Baltimore, MD
Overview
A great outdoor space adds usable square footage to your home without the cost of a full addition. We design and build outdoor kitchens, covered patios, pergolas, fire pits, retaining walls, and integrated lighting that hold up through Maryland's wet springs, humid summers, and freeze-thaw winters. Material choices matter here: bluestone and travertine for patios, ipe or composite for decks, stainless and powder-coated steel for kitchen frames, and proper drainage planning so you're not refilling washouts every spring. We coordinate with our masonry partners for stonework and handle the electrical, gas, and plumbing rough-ins ourselves. The result is a backyard that gets used — for grilling Friday nights in May, watching the kids in July, having coffee under the pergola in October.
Only if the base is wrong. We dig out 6–8 inches, lay compacted gravel base, and use polymeric sand joints. We've been doing this since 2010 — our patios don't sink.
For patios: bluestone if you want a high-end look, pavers if you want a more budget-friendly install that's still freeze-thaw stable. For decks: composite (Trex, TimberTech) is what most clients pick — no annual staining, 25+ year warranty.
If they're covered, yes — we've got clients grilling 8 months a year under a pergola with a retractable roof. Without cover, expect 5–6 months of regular use.
Simple paver patio: $12–$22k. Stone patio with seating wall and fire pit: $35–$55k. Outdoor kitchen with cover: $45–$95k. Fixed-price quote at the consultation.
No obligation. We walk your space and give you a fixed-price quote.
