Now that summer is here, it’s the best time to spend evenings sipping wine or enjoying a good book in the sunshine on your balcony. However, over the winter months, it may have been forgotten about. Worry not, though, as all it needs is a few things to completely refresh the space and make it somewhere you can enjoy for the summer ahead.

Here’s our guide to refreshing your balcony.



Refresh your balustrades

Whether you have wooden, aluminium or glass balustrades, it may be time to update it. If you would like to transform the space, switching up the balustrades on your balcony is a great way to do it. You can get frameless balustrades installed to provide a contemporary balcony with an unobstructed view. Framed glass balustrades are also popular as they are sleek and modern and can make your balcony even more beautiful.

If you’re looking for glass balustrades in Newport, the team at TSS Balustrade Centre is ready to help. We offer everything from framed glass balustrades to modular balustrade systems.

Sweep and wipe your balcony

If you don’t want to invest in a beautiful new balustrade system, you may just need to give your balcony a good clean. Before you put any new decorative pieces, furniture or plants onto your balcony, toss away any junk, sweep away the dirt and wipe the surfaces. Glass balustrades may need a little extra attention than other kinds of balustrades, but some glass cleaner will soon bring back their shine.

Add some greenery

One thing that will bring your balcony back to life is plants and greenery. You can decorate your balcony with a range of plants in all different sizes and varieties. You could even add flowers that will bring a pop of colour and remind you of the natural beauty surrounding you.

Choose furniture that lasts

Perhaps your old outdoor furniture blew away in the storm or began to rot. In order to keep your balcony looking great year after year, it’s important to invest in quality garden furniture that can stand the test of time. Wood like treated teak or cedar is a good choice, or invest in weatherproof covers.
