Fire, shade, seating and kitchens
Outdoor living spaces for homes in Colorado Springs, Castle Rock and the towns between. Fire features, kitchens, pergolas and seating, laid out so the yard works like another room of the house.
Why layout comes first
The difference between a patio people use and one they walk past is layout: where the sun is at dinner time, which way the wind comes from, how far the grill is from the kitchen door, and whether there's somewhere comfortable to sit.
Colorado gives us cool evenings almost year-round. A fire feature and some shelter stretch the season from a few summer months to most of the year.
What we do
Most outdoor rooms combine a few of these around a patio.
Custom gas and wood-burning features, built in as the gathering point of the space.
Built-in grill islands and counters that bring cooking and hosting outside.
Shade and shelter that define the space and make it comfortable at midday.
Built-in seating that frames a patio and never needs to be stored.
Pavers, porcelain or concrete underfoot, sized for the furniture and the traffic.
Low-voltage lighting, planting and screening that make the space feel finished.
How we do it
We design the whole space first, then build it from the ground up.
We map how you'll cook, sit and move through the space, and where sun, wind and views come from.
Gas, power and drainage are routed before any surface goes down. Gas and electrical work is done to code.
Patio, walls, kitchen and fire feature are built on an open-graded base.
Shade structures, lighting and planting go in last, and we walk the finished space with you.

Pricing, explained
Every quote we write breaks the project down so you can see where the money goes. These four things move the number the most.
Kitchens, fire features and roofed structures are the big-ticket items.
How far gas and power have to run to reach the space.
Square footage and the material underfoot.
Stone, block, countertops and appliances come in a wide range.
Common questions
Gas lights with a switch, burns clean and can be used when wood burning is restricted. Wood gives you the crackle and the smell, with more cleanup. Check your HOA and local fire rules before choosing, especially in wooded areas like Black Forest.
Gas lines, electrical work and roofed structures usually do, and HOAs often have their own review. We identify what your project needs during your in-person assessment and build it into the schedule.
More than most people expect. With a fire feature, some wind protection and lighting, a Front Range patio is comfortable from early spring well into fall, and on plenty of winter afternoons.
Often, yes. We look at the condition and base of what's there and whether matching material is available. When an existing patio isn't worth building on, we'll say so and explain why.
