COMPLETE ENCINO OUTDOOR REMODELING

Build Up Remodeling is a licensed California general contractor specializing in complete backyard transformations for homeowners in Encino and surrounding Los Angeles communities.

Instead of treating the pool, patio, hardscape, landscape, shade, lighting, and entertainment areas as separate projects, we plan the property as one connected outdoor environment.

Our projects may include complete backyard remodeling , pools and spas , pavers and hardscape , outdoor kitchens, patio covers, fire features, artificial turf, retaining walls, landscape lighting, drainage, and related site improvements.

DESIGNED AROUND THE PROPERTY

Encino properties can offer significant opportunities for outdoor living, particularly when an existing pool, patio, lawn, mature landscaping, privacy conditions, and entertainment areas need to function together.

We evaluate circulation, shade, sun exposure, drainage, utilities, privacy, pool placement, hardscape, and the connection between the home and backyard before finalizing the larger design.

This whole property approach helps coordinate construction while creating an outdoor environment that feels intentional, comfortable, and connected to the home.

Designing For The Property

Designed Around Encino Outdoor Living

Many Encino backyard projects involve an existing home, mature outdoor conditions, a pool or spa, established landscaping, and multiple areas that have been improved at different times. A complete design can bring those elements together while improving privacy, circulation, shade, entertainment, and everyday outdoor use.

01

Pool Centered Outdoor Living

When a pool or spa is a major part of the backyard, the surrounding deck, lounge areas, shade, kitchen, fire features, lighting, landscaping, and circulation should be designed as one environment.

02

Privacy & Entertaining

Walls, planting areas, lighting, lounge spaces, kitchens, dining areas, fire features, and circulation can be arranged to improve privacy while creating comfortable areas for family use and entertaining.

03

Shade & Outdoor Comfort

Patio covers, cabanas, planting, seating orientation, pool areas, and outdoor rooms can be planned around sun exposure and how the property is used throughout the day.

04

Indoor & Outdoor Connection

Patios, pathways, kitchens, pools, lounges, lawn areas, and entertainment zones should connect naturally to the home so movement through the property feels intentional.

Exclusive Design Method

The 3 Zone Systemâ„¢

Our proprietary planning framework helps organize the property around how homeowners arrive, live, entertain, relax, and use their outdoor environment.

01

Arrival Zoneâ„¢

Entry paths, driveways, gates, architectural planting, privacy, lighting, framed views, and the first impression of the property.

02

Living Zoneâ„¢

Outdoor kitchens, dining areas, lounges, patio covers, fire features, shade, and everyday gathering spaces.

03

Activity Zoneâ„¢

Pools, spas, turf, recreation, putting greens, play areas, wellness features, and active entertainment spaces.

Project Investment

Define The Scope Before Final Pricing

Encino outdoor remodeling costs vary based on property size, access, demolition, drainage, pools and spas, structural work, utilities, hardscape quantities, engineering, finish materials, landscaping, and the number of coordinated trades.
