Make The Most Of Longer Days With These Summer Renovations In Miami

If you appreciate the extended daylight and sun-splashed fun of summer, why not make the most of it? The right summer renovations to your Miami home can take your summer to the next level. Browse the following ideas and start projects ideal for summertime fun, like upgrading your space for entertaining or keeping your interior more comfortable in hot weather.

Ease The Load On Your AC With Energy-Efficient Window Treatments

As much as you enjoy the summer heat in Miami, you don’t want your home to get too steamy. The higher temps can make your HVAC system work harder. Take some pressure off your AC this summer by adding energy-efficient window treatments. Window treatments that limit hot UV rays and outside temperature transfer help keep your home comfortably cool without putting unnecessary strain on your AC. 

Your top options for this style of summer renovation in Miami are:

• Polywood® plantation shutters with their proprietary insulation system

• Practical “honeycomb” cellular shades that keep heat against the window

• Motorized shades that close by themselves during the hottest part of the day

Install A Pool Or Poolside Shelter

There’s nothing more refreshing than a dip in the pool. If you have the resources for this preferred summer renovation in Miami, install a pool for a season of fun and relaxation. Your installer can help you explore a variety of features to design an amazing custom pool you’ll enjoy year after year. A pool also boosts your home’s value.

Do you already have a pool? Add a pool house, poolside bar, or just a freestanding awning for a poolside hangout. Potted plants, chairs, and tables for drinks give your pool a resort-like feel. 

Beat The Heat With Outdoor Shade

If you haven’t been enjoying your patio or deck on blistering hot days, put up an awning. A retractable awning connected to your house is the easiest solution. Using a hand crank or electrical switch, you can extend your awning for immediate relief on blazing hot days, making your outdoor area more enjoyable. 

If your patio or porch is already covered, but you still need additional shade or privacy, look into exterior screen shades. You can draw down these screens like oversized window shades to protect your family from sun glare, bugs, and debris. Your visitors and family will love playing and lounging outdoors without the sun in their eyes.

Enhance Your Three-Season Room

While many Miami residents update their main living areas, three-season rooms and sunrooms don’t always get the same attention. These rooms might become an afterthought, but you’ll love yours much more this summer when you make some simple improvements. For starters, some comfy furniture sets the stage for both entertaining and relaxing. Add your own style with some throw pillows and a rug, but keep decor simple. 

Sunrooms and three-season rooms are the perfect area for keeping a couple of houseplants. Finally, install some functional but stylish window treatments that open to offer you a view outdoors but also close effortlessly to protect against excess heat and sun.
