Back Yard Patio and Firepit at Jackson Creek


This project was located in the Jackson Creek neighborhood of Monument. The home was newly built, and the home builder provided the front landscaping. The homeowner was looking for something more than the builder grade landscaping in the backyard and looked to us for some help.

Our client came to us with a few concept photos they’d found online. They were looking for a patio space and fire feature. The backyard was small and there were neighbors on all sides, so privacy was a concern as well. Finally, just off the corner of the backyard were some beautiful mountain views that the homeowner wanted to be able to enjoy.

We set to work on creating the patio space they envisioned. We were able to communicate with the builder and have them forgo any concrete work at the back door, allowing us to create a unified space of all the same color and style. We then poured the needed steps off the back door, and a connected upper and lower patio. This design helped deal with the sloped grade coming out of the back door, and also defined the dining area and the fire pit area. The lower patio was positioned to capitalize on the nice views. The concrete received a stamped boardwalk finish. The natural gas fire pit was a custom design tailored to the patio shape based off the client’s concept photos. As we installed the landscaping, we brought in a number of trees, and special care was given to their placement to ensure we provided the needed screening.

The final result is an outdoor space that serves as the focal point of the back yard, and allows our client to enjoy their back yard without feeling exposed. If we can help design your dream outdoor space, please contact us. Thank you!
