Built on Hard Work, Word of Mouth,
and Doing Things Right
Humble Beginnings.
Big Heart.
We started back in 1995 with basically nothing…
Just three of us, some basic tools, and this idea that people deserved great outdoor spaces for making memories.
We didn't have a fancy office.
Heck, we didn't even have enough money for good advertising!
We just had clean trucks with our logo, wore matching shirts, and promised to treat everyone's project like it was our own backyard.
Building Trust the Hard Way
Those early days were rough.
We worked crazy hours and spent rainy days handing out brochures.
But something cool happened... people started talking about us.
Turns out when you actually deliver more than you promise, word gets around.
The Complete Outdoor Living Experience
You Deserve
One team handles everything.
No contractors to juggle.
No compromises to make.
From custom pool installation to patio construction, we turn your backyard into a space you’ll never want to leave.
The Old-
School Touch
That Still
Sets Us Apart.
Funny thing is, while everyone else went digital, we stuck with hand-drawn designs and face-to-face meetings.
People loved It – and they still do.
Today, we're Sevier County's largest outdoor living company.
But we're still doing what we set out to do 30 years ago…
We’re still the same crew that shows up early, stays late, and cares like it’s our own home... and creating amazing outdoor spaces where families can make memories that last a lifetime.
Rooted in Family.
Built for Yours.
Behind every structure we build is our own story—a story of early mornings, big dreams, and a family that still eats dinner together after a long day on the job site.
We know how valuable time at home is because we live it, too. From coaching little league to Saturday projects with the kids, we believe the best moments in life happen in your own backyard.
That’s why every porch, pavilion, and pool house we build isn’t just beautiful; it’s personal. We treat every project like it’s for our own family, because we know how much these spaces matter.
Your backyard isn’t just where you grill burgers or store patio furniture. It’s where birthdays are celebrated, stories are shared, and memories are made.
And we’d be honored to help you build a space that brings your family closer together.
