Patio & Outdoor Living Renovation

Decking, outdoor kitchens, pergolas, and full backyard renovations designed around an existing or new pool.

A pool is one piece of the backyard. Patio and outdoor-living renovation covers the decking, shade structures, outdoor kitchens, fire features, and landscaping that turn a pool into a finished outdoor living space.

This also covers renovating around an existing pool: re-decking worn or cracked concrete, adding a pergola or cabana, extending a patio, or reworking drainage and grading so water moves away from the house and foundation the way it should.

Outdoor living work is scoped and built alongside the pool project under the same single point of contact, so decking, drainage, and pool construction are coordinated rather than handed off between separate contractors.

Heavy spring and fall rain events are normal here, so deck grading and drainage around the pool are built to move stormwater away from both the pool structure and the house foundation, not just off the coping.

Where This Fits in Our Process

Patio and outdoor-living work is scoped during design alongside (or independent of) a pool project, so decking, drainage, and any pool construction are coordinated rather than sequenced by separate contractors later. See Our Process for the full four-phase build.

What to Bring to Your Consultation

Having a rough sense of budget range, a priority list of must-have features, and photos of the current yard (if there's an existing pool or structure involved) makes the first site visit more productive. Nothing needs to be finalized before then, that's what the Design & Planning step is for, but the more specific the starting point, the faster a workable design comes together.

Serving Pearland, Friendswood, Manvel, League City

A higher water table near the coast affects how excavation and dewatering are handled during a gunite pour, which is accounted for in the construction plan rather than treated as a surprise once digging starts. Shadow Creek Ranch in Pearland is a large master-planned HOA community with its own architectural review for backyard projects, while Friendswood and Manvel have a mix of HOA and non-HOA lots.
