With the weather warming up, many people will be spending more time outside. This season is great for people to spend time in their gardens, whether it’s gardening, children playing with their toys outside, or outdoor parties.
Of course, while the sun is enjoyable, there are also important warnings about too much sun. The harmful UV rays have been known to cause cancer and other illnesses, as well as make skin look more aged. In addition, the sun can damage valuable possessions like cars and toys, especially their colouration.
Another issue is that some plants your customers might like to grow don’t always flourish in direct sunlight, but prefer to be potted in a shadier area. This can be challenging to achieve if their garden is south facing.
There are solutions for your customers such as minimising direct exposure to the sun with the help of carports, verandas and other products we can supply at Milwood.
Carport To Reduce Damage To Car
One thing to note, is that UV rays can quickly fade a car. As these are some of the most expensive purchases your customers can make, and are often seen as a status symbol, maintaining a good colour on a car is a high priority.
Also, some of your customers might like to replace their car every few years and sell their previous car. The value of their old car will be higher if it isn’t faded.
Fading can be prevented by storing a car in a garage, but these can be highly expensive and garages are not always convenient. In addition, most people end up using a garage for other purposes, like storage, hobby areas, or games rooms. A carport is an alternative that is less costly, more convenient, and is an attractive addition to a house.
Not only will a carport protect the value of the car, by reducing fading, it will also add value to the home.
Customers can also use carports to store other items like gardening equipment, garden toys, etc. where they will be protected from damage by the sun.
Verandas can also be used by your customers in their gardens for the same purpose. They are also great places to spend time outside without being in direct sunlight.
So, if your sales team are facing some resistance because customers don’t think they need to protect themselves in the spring and summer weather, remind them that this sunny weather isn’t always good for them.
