Backyard Design & Outdoor Living Space Planning

Your backyard has the potential to become one of the most valuable and enjoyable extensions of your home. At Sunset Construction, we specialize in backyard design and outdoor living space design for homeowners throughout Fresno, Clovis, and Madera, CA. As an experienced backyard design contractor, we help homeowners transform underutilized yards into beautiful, functional outdoor environments designed for entertaining, relaxing, and spending time with family and friends.

Whether you’re envisioning a custom patio, outdoor kitchen, masonry fireplace, pergola, retaining wall, or a complete resort style backyard transformation, every successful project begins with a well thought out design. Rather than adding features one at a time without a plan, we develop a comprehensive design that ensures every element works together seamlessly. This approach creates a backyard that looks intentional, functions efficiently, and can easily be expanded in future phases if desired.

Backyard Design Starts with a Plan

The foundation of every great outdoor living space is careful planning. Before construction begins, we work with homeowners to understand how they want to use their outdoor space, establish a realistic budget, and develop a design that complements both their home and lifestyle. Our goal is to create an outdoor environment that not only looks beautiful today but continues to meet your family’s needs for years to come.

As your backyard design contractor, we evaluate everything before construction starts, including:

  • Site evaluation & laser level survey
  • Patio layout and traffic flow, hand sketches
  • Outdoor kitchen placement
  • Fireplaces and fire features
  • Patio covers and pergolas
  • Retaining walls and grade changes
  • Concrete and decorative concrete finishes
  • Landscape integration
  • Lighting, electrical, gas, and drainage requirements
  • Future expansion opportunities

Planning these elements together prevents costly changes later while creating a cohesive outdoor living space that feels like a natural extension of your home.

Patio Design & Installation

Patios & Outdoor Living

Because of its convenient location and outdoor living feel, a patio is often seen as an extension of our indoor living space. Whether it’s made of stone, brick, or concrete, this paved spot is frequently the life of the party, especially when you add a grill, fire pit, or fireplace. With an outdoor kitchen and dining set, it can become your favorite eating spot, while an abundance of patio furniture and colorful decor turns it into the perfect sunny lounge.

What materials should I use for my patio?

With an outdoor space, your materials help dictate the overall style and feel, so make sure your patio accurately reflects the style of your home. Stone pavers and terracotta tile are common with Mediterranean houses, while brick is most often seen in traditional homes. Concrete works well with most spaces, so it’s a great option to use when you’re unsure what direction you’re heading. For a more dramatic look, consider natural stone overlays. (It can be cheaper than ripping out your old cracked concrete and pouring new stamped concrete.) After you figure out your foundation, decide whether you want a covered or uncovered space. You can add a pergola, arbor, awning, or trellis for some shade, or you can let the sun shine in and go without.

What should I incorporate into my patio?

Even though a patio can just be a paved slab, it can also be much more if you add the right additions. Fire pits and fireplaces are great for cooler nights, while an outdoor kitchen and bar make it the ideal party spot. Regardless of what you do, a grill and eating spot is a must for al fresco dining, and you need good-quality furniture to truly enjoy even the most basic outdoor space. Depending on your budget, you can even opt for a hot tub and pool, if you don’t mind the maintenance.
