Why Hidden Hills homeowners pick Red Stag

Three reasons our backyard improvements work is different in Hidden Hills.

01

One in-house crew, one schedule.

We do the deck, the fence, the gate, the carpentry, and the finish carpentry. One crew, one PM, one written schedule. No subcontractor coordination problems, no sequence-induced delays.

02

Coordinated with pool, hardscape, landscape.

Most backyard transformations involve four trades: pool, hardscape, landscape, carpentry. We coordinate with your other contractors so the sequence works — fences after pool deck, decks after pool plumbing, gates after grade.

03

Single-contract, fixed-price.

One contract, one price. Every element line-itemed. No mid-build surprises, no allowance overages, no scope-creep change orders.

Hidden Hills build context

What's specific about backyard improvements in Hidden Hills.

A full backyard build is a coordination project. Multiple elements, multiple trades, multiple inspections, all sequenced to avoid demoralizing the family living through it. We do every wood element ourselves with one crew, coordinate the rest with your pool / hardscape / landscape contractors, and run a single written schedule that updates every Friday. In Hidden Hills specifically, the build context is different from a generic LA project. Most exclusive gated community in the West Valley. Equestrian heritage means every property has a horse-trail easement on the back of the lot; design review is gated-community-strict. That changes what a backyard improvements project looks like — both in spec and in process.
