a comprehensive design/build firm

Turnkey Service

Outdoor Dreams is a Design/Build firm specializing in luxury patios and swimming pools for homeowners throughout Williamsburg and Central Virginia.

We take a holistic approach to every project and provide turn-key service to ensure that homeowners are left with an outdoor space that is immediately ready to enjoy.

No dealing with multiple contractors - we handle everything.

Fiberglass & Gunite Pools

An Outdoor Dreams swimming pool project is more than just a pool; we pride ourselves in delivering fully finished swimming pool spaces.

An Outdoor Dreams swimming pool project typically includes a fiberglass or gunite pool, pool equipment, automatic cover or fence, utilities (electrical & gas), coping, pool decking, any necessary retaining walls, landscaping, irrigation, outdoor lighting, and all necessary site work (demolition, excavation, trenching, grading, soil removal, and drainage).

Our complete fiberglass and gunite swimming pool projects typically start between $200,000 and $250,000, with most clients investing between $275,000 and $375,000.

Stone & Paver Patios

An Outdoor Dreams' patio project typically includes a multi-room space with landscaping, irrigation, outdoor lighting, all necessary site work (demo, excavation, trenching, grading, soil removal, and drainage), and additional features, including grill islands, outdoor kitchens, fire features, pergolas, pavilions, retaining and seat walls, water features, and utilities (gas, electrical, water).

Our patios typically start between $50,000 and $100,000. Larger patios with multiple features typically range between $150,000 and $225,000.

From design through build

A Reliable Process

From design through build, we follow a consistent process to produce unique swimming pool and patio projects that delight clients and create lasting property value.

We take the guesswork out of contracting by setting realistic expectations and charting a step-by-step roadmap from start to finish.

Right away we felt comfortable that these guys knew what they were doing. Super professional, always on time, kept us informed where they were at in the project, and willing to take the time to explain anything we had questions about. We love the way the hardscape and landscape work with the natural landscape of our property. We're confident that there isn't a job they can't do.

Adding Atmosphere & Warmth

Outdoor Fireplaces & Fire Pits

For many, fire features are the most popular component of their outdoor living space. Whether it's the romantic, glowing atmosphere they create or the warmth they provide during colder seasons, outdoor fireplaces and fire pits are both wonderful additions.

Outdoor Fireplaces

If you're looking to create a formal and elegant experience, a patio fireplace is a perfect addition to your space. These large structures provide a grand stature to an outdoor living space and create an elegant ambiance.

Learn more about the fireplaces we build.

Fire Pits

If you're looking to create a casual atmosphere with the traditional campfire experience, a fire pit is a great addition to your patio. Fire pits are perfect for long nights of storytelling and toasting marshmallows for S'mores.

Outdoor Kitchens

Along with fire features, Outdoor Kitchens are one of the most popular patio amenities. As often happens indoors, well-planned outdoor kitchens are the centerpiece and gathering point of outdoor living spaces. As the popularity of outdoor kitchens grows, new innovations provide an increasing number of options for homeowners. In many ways, outdoor kitchens are more versatile than indoor ones.

more than just stone & concrete

Carpentry Structures

Along with our hardscape, masonry, and pool capabilities, Outdoor Dreams also has an in-house carpentry crew for building Decks, Porches, Pavilions, Pergolas, Decorative Screens, and more.

Carpentry

Decks & Porches

An Outdoor Dreams' deck project typically includes a multi-room space composed of premium wood or low maintenance, capped-composited decking with custom aluminum railings and low voltage lighting. All of our decks and steps feature picture frame borders for a clean, finished look.

Our decks typically start between $45,000 and $75,000. Larger decks with porches and other features can range between $85,000 and $175,000.

Most of our pavilions are wrapped with white PVC for a clean look and low-maintenance finish.

Pavilions

If shade is what you want, a full roof structure is what you need. These pavilion structures create stunning outdoor rooms that are as comfortable as you can be on a patio. The full shade created by pavilions provides the best setting for watching an outdoor television during the day. Additionally, upgraded lighting options create wonderful and unique outdoor evening experiences.

This custom wood pergola was designed to create more shade as well as hold a fan and bistro lights

Pergolas

Pergolas provide a break from the sun but are not as overwhelming (or costly) as a full roof structure. Pergolas also provide a structure for mounting fans, lights, outdoor televisions, audio, and more.

For increased shade, design a pergola with top runners and rafters closer together. Also, consider installing shades and curtains for increased shade and privacy.

soften your outdoor space

Landscaping & Outdoor Lighting

Dollar for dollar, few things add more value to your patio than landscaping and outdoor lighting. Even an uncomplicated patio, without any other features, is elevated to luxury with the addition of these elements.

Landscaping

Landscaping, even when done minimally, helps to soften the space and create a relaxing atmosphere. At Outdoor Dreams, our landscapes are designed to be high impact, low-maintenance, and engage all of the senses.

Additionally, Outdoor Dreams specializes in landscapes composed of native plants that require little maintenance and foster healthy biodiversity.

Outdoor Lighting

Quality lighting is essential for enjoying your patio after sunset. A quality outdoor lighting plan supplies balanced light throughout the patio space, providing both safety and ambiance. At Outdoor Dreams, our outdoor lighting designs include a balanced combination of fixtures and are customized to consider the look, use, and flow of the patio.

increase relaxation & tranquility

Waterfalls & Fountains

The sound of running water creates a tranquil setting that is a welcome addition to any outdoor space. At Outdoor Dreams, we offer low-maintenance water features that add to your patio's ambiance without increasing your outdoor chores. Whether it's a pondless waterfall, wall fountain, or a simple bubbling feature, an Outdoor Dreams water feature can increase the enjoyment of your patio or swimming pool.
