Details worth thinking through
Make your backyard remodeling project your own.
Start with your daily routine
Think about who uses the yard and when. An everyday family space may need open play areas, while frequent entertaining may call for a larger dining zone and nearby cooking area. Leave comfortable paths between them.
Balance hardscape and planting
Paving makes outdoor spaces usable, while greenery softens the edges. Consider shade, irrigation and how much gardening you want to do when choosing between planted beds, lawn and artificial turf.
Make the evening part of the design
Lighting changes how a backyard feels after sunset. Think about steps, paths and gathering areas together, with low-voltage accents that help define the space without overwhelming it.
Before we begin
Backyard Remodeling in Orange County: questions, answered.
How much does a backyard remodel cost in Orange County?
It depends on the size of your yard and what you include, from pavers and turf to masonry, a patio cover, or a new pool. Rather than guess, we give you an itemized estimate up front along with a free 3D design, so you know the real number before any work starts. A full remodel of a backyard of about 2,000 sq ft usually starts around $40,000 to $70,000, and the top end depends on the design. Adding an outdoor kitchen? See our outdoor kitchen and BBQ island cost guide.
Is the design really free?
Yes. When you build your backyard with us, the design is free. You get a professional 3D design of your yard at no cost, so you can see the finished space before you commit to construction. If you decide to start with the design first, we will refund you the full price of it from the project's price.
Do you handle the permits?
Yes. We pull all the permits and make sure the work meets your city's codes, from block walls and pools to drainage and structures. You never have to deal with the city yourself. The handling of the permits is included in our price.
Do you work with HOAs?
Yes. Many Orange County neighborhoods have an HOA with its own approval process, and we have a lot of experience working with them across the county. We work right alongside you to prepare and submit the plans your HOA requires, and we help get the project approved before we build, so everything stays on track.
What does a backyard remodel include?
We handle everything in the backyard: pavers, porcelain, concrete, artificial turf and natural grass, block and retaining walls, fire pits, outdoor kitchens and BBQs, custom sitting areas, patio covers, new pools and pool remodels, drainage, planters, and low voltage lighting.
Do you both design and build, or just one?
Both. One team designs, permits, and builds your entire backyard under one roof. That means one point of contact and a finished yard that matches the design you approved.
How long does a backyard remodel take?
It depends on the scope and how quickly permits move, but many backyards take a few weeks to a few months from design to finish. We give you a realistic timeline with your 3D design.
Can you remodel just part of my backyard?
Yes. Whether you want a full backyard transformation or a single feature like pavers, a fire pit, or a pool remodel, we can design and build it to fit your yard and budget.
