Hardscape Path, Stairs and Retaining Walls
We recently wrapped up a fun and pretty complex hardscaping project for a family in West Knoxville. They have a beautiful backyard but had trouble accessing the area due to the slope of the yard and some difficult terrain. The existing concrete steps were way too tall for code and were beginning to crack and […]
Composite Deck and Cable Railing Build in Dandridge, TN
We got to build this beautiful deck overlooking the lake in Dandridge for a family that recently moved to the area from Michigan. They are looking forward to their summers on the lake and wanted a space that would allow them to spend as much time outside as possible. It was also important to them […]
Cantilever Deck Addition | Knoxville Project
This was a quick (semi-quick) rebuild of an existing cantilever deck. Some of the existing framing was in okay condition and some was completely rotted. We removed the rotted material and ran our new joists back into the existing framing of the house. Everything got covered in joist tape and then we finished up with […]

Poured Concrete Retaining Walls
We’re in the process of pulling the forms from the walls we poured last week. The walls ran from 1′ tall to about 6′ tall and are 8″ thick. Concrete is such a versatile and beautiful material. It works great here but can also provide a stylish backdrop for a residential outdoor living space or […]
Tongue and Groove Open Beam Pavilion Ceiling
I love the open structure of this stick built pavilion roof we built to house an outdoor kitchen on the pool deck of a client. We used 2×12″ for the beams and 2×10″ for the rafters. It’s decked with 1/2″ tongue and groove, leaving everything open so you can see the beauty of the exposed […]
Updated Playground For Kids and Adults
We loved getting to build this project. We built a paver patio under a pergola to create a new patio spot for dinner. We built a new walk way to the pool. We built new stairs to the screened in deck. We built a new playground area with rubber mulch. Fun fact… rubber mulch installed […]
Covered Porch and Deck in Knoxville, TN
We’re super happy with the way this covered deck turned out. We used open beams to support the roof, tongue and groove for the ceiling with a translucent stain to showoff the woodgrain and ran the decking on the diagonal to add a little visual interest. It’s a beautiful space for enjoying the backyard. Maximizing […]
Organics in Lawn Restoration
Before and after photos from a lawn restoration project for a family in the Hardin Valley area. The builder stripped all the good soil when they built this neighborhood, leaving nothing but clay and rocks behind. Our Client had tried for years to get grass to grow without much to show for all their work. […]
