Frequently Asked Questions
- What should I ask an outdoor living contractor before hiring?
As recommended for any type of renovation project, you should verify an outdoor living contractor’s license and insurance, ask for references and their portfolio of past projects, get a detailed project timeline, and specifics about the communication process throughout the project. Additionally, you should ask about the specific materials and installation process they use and how they handle potential change orders or issues that may arise. Finally, confirm the types of warranties they offer on labor and materials. Be sure to get a detailed written contract with all of these specifics as well as the payment schedule before any work begins.
- How long does a backyard remodel take?|
Depending on the scope of the project and permits needed, a backyard remodel timeline can vary significantly. If it’s a small project with minor work needed, it could potentially be completed in just a few days. Complex backyard remodels that include outdoor kitchens, pool installation, or other custom design elements may take over a year. However, the average backyard remodel tends to take between two weeks and six months for completion. Keep in mind that weather conditions, material availability, and contractor scheduling may also impact the project’s timeline.
- Can you handle drainage, grading, and HOA approvals?
Revive’s in-network contractors handle drainage and grading to streamline the process and deliver the best quality result for every bathroom remodel project. HOAs require the homeowner to take the lead on remodel approvals, however Revive can provide support with application submission and any information needed within the approval process.
- What materials work best for durability?
For patios and hardscaping, brick pavers, decomposed granite, natural stone like granite, slate, and sandstone, porcelain pavers, and sintered stone are great options to withstand Orange County’s typical weather conditions. For decks and other entertaining spaces, concrete, wood, and wood composite materials provide long-lasting results.
- How much does a full backyard remodel cost?
As always, the total cost of a backyard remodel depends on multiple factors, including scope of work, labor, permits, luxury features, material type and quality, and location. A basic backyard remodel typically costs a few thousand dollars. Mid-range projects can cost $15,000–$50,000. High-end remodels can exceed $100,000.
- Can I see examples from previous projects?
Explore examples of past backyard remodel projects in the Backyard and Patio tabs of our Project Gallery.
- How do I achieve a seamless indoor-outdoor transition?
A great way to achieve a seamless indoor-outdoor transition is to integrate large glass doors or windows for better visual flow. Using consistent materials and colors indoors and outdoors will also help to create aesthetic cohesion. To further enhance the indoor-outdoor harmony, incorporate natural elements like greenery, plants, and wood accents for a smooth transition between the two spaces.
