Decks and Patios

The biggest reason design-build might be the best choice for you is it allows us to get to know your needs as a customer and then design a project that meets those needs within your budget.

Building Decks

Custom Design: Create custom deck designs tailored to the client’s preferences, considering factors like size, shape, elevation changes, and desired features such as built-in seating or planters.
Premium Materials: Utilize high-quality materials such as hardwoods (e.g., ipe, cedar), composite decking, or sustainable alternatives for both aesthetics and longevity.

Structural Integrity

Ensure proper support structures, framing, and anchoring to guarantee safety and stability, especially for elevated or multi-level decks.

Finishing Touches: Apply finishes like stains, sealants, or protective coatings to enhance durability and weather resistance. Incorporate features like railings, pergolas, or built-in lighting for added functionality and style.
Accessibility and Code Compliance: Design decks with accessibility in mind and ensure compliance with building codes, including requirements for railing height, spacing, and load capacities.

Constructing Upscale Patios

Material Selection: Offer a range of upscale materials such as natural stone (e.g., travertine, bluestone), pavers, or stamped concrete for the patio surface, considering factors like durability, aesthetics, and maintenance.
Site Preparation: Prepare the site by grading, leveling, and addressing drainage considerations to prevent water accumulation and ensure proper runoff.

Creative Layout and Design

Design a layout that maximizes usable space while integrating features like seating areas, fire pits, or outdoor kitchens. Consider elements like shape, pattern, and borders for visual interest.

Attention to Detail

Pay attention to craftsmanship and precision during installation, ensuring smooth transitions, tight joints, and even surfaces.

Finishing Touches:

Apply sealants or coatings to protect the surface and enhance color retention. Consider adding landscaping elements like planters, gardens, or greenery to complement the patio design.

Integration with Surroundings

Seamlessly integrate the patio into the overall landscape design, considering factors like flow, views, privacy, and connection to other outdoor spaces.

Each of these projects requires meticulous planning, skilled craftsmanship, attention to detail, and adherence to local regulations to deliver upscale outdoor spaces that meet the client’s expectations for both functionality and aesthetics.
