I’m ready to transform my backyard into a warm, traditional retreat and I need someone who can guide the process from concept sketches through final construction. The must-have centerpiece is a 24-foot round above-ground swimming pool; the surrounding hardscape should be a concrete patio that blends comfortably with a classic, timeless look. Alongside the pool and patio, I’d like three integrated features built right in: a fire pit for cool nights, an outdoor kitchen for easy entertaining, and a pergola to create a shaded sitting area. Space planning is important because the yard isn’t huge, so I’ll rely on you to balance clear circulation paths, safety zones around the pool, and enough room for seating and cooking. What I need from you • Scaled design drawings (site plan and 3D visual) that show how the pool, concrete patio, fire pit, outdoor kitchen, and pergola all fit together • A materials and finishes schedule that matches a traditional aesthetic and specifies the concrete mix, coping, railings, and any complementary stone or wood accents • Full build services—or, if you only handle design, detailed construction documents my local crew can follow • A realistic timeline that covers permits, excavation, pool installation, curing time for concrete, and final finishing • Clear milestones so I can approve the layout before construction begins and sign off after each feature is completed If you have experience with pool-side hardscapes, concrete finishing, and outdoor living amenities, I’d love to see your portfolio and hear your thoughts on maximizing the space.
