Backyard Renovations
Complete backyard makeovers — design to done, one crew, one vision. Demo, grading, hardscape, turf, planting and lighting built as a single coordinated project.
The most satisfying project in residential construction
A complete backyard renovation starts with a tired lawn and a cracked patio and ends with an outdoor home. The J Hammer designs and builds the whole thing as one coordinated project — so the levels agree, the drainage works, and every element looks like it was planned together, because it was.
What a full renovation can include
- Patios and paver fields — the floor of the outdoor rooms.
- Shade structures — pergolas and solid covers with lighting and fans.
- Artificial turf — a clean green panel framed in paver borders.
- Walls, steps and fire features — seat walls, planters and gas fire pits.
- Landscape, drainage and lighting — the planting, water plan and low-voltage lighting that finish it.
Sequence is everything
We design once, then build in the right order: grading and drainage first (with trenching for electrical and gas while the ground is open), then walls and footings, then hardscape surfaces, then turf and planting, then lighting. Doing it in this order is what keeps a renovation on schedule and stops a patio from being demolished later to make room for a cover.
One crew, one number
Because we are a full general contractor, demo, grading, structure, hardscape, turf, planting and lighting are all our scope — one point of contact, one written plan, one clean result. Bring us your wish list, ranked, and we will bring a plan and a number.
