Design ideas for a mediterranean water fountain landscape in Orange County.

We had the awesome opportunity to complete this 8ft Western Red Cedar board-on-board privacy fence that included metal gate frames with industrial hinges and 2x6 single stage trim cap. We used exterior rated GRK screws for 100% of the installation, not a single nail on the entire project. The project also included demolition and removal of a failed retaining wall followed by the form up and pouring of a new 24” tall concrete retaining wall. As always we are grateful for the opportunity to work with amazing clients who allow us to turn ideas into reality. If you have an idea for a custom fence, retaining wall, or any other outdoor project, give 806 Outdoors a call. 806 690 2344.

The homeowners desired an outdoor space that felt more rustic than their refined interior spaces, but still related architecturally to their house. Cement plaster support arbor columns provide enough of visual tie to the existing house exterior. Oversized wood beams and rafter members provide a unique outdoor atmosphere. Structural bolts and hardware were minimized for a cleaner appearance. Structural connections and supports were engineered to meet California's stringent earthquake standards. Ali Atri Photography

These clients spent the majority of their time outside and entertained frequently, but their existing patio space didn't allow for larger gatherings. We added nearly 500 square feet to the already 225 square feet existing to create this expansive outdoor living room. The outdoor fireplace is see-thru and can fully convert to wood burning should the clients desire. Beyond the fireplace is a spa built in on two sides with a composite deck, LED step lighting, and outdoor rated TV, and additional counter space. The outdoor grilling area mimics the interior of the clients home with a kitchen island and space for dining. Heaters were added in ceiling and mounted to walls to create additional heat sources. To capture the best lighting, our clients enhanced their space with lighting in the overhangs, underneath the benches adjacent the fireplace, and recessed cans throughout. Audio/Visual details include an outdoor rated TV by the spa, Sonos surround sound in the main sitting area, the grilling area, and another landscape zone by the spa. The lighting and audio/visual in this project is also fully automated. To bring their existing area and new area together for ultimate entertaining, the clients remodeled their exterior breakfast room wall by removing three windows and adding an accordion door with a custom retractable screen to keep bugs out of the home. For landscape, the existing sod was removed and synthetic turf installed around the entirety of the backyard area along with a small putting green. Selections: Flooring - 2cm porcelain paver Kitchen/island: Fascia is ipe. Counters are 3cm quartzite Dry Bar: Fascia is stacked stone panels. Counter is 3cm granite. Ceiling: Painted tongue and groove pine with decorative stained cedar beams. Additional Paint: Exterior beams painted accent color (do not match existing house colors) Roof: Slate Tile Benches: Tile back, stone (bullnose edge) seat and cap

Our clients chose to build their new deck using Fortress Evolution steel deck framing for its strength, durability, and Class A fire rating. The decking material is Fiberon Sanctuary Moringa with single end and divider boards to achieve a clean, finished look. The steel deck railing from Fortress also includes a drink cap in the Moringa material. The gabled deck cover includes a vaulted ceiling in WoodTone's Canadian Ice Lager tongue and groove.

CertainTeed vinyl siding, GAF roofing, and a TimberTech AZEK farmer’s porch look great on this New Bedford, MA home! The homeowner chose to use a combination of CertainTeed Cedar Impressions and Restoration Classic vinyl siding in the color, Autumn Yellow. Cedar Impressions, installed on the front of the home, are molded to match the shape and texture of real cedar shingles. Restoration Classic vinyl siding replicates the look of painted cedar clapboard siding. Both collections of vinyl siding styles are offered in CertainTeed’s industry-leading, fade-resistant color collection. From deep hues of blue and red to subtle shades of gray and taupe, homeowners can find a siding color that suits their personal style. With custom vinyl siding, homeowners will eliminate worries about rot, insect damage, peeling, chipping, and the expensive costs associated with painting their home every 5-7 years! We’re proud to be a CertainTeed 5 Star Contractor who can offer CertainTeed’s limited lifetime warranty plus our own 10 year workmanship guarantee. We’re the area’s only Platinum TimberTech AZEK Contractor! The home’s original porch was dated and failing structurally so the homeowner chose to rebuild with a AZEK farmer’s porch with white rails and decking in the color, Slate Gray. This capped polymer decking has a realistic wood grain texture and is rot, insect, fade, dent, and scratch resistant! No more sanding, staining, and splintering wood boards! Slate Gray is a popular color choice for homeowners because it offers classic style and is up to 30 degrees cooler and has 40% better slip resistance than other competitive composite decking products. We stripped the original roof and replaced it with a North America’s top-selling GAF Timberline HDZ roofing system in the color, Hunter Green. These architectural shingles come in a gorgeous collection of color blends and 130 mph wind rating. GAF’s newest engineering also gives homeowners the opportunity to upgrade to their WindProven Limited Wind Warranty which is the industry’s only wind warranty with no maximum wind speed limitation. Thanks to our award-winning GAF MasterElite Contractor status, our customers also enjoy a GAF factory-registered, 50 Year non-prorated, transferable roof warranty. This industry-leading warranty adds value to the home because it can be transfered to the next homeowner! Give your home a top to bottom makeover with CertainTeed vinyl siding, GAF Roofing, and TimberTech AZEK Decking! Trust your home to a professional home improvement contractor with over 40 years of satisfied customers.
