That Special Structure You've Been Thinking About? Let's Build It.
Custom construction that turns your dream structure into reality. Delivered when promised, respecting your budget, and matching your vision perfectly. Crafted with the expertise that comes from 30 years of bringing East Tennessee families' outdoor ideas to life.
When You Can’t Find What You’re Looking For—We Build It
You’ve pictured the perfect space.
Maybe it’s a private garden office. A screened porch where the family can unplug. A pavilion. A treehouse. A modern utility structure that actually looks good.
But finding someone who truly listens and can actually build it right is the hardest part.
Most contractors stick to templates.
We don’t.
We turn big ideas into beautiful, buildable spaces that make your entire property work better.
3 Simple Steps To Bring Your Vision to Life
CONSULTATION
We’ll walk your property and talk through everything you’re imagining. From Pinterest boards to napkin sketches—we want to see it all. You’ll get expert guidance on what’s possible, what to consider, and how to bring it all together.
CUSTOM PLAN
Our design team transforms your vision into detailed drawings and material options. You’ll know the exact timeline, budget, and how your structure will function and flow before we break ground.
BUILD
With over 30 years of experience, our craftsmen use premium materials and proven techniques to build structures that last—porches, treehouses, she sheds, even full-scale commercial spaces. Your project manager keeps you updated every step of the way.
More Than Just a Build. It’s a Place to Belong.
Every custom structure we build starts with a conversation—but it becomes something so much bigger.
Our clients across East Tennessee aren’t just getting pavilions, she sheds, or workshops.
They’re getting spaces that feel like the missing piece. A place to slow down. To gather. To create. To finally enjoy the yard they’ve always imagined.
At Sunshine Outdoor Living, we don’t just construct structures—we create places where life happens.
What Your Perfect Outdoor Structure Really Gives You
It’s more than extra square footage, it’s a space designed around the way you live.
Whether it's weekend projects in your new workshop, quiet mornings on the porch, or a playhouse that becomes the heart of childhood memories, the right structure doesn’t just fill a space, it transforms it.
Your Property Finally Feels Complete
That empty corner of your yard that never quite worked? That awkward space beside the pool? The spot where nothing seems to grow right? Your custom structure transforms these problem areas into the highlight of your property. Instead of walking past and thinking "someday," you'll find yourself drawn to this new favorite spot. Whether it's a morning ritual with coffee in your new pavilion or weekend projects in your custom workshop, your property finally feels whole…like the vision you've had all along is now fully realized.
Your Family Creates
New Traditions
Amazing how one new space can change how your family spends time together. That screened porch becomes where teenagers actually talk to you over evening games. Your custom fire pit area hosts s'mores nights that kids choose over video games. The treehouse you build this year becomes the backdrop for photos they'll show their own children someday. These aren't just structures…they're the settings for memories that define what home means to your family. Years from now, when someone asks "remember when...," it'll often start with something that happened in this special place.
You Get Back Time You Didn't Know You Were Losing
The right custom structure doesn't just look good, it solves daily frustrations. No more dragging patio furniture inside when it rains because your new covered space protects everything. No more rushing home from vacation to rescue cushions from a surprise storm. The gardening shed with perfect organization means tools are always where they should be, not scattered around the garage. Your pool equipment hidden in a custom housing looks better AND cuts maintenance time. These small daily improvements add up to hours each month that you get back…time you can spend enjoying your home instead of maintaining it.
