Outdoor Patio Construction in Mt Prospect, IL

We're a family-owned contractor.html">remodeling contractor with over 20 years working in and around Mt Prospect, IL. That means we've seen what holds up on a patio here and what falls apart after two winters. We're not a seasonal crew that disappears. We handle the design, the permits, and the build ourselves, so nothing gets lost between trades.

We also connect outdoor patio projects to the rest of your home. If you're thinking about an addition or a kitchen remodel down the road, we plan the patio with that in mind. A lot of our customers start with patio construction and come back to us for the next project because the work was done right the first time.

Mt Prospect, IL gets the full range of Illinois weather — hard freezes, wet springs, and summers that actually get hot. That matters a lot for patio construction. Concrete that isn't reinforced correctly will crack after a couple freeze-thaw cycles. Footings for covered patios need to go below the frost line, which in this part of Cook County sits around 42 inches. We spec every project for those conditions so the patio you have ten years from now looks as good as it did the day we finished it.

Covered Patios That Work Year-Round

A covered patio extends how long you can actually use the space. Rain in May or sun in August, you're still outside. We build covered structures with proper drainage, so water moves off the roof and away from your foundation. Posts are set deep, headers are sized for snow load, and materials are chosen to match your home's exterior.

The structure also creates a natural anchor for lighting, ceiling fans, and even a mounted heater if you want to push the season into November. We talk through all of that during the design phase so it's wired and ready when the patio is done.

Outdoor Kitchens Built for the NW Suburbs

An outdoor kitchen turns a patio into a place people actually gather. We build setups with stone or concrete countertops, built-in grills, and storage that can take the weather. Everything is plumbed and wired before the stone goes in, so there's no cutting corners later.

We size the kitchen to fit the space and how you cook. Some customers want a full setup with a sink and refrigerator. Others just need a solid grill station with counter space. Either way, it starts with a conversation about how you use your backyard, not a catalog you pick from.
