Whether you need a task-oriented service, a luxury build, or a commercial maintenance plan, we follow a scalable framework. We are also fully equipped to bid and build from your pre-existing architectural designs.

FAQ's

What material is best for my patio?

The best material for your patio will be determined by a multitude of factors. Site requirements, design intentions, and budget are the three most important.  We recommend Unilock or Techo-Bloc pavers, granite, bluestone, flagstone and porcelain as great patio options here in CT.  

What is the difference between a 3-season, 4-season and screened in space?

A screened-in porch or enclosed porch has features to block out bugs, wind, and sun.  An enclosed porch may also retain some heat when using a vinyl wall system, but not much at all.   Now, a 3-season room takes it a step further and provides a lightly insulated, fully enclosed space with its own heating and cooling system (usually something simple).  A 3-season space will feel much more finished, and more like a home addition than an exterior feature; however, it lacks the robust structure and insulation to be heated efficiently during the colder months.  If you want the ultimate level of refinement and usability, a 4-season addition (or sunroom) is what you're looking for.  A 4-season space is designed and built to be efficient and useful all year.

How do you ensure drainage installations are effective?

We assess your soil type, grade, existing utilities, surrounding water, and water tables to determine an appropriate solution for your drainage problem.  You will also receive an industry-leading warranty on your installation, which is further backed by our client for life approach to business.

Do you provide landscape and hardscape maintenance services?

We offer maintenance services on our installations.  Additionally, we provide hardscape maintenance and commercial landscape maintenance.
