Backyard Improvements in San Marino

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 San Marino specifically, the build context is different from a generic LA project. One of the most carefully curated municipalities in California. 4-square-mile city, every street tree is municipally maintained, no commercial businesses, design review on essentially everything. That changes what a backyard improvements project looks like — both in spec and in process.
