The backyard we plan with you

One backyard. Every detail working together.

A deck should look like it belongs with your home and everything around it. We plan the stairs, railing, lighting, patio edges, and paths through the yard so the finished space feels connected and comfortable to use.

Choose with confidence

Compare the whole backyard instead of choosing one board at a time.

We bring samples to your home so you can see decking colors, grain, railing, and nearby patio materials together before you decide.

How we plan your project

Start with the deck. Plan the whole backyard.

We design the deck first, then make sure the patio, railing, lighting, gates, and yard access work naturally around it.

01
Walk your property

We look at the slope, drainage, access, and how your family wants to use the space.
02
Choose your deck details

Compare boards, borders, railing, stairs, and lighting before construction begins.
03
Tie everything together

Plan patios, gates, landscaping edges, and walking paths so the yard works as one finished space.

Questions homeowners ask

Know what you are choosing before the build starts.

We will help you compare the details that affect the way your deck looks, feels, and fits your home.

How do Trex and TimberTech compare?

Both brands offer several composite collections with different colors, grain patterns, board profiles, performance features, and limited warranties. We compare the exact samples and current manufacturer information for the options that fit your project.

Does composite decking need maintenance?

Composite decking still needs routine cleaning. It does not need the regular sanding, staining, or sealing associated with wood. Care instructions vary by manufacturer and collection.

Can the deck, patio, and railing be planned together?

Yes. Planning the deck, railing, stairs, lighting, patio edges, and access together helps the finished backyard look intentional and work better day to day.

What should I send with my project request?
