One contractor for the whole backyard

Most outdoor projects are really four or five projects: a patio, shade, a place to cook, lighting, maybe a deck. Hire them separately and you end up coordinating the gaps yourself.

We design and build all of it together, as a licensed Certified Building Contractor, and Dennis stays involved from the first sketch to the final walkthrough.

  • Full architectural drawings and permitting on every build
  • Official Luxury Pergolas partner
  • TimberTech composite and PVC decking
  • One-year workmanship warranty, plus manufacturer warranties

Meet Dennis

See it in 3D before you sign

In our design and pre-construction phase, we model your yard in 3D with the new pergola, deck, patio and lighting in place, day and night, so you can see the entire design before you commit to anything.

Then every build gets full architectural drawings and permitting.

How a project works

  1. Free in-home consultation

    Dennis walks your yard with you, listens to how you want to use it, and takes measurements.

  2. Design and pre-construction

    When you’re ready to move forward, we create your full 3D design, day and night, along with the architectural drawings. You see the entire project and get a clear written price before you sign a construction contract. Financing options can be included.

  3. Permits and build

    Your architectural drawings go to your city or county for permitting. We pull the permits and schedule inspections, then our crew builds it.

  4. Walkthrough and warranty

    We walk the finished project with you. Our workmanship is covered for one year, on top of manufacturer warranties.

Dennis and his team are great. They did our commercial project - they were efficient, fairly priced, and did beautiful work from design to execution. I'd definitely work with them again!
