Custom Patio Renovations for Central Ohioans

We're committed to building right here in Ohio — serving our local community as your trusted deck, sunroom, and patio contractors. That's because we've been working on Central Ohio exteriors for three generations and counting. Home and family mean everything to us, and after decades of experience working around both, we know a thing or two about building foundations that stand the test of time.

If looking at your backyard doesn't inspire you to invite the neighborhood over, we're here to help. From blissful, java-sippin' mornings to backyard BBQs when the Buckeyes play, patio living is... well, it's part of your Midwestern birthright as far as we're concerned.

Our family wants yours to look forward to spending time on a luxuriously remodeled patio — this season and for many more to come.
