Who We Are

A Madison-based outdoor living builder

We build high-end pools, outdoor kitchens, pavilions and patios across North Alabama. Some folks want one great space. Others hand us the whole yard. Either way, we design it and build it ourselves.

Are you a true design-build company?
Yes. We handle the design, the pool, the structures, the hardscape and the finishes ourselves, so you're not stuck managing a pile of separate contractors.
Can I see my project before you build it?
Yes, we design your space in 3D so you can walk it and refine every detail before we break ground.

Why The Valley's

What it's like to work with us

We design it and build it

No passing you between a designer, a pool company and three different subs. One crew handles the whole job, so there's one number to call and one team that owns how it turns out.

You see it before we build it

We draw your yard in 3D so you can walk through it and change things while it's still easy. By the time we dig, you already know exactly what you're getting.

Built for our weather

We live here too. We pick materials and build details that hold up to Alabama summers, storms and freeze-thaw, not just stuff that looks good the first month.

What We Build

Three ways to start

Start with one space or hand us the whole yard. It's the same crew either way.

Our Flagship

The whole backyard, all at once

Pool, outdoor kitchen, pavilion, patios, lighting and landscaping, all planned and built together. Everything lines up because the same team draws it and builds it. This is the work we love most.

Investment

What this usually costs

We'll save you the guessing. Most of our projects land between $60,000 and $350,000 depending on size and features. Here's a rough idea of where things start before we put real numbers to your yard.

Complete Backyard Transformation

Typically $60,000 – $120,000

Backyard Transformation with a Pool

Typically $150,000 – $350,000+

Outdoor Kitchens & Entertainment Spaces

Typically $15,000 – $50,000

Covered Patios & Pavilions

Typically $30,000 – $80,000

Every yard is different, so your real number comes down to your site, your materials and the finishes you want. After we come out and see it, you get an itemized proposal with everything spelled out.

Our Standards

Where we don't cut corners

Designed around your house

We look at your home, your yard and how you actually use it, then design from there. Nothing comes off a template.

One team the whole way

The people who draw your project are the same ones who build it. You don't get handed off halfway through.

Good materials, no shortcuts

We'd rather quote it straight and use the right materials than win the job cheap and cut corners you'd find a year later.

The details that sell it

Fire, water, lighting and finishes are what take a yard from nice to wow. Those are the parts we sweat.

A yard you'll actually use

Pretty is the easy part. We design for cookouts, late nights and lazy Saturdays so the space earns its keep.

How it works

How a project actually goes

Three steps, one team. No getting passed around between a designer, a pool company and a handful of subs.

01

Design & plan

We start with how you want to use the yard, then design it in 3D and put real numbers to it. You get to see it and change it before anyone digs.

02

Build

One crew handles the whole build, from the first dig to the last finish. We keep the schedule clear and the job site clean while we're at your place.

03

Enjoy

We walk the finished yard with you, show you how everything works, then get out of the way so you can start using it.

Our Inspiration

The look we're going for

We're a new shop, so this is the style and quality we build toward. Photos of our own builds go up here as we finish them.

"We're after one thing: the kind of backyard nobody wants to leave. If it's not a place you'd be glad to host in, we're not finished."

Frequently Asked Questions

What areas do you serve?

We build across Huntsville, Madison, Athens, Decatur, Harvest and the towns around them. If you're close and not sure, just call and ask.

Do you handle the whole project or just part of it?

Whatever you need. We can do one space or the entire yard, and we handle the design, the pool, the structures and the finishes ourselves so you're not juggling separate contractors.

What does a project cost?

It comes down to the size, the site and the finishes you want. Most projects run between $60,000 and $350,000. After we come out and see your yard, you get an itemized proposal with everything spelled out.

Can I start with one part now and add more later?

For sure. A lot of folks start with a pool or patio and add a kitchen or pavilion down the road. We'll plan it now so the later phases still fit.
