Outdoor living & kitchen equipment

The pool is the reason.
The patio is where you'll live.

Outdoor living areas and outdoor kitchens are one of the fastest-growing home improvements in North Texas — and one of the few that adds value to your home and to your weeknights. We design the whole backyard together: pool, deck, shade, fire, and the kitchen you'll grill in every Friday.

01

Outdoor kitchens

Where the burgers happen and nobody has to go inside.

Built-in grills, cook tops, refrigeration, bar seating, and storage — sized for how your family actually cooks. Very few outdoor kitchens are 100% sufficient, so we plan the walk between your indoor kitchen and the grill before we pour a thing.

02

Cabanas & pergolas

Shade for the grown-ups. Home base for the kids.

A covered spot changes how long you stay outside. We orient cabanas and pergolas around west sun, north winds, and privacy so the space works in July and in November.

03

Decks & patios

Barefoot-friendly, cannonball-ready.

Decking materials, coping, and drainage chosen for hot Texas afternoons and wet feet. Generous enough for chairs, towels, coolers, and the traffic pattern around the pool.

Fire features

The reason everyone stays an extra hour.

Fire bowls, fire pits, and fire-on-water features that stretch swim season into fall. Smoke management and seating distances planned in the design, not after.

Seat & retaining walls

Seating that's always there, even when the chairs aren't.

Retaining and seat walls solve grade changes and give you built-in seating in the same move — the detail neighbors compliment most.
