Adding a gazebo to your yard is a wonderful addition that adds timeless elegance. However, before you install an outdoor gazebo, be sure to do the following. This will ensure you have enough space and your gazebo will be beautiful for years.

Measure, Measure, Measure

Be sure the space you lay out for the gazebo is big enough before you start installing. Leave room around the gazebo to plant new flowers or shrubs. You should also leave room so you can easily repair and repaint the gazebo if need be.

Cut Overhanging Trees

Cut back any trees or foliage that is in the way of the gazebo. Make sure none are directly hanging over the gazebo, so that if storm damage occurs, the limbs will not fall on the structure.

Have Additional Supplies Ready

Determine what you will need if you want to install a walk way to your gazebo, add plants around the structure, or if you need stain or sealant. By having everything you need planned out before it arrives, you can complete your project faster and get to enjoying your gazebo sooner.
