Frequently Asked Questions
Do outdoor kitchens and pergolas need permits?
Many outdoor structures, utility connections and electrical work require permits in Miami-Dade. We coordinate permitting where your project requires it.
Can you work around an existing pool?
Yes. Pool deck areas, pavers and surrounding features are common parts of outdoor living projects and are planned around the existing pool and access.
What surfaces hold up best in the Miami climate?
Porcelain pavers, travertine and quality concrete pavers are popular for durability. We review the best options for your space during planning.
How long does an outdoor project take?
Timing depends on scope, structures, selections and permitting. We share a projected schedule with your estimate rather than a generic timeline.
