3 Things Your Contractor Isn’t Telling You

Considering a new deck, patio, pool, or another outdoor project? For most homeowners, the most challenging part of starting an outdoor renovation project is finding the right partner who has the proper licensing, experience, and reputation to get your project done on time & on budget with minimal stress or hassle.  Finding the right partner who will complete a project with high-quality work from start to finish can feel like a challenge, but with the right tools and resources, the entire process can be simple, easy, and fun! This is why we’re sharing three things you need to know before you hire a run of the mill contractor to build your new outdoor living space in the Lehigh Valley:

• We aren’t envisioning the same outdoor living space

Most contractors don’t have the time, tools, or resources to help you see exactly what your backyard will look like. Oftentimes this leads to miscommunications that result in expensive change orders after construction has already begun.

We know that a design-first approach to your backyard transformation will not only allow everyone to see exactly what everything will look like, but will also layout the entire project into one comprehensive master plan. This proven process allows homeowners to know exactly what to expect and eliminates any surprises throughout the build.

• Your property might not be able to accommodate your visions

While it would be nice to think that building your new deck in Coopersburg, Pennsylvania will be a breeze, that’s not always the case. If your contractor has never dealt with stormwater management issues or has never built a deck on a sloped backyard, they might not realize the potential hurdles until it is too late. Unfortunately, this could result in a project that they cannot finish or expensive remediation attempts.

With over +25 years of experience, we have helped homeowners achieve their visions on the most challenging sites! When this family in Easton, Pennsylvania wanted to create an outdoor living space on a steep hillside without altering the historic property’s charming atmosphere we helped them complete a major excavation to provide a flat space then designed and built the backyard of their dreams!
