Process
From the first walk to the first swim.
The same five steps our family has used on every Lowcountry project since 2015, now with a pool at the center.

- 01
Walk the property
We meet you at home, walk the yard together and listen: how you want to use it, who will be there, and what you want to spend. If several people are part of the decision, we ask everyone to be there.
- 02
A clear, line-item proposal
You get one written proposal that prices every part of the project on its own line, so you can see exactly where the money goes and adjust before you commit.
- 03
Design and material selection
We finish the drawings and pick materials together. Seeing pavers, stone and colors in person beats choosing from a brochure.
- 04
The build
One team builds the whole backyard. On day one we walk the plan with you again, so everyone is working from the same drawing.
- 05
Final walkthrough and first swim
We walk every detail together until you are happy. Then you get the keys to your new backyard.
What you can count on
Clear from the start.
Line-item pricing
Every part of the project is priced on its own line: the pool, the deck by the square foot, the walls by the foot, each light.
Everyone at the table
We ask everyone who has a say to join the first walk. It saves time and gets the plan right the first time.
Day-one walkthrough
Before the crew starts, we walk the drawing with you on site, so nothing is a surprise.
Signed off in writing
At the end, we walk every detail with you and close the project with a written completion of scope.
