My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Featured Reviews for Patio Designers in San Francisco

R&R Backyard Remodeling
Patio Designers in San Francisco
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 11, 2022
“Contractors typically annoy me. They hardly ever arrive on time, clean up after their work or live up to their promises. R&R Backyard Remodeling is the exception having proved time and time again over the course of a long project that they do what they say they'll do and get it right on the first try. They have crews that specialize in each individual area (the deck itself, kitchen/barbecue area, fencing, stucco and paint) and each of them is led by a foreman with experience and patience. We are more than pleased with the end result - we are delighted. Visitors have been stunned at the beauty and quality of the final product. The most important endorsement I could offer is that given the opportunity to do it all over again I'd choose to work with them without hesitation. Ron and his team are honest, professional and prompt. It's hard to ask for anything more of a contractor. I'd give them 6 stars if I could.”
Blue Hibiscus Gardens
Patio Designers in San Francisco
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 24, 2017
“Gun was a real pleasure to work with. She listened very carefully to our half-formed ideas, made sure she understood what we wanted and liked, as well as what we didn't want and didn't like. We are delighted with the results! She transformed our somewhat neglected front yard into a lovely low-water garden. She skillfully guided us through every step, from initial consultation, design, contractor selection, installation and plans for on-going maintenance. Any questions/issues were quickly resolved. We highly recommend Blue Hibiscus Gardens.”
Terra Rubina
Patio Designers in San Francisco
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 19, 2013
“Juliana of Terra Rubina designed the soft-scape of my dismal garden and transformed it from an Adams Family smorgasbord of grey and brown to a vibrant, verdant retreat. Years later her initial plantings have held up beautifully. Juliana is honest, resourceful, sensitive to the client's tastes, and is a delightful person. Five stars: highest recommendation.”

Landscape Architect or Designer FAQs
The duration of a patio design project can vary widely depending on the scale and complexity of the project, weather conditions, and the availability of materials and labor. Smaller projects might take a few weeks, while larger, more intricate designs can take several months. A reputable patio designer will provide you with a projected timeline upfront and keep you informed of any changes.
Patio designers stay abreast of the latest materials and design trends through continual education, industry publications, and networking. They consider factors such as durability, maintenance, local climate, and your personal style to recommend the best materials for your project. Sustainability, outdoor living, and seamless indoor-outdoor transitions are currently popular trends in patio design.
Before meeting with a patio designer, homeowners should gather inspiration photos, establish a budget, and consider how they intend to use the space (e.g., entertaining, relaxation, dining). Itʼs also helpful to identify any specific features you desire, like a fire pit or outdoor kitchen. Clear communication of your needs and preferences helps ensure the success of your project.
Patio designers are skilled in navigating challenges such as spatial constraints, zoning restrictions, and budget limitations. They leverage creative solutions and strategic planning to overcome obstacles, ensuring the project stays on track. Open communication between the homeowner and designer is critical for addressing issues promptly as they arise.
Outdoor lighting not only enhances the ambiance of a patio but also ensures safety and functionality after dark. Designers recommend incorporating a mix of task, ambient, and accent lighting. Solar-powered and LED lights are popular for their efficiency and sustainability. Proper placement and consideration of light intensity are crucial to avoid glare and create a welcoming atmosphere.
Sustainability in patio design is achieved through the selection of eco-friendly materials, native plants that require less water, and the incorporation of green technologies like rainwater harvesting systems. Designers also consider the orientation of the patio to maximize natural light and warmth while minimizing exposure to harsh elements. This approach not only benefits the environment but can also lead to long-term cost savings for homeowners.
