there’s no better time to start than now. There are so many different options for a backyard, and most of them don’t even take that much time or money. Here are a few ideas for transforming your backyard into a dream paradise and how Junk King of North Houston can help.

 

What Is Your Dream Backyard?

Before you can begin transforming the space, you need to know exactly what you want. Sometimes this isn’t easy, especially if you have a fairly small yard. One thing that some people get stuck on is that they see things such as patios, decks, and sheds as permanent parts of their yard. They aren’t. You can take down a deck or look into shed removal. While this may not always be something you want to do, you may want to consider it. For example, if you want to add a pool but don’t have space because of a large shed, removing the shed may be the right option for you. On the other hand, if you use that shed to store a lot of yard equipment and other things, taking it down may not be on the table. Still, it’s important to be open to your options.

Another thing to keep in mind is that you can do backyard renovations in stages. This isn’t necessarily something you can do with a kitchen or bathroom, but it is possible outside. You can change up your landscaping and take down a tree this spring, then build a deck in the fall or next year. If you’re on a limited budget, splitting your project into multiple stages may be the best option. The only downside here is that you may need to bring in a junk removal service several times.

Also, remember that you don’t need a professional to do everything. You can take out bushes, move flowerbeds, and even demolish your old deck by yourself. While you may need an expert to build a new deck or take down a tree, there are some things you can do by yourself if you have the equipment. When it comes to debris removal, though, you may need to call Junk King. You may not want to make multiple trips to the landfill or have the necessary vehicle to haul away all of the debris left behind from a large shed.

Start with Removing What You Don’t Need

The first step to building your dream backyard is to remove the landscaping and structures that are in your way. Start with things that are falling apart. You may have a really old shed, a kid’s playhouse, or a treehouse that is no longer used and is showing its age. Often, these old structures are on the verge of falling down on their own, so you may just need to bring in an expert at junk removal in Houston North.

With a quick call to Junk King, you can have those old structures gone. While you may do a search for “shed removal near me,” you want to be certain the company you work with is vetted and will do the job without any hidden fees. With Junk King, you know exactly what you’ll get—excellent service at an affordable price.

Taking out flowerbeds and bushes is also fairly simple. However, when it comes to large trees, you may want to have a professional handle it. This is especially true if the tree hangs over into a neighbor’s yard or has large branches out over your roof. The last thing you want is for the tree to come down unexpectedly and damage someone’s property. Junk King can also take away any limbs and other yard waste, so we’ll deal with those bushes, branches, and other debris for you.

While wooden decks can be disassembled and paver paths and patios removed, concrete is another story. Again, it may be best to bring in someone with the right demo equipment and experience. If you’d rather do it yourself, you may be able to rent a jackhammer from a local home improvement store.

What Do You Add to Your Backyard?

Now that you’ve cleared out the things you don’t need, it’s time to start adding in those items that will make your backyard perfect. There’s a lot you can do here, but you don’t want to get too carried away. You may want to leave some grassy areas, especially if you have children or dogs. They’ll need a place to play. Here are a few things you might add to your backyard:

 

A Patio

If you want to have an outdoor entertaining space and don’t have a patio, now’s the time to add one in. You may also want to expand the small patio you do have. Adding or expanding a concrete patio often requires hiring those who understand how to pour concrete. However, there is another option: pavers. You can purchase pavers at many home improvement stores. You’ll need to level the space, of course, but once you’ve done that, it’s really just a matter of laying the pavers out. You can pick different colors or sizes to make a fun pattern that reflects your unique style.

 

A Deck

A deck can be similar to a patio, of course, especially if you have a single-story home. However, if you have a two-story home, you have more options. You can add a deck off your upstairs bedroom to create a truly luxurious primary suite. Even if you don’t do that, you can still install a raised deck that’s attached to the side of your home and accessed via an outdoor stairway. This is a great way of adding more entertainment space to a very small yard. If you have a deck already, you can extend it. In some cases, you may need to look into deck removal and replacement, especially if the deck is on the older side.

 

Lighted Walkways

Adding a paver stone walkway or two helps connect your backyard visually, plus it creates a dry path for you to use after it rains. Pavers are very easy to use to create a path, plus you can coordinate them with your paver patio. After you decide where the pavers are going, you can place some outdoor solar lights near them to light up the path. While the lights may not always look right—you may not want to use them if your path goes through the middle of your backyard, for example—they are a great way of ensuring people don’t trip.

 

An Outdoor Kitchen

Now you’re moving into backyard transformations that cost more money! That said, an outdoor kitchen doesn’t have to be elaborate. If you already have a great grill, you may just need a few cabinets and an outdoor sink. If you really want to go all out, though, of course you can add a refrigerator, built-in cooktop, and more. It all depends on your budget and your dreams. An outdoor kitchen is the perfect addition for true indoor-outdoor living, though, especially if you plan on eating outdoors often.

 

A Pool

If you really want to spend some money and transform your backyard, put in a pool. This is going to be a major project, and you’ll have to hire contractors to do it. However, the end result can be an amazing space that you use all the time during the warmer months. If you’re putting in a pool, you’re likely going to need to work with junk removal to get rid of some of the things in your yard. You may need to remove a shed, take down a tree, or have a patio or deck taken out.

When a loved one passes, there’s a lot to go through. In the short term, you have to start telling family and friends the sad news, which can be very emotionally taxing. Then you typically plan a funeral or other type of memorial. Once all of these tasks are done, you’re still not finished. While you may have completed much of the personal part of the loss of a loved one, there are still the legal tasks to deal with—filing for any life insurance policies, closing accounts, and managing their estate.

The last of these tasks can be especially taxing because you may have to face selling their property, including their home. What do you do with all of their possessions? While you and other family members may want to take some keepsakes, there are likely things that no one will want. In some cases, they may have items that are simply no longer usable. If you’re in need of help with junk removal in North Houston, Junk King can help. Here are some thoughts on handling a loved one’s property and how to go about dispersing it.

 

Wait Until You Are Ready

Even with a will in hand, there’s an unfortunate truth about the probate process: it’s going to take months, if not a year or more. This means multiple court dates, paperwork to file, and other things that you will want to consult a lawyer about. The one good thing about this lengthy process is that it does mean you don’t have to immediately start sorting through your loved one’s possessions. You don’t want to put it off for too long, but you do have time to process your grief. It can be very hard to walk into a loved one’s home in the days or weeks after their passing and start sorting through their property without breaking down. Even if you want a few months, you’re still going to be hit with their loss. That’s okay. Don’t start cleaning up until you’re ready if that’s an option.

Sadly, sometimes it’s not. If your loved one was in an assisted living center or other care facility, they may not be able to give you that time. In that case, it helps to bring in another family member or close friend to lean on. Together, you may be able to handle this task more easily than if you were on your own. The workers at the care facility are also a resource you can lean on. They may be able to help box up your loved one’s personal items.

If you need to get rid of furniture or other large items, there are assisted living cleanout services available. Junk King doesn’t just clean out homes—we also assist in removing junk and other items from apartments, assisted living homes, and more. You don’t have to handle all of the work yourself.

Have Help

Dealing with the loss of a loved one isn’t easy on the best of days, and cleaning out their home is certainly not going to be one of those. If at all possible, have someone with you. Having a friend or family member with you will give you emotional support as well as make it easier to sort through items. They may be able to view items with a more objective eye and help you see what are priceless heirlooms and what you can let go.

 

Have a Plan

With time to help you address your grief and a trusted friend by your side, it’s time to create a plan for dealing with your loved one’s physical property. First, take stock of what you’re dealing with. Are there a lot of items in the home that you know are garbage? If your loved one had hoarder tendencies or has a basement or attic full of old, broken things, you may have a lot of garbage.

You may need to look into junk removal services, but you may also want to consider renting a dumpster. Junk King offers affordable dumpster rental that’s perfect for a home cleanout. Our dumpsters are designed to be small enough to fit in a driveway without damaging it but provide enough space for a large amount of garbage.

Why use a dumpster? It’s a good option if you have to sort through everything and separate out the good from the junk. During an estate cleanout, you’re likely going to come across things you need to keep but also things you don’t. Having a dumpster nearby means you can immediately take out the junk so it’s not in your way. You can declutter the property as you sort through items, which can be very helpful if you know you’re going to put the property up for sale once you’ve finished the estate cleanout.

If you decide not to rent a dumpster, be ready to give Junk King a call once you’re done with the cleanout. It’s very likely that you’ll have a good amount of stuff you want to get rid of, and we’ll be glad to come haul it away for you.

Get Firm Commitments from People who Want Items

One of the worst parts about dealing with someone’s estate is when a family member says they want something but doesn’t come get it. You may be stuck holding a bedroom set, large sofas, or other items for weeks or months while a relative says they’ll be over to get them “soon.” If you don’t have room for them in your home, you may end up holding on to your loved one’s house or paying for a storage unit while you wait.

Make certain anyone you offer items to understands that they need to pick them up quickly. You can’t hold on to them forever. While letting others take some of your loved one’s possessions is great, you’re the one who is stuck storing them, and that can cost you money.

 

Donating Usable Items

If you have furniture, appliances, and other items that are in good condition but that no one wants, you should consider donating them. This is a great way of passing on usable items, helping those in need, and protecting the environment. However, one roadblock many people face with donations is that they have to deliver the items to the donation center. Some organizations may have trucks capable of picking up large items, but many don’t.

However, this is where Junk King can once again help you. While we are a junk removal company, we do more than simply haul items straight to the landfill. We are dedicated to reducing our impact on the environment, and that means we donate or recycle as much as we can. When we pick up items, we will sort through them and set aside anything that is still in usable condition. We then take these items to one of our local charities and other partner organizations. They either use the items themselves or pass them on to those in need.

If something is damaged beyond usability, we look at whether or not it can be recycled. If it can be, we send it to a local recycling center. Even if the entire item can’t be recycled, we will remove any recyclable components. At the end of the day, only a fraction of what we pick up when doing junk clean up actually ends up in the landfill. We don’t charge our customers anything for donating or recycling their items. This service is included in everything we do, including our dumpster rentals.

This includes garbage, of course, but we also take old appliances, furniture, yard waste, construction debris, hot tubs, mattresses, electronic waste, and much more. If it doesn’t contain hazardous materials, we’ll likely haul it away for you. If it does, we can usually point you towards a disposal service that handles those types of materials.

When you search for “junk removal near me” you may find that many seem like they’re affordable, but once you get into the cost, you find a number of hidden fees and other charges. With Junk King, there’s never a question of how much does an estate cleanout cost. You’ll know upfront.

With a project as large as cleaning out a home, we will typically need to come in person to put together an estimate. If you only have a few things, we may be able to give an accurate quote over the phone or via text. However, if you have a good amount of items for us to haul away, we’ll need to see what you’ve got. When we do an in-person estimate, we bring our full crew and truck whenever possible. This means we can get to work as soon as you approve the quote. Often, we’ll have everything taken care of within a few hours or an afternoon.
