Absolutely. We specialize in maximizing small urban spaces. Through clever design techniques like vertical gardens, multi-functional built-in furniture, and strategic lighting, we can make even the most compact yard feel spacious, functional, and luxurious.

A design-build firm, like Modern Yardz, handles every aspect of your project from the initial concept to the final construction. This integrated approach eliminates communication gaps between separate designers and contractors, ensuring a smoother process, better budget control, and a final result that perfectly matches the vision.

The timeline varies depending on the project's complexity, size, and permitting requirements. A simple patio and planting project might take a few weeks, while a full transformation with an outdoor kitchen and pool could take a few months. We provide a detailed project schedule upfront so you always know what to expect.

It all starts with a simple, complimentary design consultation. You can call us or fill out a form on our website to schedule a time for one of our designers to meet you at your property. We'll listen to your ideas and discuss the potential for your space with no obligation.

Project costs can vary widely based on the materials you choose and the features you want to include. We work with a range of budgets and are completely transparent with our pricing. After our initial design phase, we provide a detailed, itemized proposal so you can see exactly where your investment is going.

Our lighting designs do more than just illuminate; they create mood, highlight architectural features, and improve safety.
