Summer is in full swing here in Springfield, IL, and there’s no better time to enjoy your backyard. If you’ve been thinking about upgrading your outdoor space, July is the perfect month to take the plunge and a new or improved deck is one of the best ways to add value, comfort, and functionality to your home.
At Capital City Home Improvement, we help homeowners across Springfield and the surrounding areas design and build decks that fit their lifestyle, their budget, and the way they actually use their space. Whether you’re dreaming of a quiet spot for morning coffee or a full-on entertainment area with seating, lighting, and more, we’ve got you covered.
Why Homeowners in Springfield Are Upgrading Their Decks This Summer
Let’s be honest…winters in Illinois can be long. So when the sun’s out and the weather is warm, you want to soak up every second of it. A well-designed deck gives you the perfect space to enjoy the outdoors, whether you’re grilling with friends, watching the kids play in the yard, or just relaxing in the shade.
Here are a few reasons July is the ideal time to start your deck project:
- Perfect weather for building and staining
- You’ll still get to enjoy it this season
- Contractor availability is usually better than spring
- More daylight hours = quicker build times
And if your current deck is showing signs of age, warped boards, loose railings, or peeling stain, it may be time to consider a replacement or major refresh.
What to Consider When Building or Upgrading a Deck
Every backyard and every homeowner is different. That’s why we take the time to understand your vision and needs before offering suggestions. Some popular features Springfield homeowners ask for include:
- Low-maintenance composite decking
- Built-in seating or storage
- Privacy screens or pergolas
- Multi-level layouts
- Custom railings and lighting
We’ll help you explore the options that work best for your space, style, and budget. And yes, we offer financing, too.
