We guide you from discovery to construction with a transparent, milestone-based workflow that aligns design intent, budget, and schedule, reducing risk and ensuring every decision supports a cohesive, modern outdoor living experience tailored to your lifestyle.

  • Discovery Consult & Site Walk We start with a collaborative conversation and on-site evaluation to understand how you live outdoors, assess grading, utilities, exposure, and constraints, and map opportunities for views, circulation, privacy, and comfort, establishing clear goals for design, budget, and phasing.
  • Concept Sketches and Free 3D Preview You receive a complimentary 3D concept and preliminary layout that illustrate massing, zones, and flow, helping you visualize kitchen placement, seating, fire elements, and pathways while validating the program, approximate scale, and investment level before advancing into detailed design deliverables.
  • Detailed Scope, Schedule, and Fixed Proposal Once the preferred concept is selected, we define materials, quantities, specifications, and timelines, then present a fixed, line-by-line proposal and construction schedule that reduce surprises, protect your budget, and keep every stakeholder aligned from mobilization through punch list completion.

Modern Materials & Sustainability

We combine premium, low-maintenance materials with responsible construction practices, prioritizing durability, lifecycle value, and resource efficiency so your landscape remains beautiful, safe, and easy to care for with reduced waste, water usage, and ongoing maintenance demands.

Premium Hardscapes: Porcelain, Pavers, Concrete

Our specifications emphasize rectified porcelain, linear concrete, and modular pavers for crisp joints, consistent edges, and timeless geometry, paired with polymeric sands, edge restraints, and frost-rated mortars to withstand freeze–thaw cycles, heavy use, and year-round outdoor living demands.

Sustainable Choices and Low-Impact Construction

We source locally where possible, divert demolition waste, protect existing trees, and deploy low-impact equipment, while selecting longer-life materials that reduce replacement cycles, thereby cutting embodied carbon and helping your project deliver lasting environmental performance and value.

Drainage Subbase and Permeable Systems

Proper base preparation, geotextiles, and permeable paving options manage runoff, limit heaving, and prevent puddling, protecting your investment while supporting groundwater recharge and meeting municipal stormwater guidelines without compromising the clean, modern look you expect.

Outdoor Living Features

We design and build integrated kitchens, fire features, and shade structures that define purposeful zones, encourage year-round use, and harmonize with architecture, ensuring comfort, convenience, and style coexist in a cohesive, modern outdoor environment.

Chef-Grade Outdoor Kitchens

From gas lines and electrical circuits to appliance ventilation and weatherproof storage, our kitchens prioritize ergonomics, prep space, and durability, using porcelain-clad or stucco finishes and high-output grills to deliver restaurant-level performance without sacrificing refined aesthetics.

Fire Features and Cozy Zones

We specify CSA-certified burners, proper clearances, and wind mitigation strategies for linear or bowl-style fire features, creating intimate lounge areas that extend the season while maintaining safety, code compliance, and proportional scale relative to seating group sizes.

Shade Structures: Pergolas and Louvers

Fixed and motorized options provide adjustable comfort, UV protection, and rain management, integrating lighting, heaters, and fans within clean architectural frames that align with modern lines, maximizing usability without obstructing views or disrupting the landscape’s minimalist composition.

Water Management & Irrigation

Effective water strategies protect structures and plantings, reduce waste, and provide resilience during storms and drought, combining grading, drainage hardware, and smart irrigation to deliver reliable performance in changing weather conditions.

Smart Irrigation with Weather Automation

Controllers use real-time weather data, soil moisture readings, and seasonal adjustments to apply precisely the water your plants need, cutting consumption and preventing disease while keeping the landscape healthy and vibrant with minimal user intervention.

Grading, French Drains, and Swales

We reshape topography subtly to direct runoff, then supplement with French drains, catch basins, and swales as needed, protecting foundations, patios, and lawns from pooling, erosion, and freeze–thaw damage through dependable, hidden infrastructure.

Rainwater Harvesting Options

Capture and reuse roof runoff with cisterns and pre-filtration, integrated discreetly into the design, to irrigate plantings during dry periods and reduce demand on municipal supplies without compromising the clean, modern look of the property.

Permitting, HOA, and Codes

We manage documentation, drawings, and coordination with municipalities and HOAs to streamline approvals, protect compliance, and keep your project advancing on schedule without unnecessary delays.

HOA Submittals and Board Coordination

Our team prepares color boards, plant lists, renderings, and site plans tailored to HOA guidelines, communicates proactively with review boards, and resolves comments quickly so approvals arrive faster and with fewer revisions required.

Permitting, Inspections, and Documentation

We compile permit drawings, engineering where necessary, and specification sheets, then coordinate inspections and recordkeeping, ensuring utility, zoning, and life-safety requirements are met while minimizing schedule impacts and paperwork burdens for homeowners.

Utility Locates and Jobsite Safety

Before excavation, we arrange utility locates and establish safety zones, protecting gas, electric, and communications lines, safeguarding crews and property, and ensuring excavation and trenching proceed responsibly under applicable regulations.

Budgeting & Timeline

Transparent estimates, phased options, and milestone schedules keep expectations aligned, giving you visibility into costs, critical path items, and delivery windows from design approval through final walkthrough and handover.

Transparent Estimates and Allowances

We present an itemized estimate with allowances for variable selections, documenting assumptions and inclusions so you can adjust finishes or scope confidently while understanding how choices affect cost, schedule, and maintenance requirements.

Phased Construction Options

When needed, we stage projects into sensible phases—such as hardscapes, structures, and planting—so you can prioritize essential items, align with seasonal windows, and manage budget without compromising the final, cohesive result.

Project Timeline and Milestones

We share a clear schedule with design freeze, procurement, mobilization, critical inspections, and substantial completion dates, updating you weekly so progress remains transparent and decisions are made before they impact the critical path.

Quality, Warranty & Care

Our work is backed by rigorous standards, documented checks, and dependable warranties, followed by practical maintenance guidance that sustains performance and appearance for years.

Installation Standards and QA Checklists

Crews follow detailed installation manuals and inspection checklists for base prep, compaction, drainage, and finishing, ensuring every element meets spec and aligns with design intent before progressing to subsequent phases or final turnover.
