When our clients in Carmel came to us looking for a way to turn their plain backyard into a showpiece for family gatherings and weekend relaxation, we knew this would be a special transformation.
Their wishlist was simple:
What started as a blank slate is now a beautifully functional space that blends outdoor living with year-round comfort.



Before breaking ground, we worked closely with the homeowners to create a detailed layout that balanced hardscape, softscape, and structure.

What began as an empty space now feels like an outdoor extension of the home.











This project is a perfect example of how thoughtful design turns outdoor space into real living space. Here’s why this setup delivers:
A: Typically 4–6 weeks depending on weather and materials. We start with a design consultation and schedule construction once the plan is finalized.
A: Absolutely. We can pre-wire for all of these during the build to keep wires hidden and everything integrated.
A: In most cases, yes. We handle permitting with your township or municipality so it’s one less thing you have to worry about.
A: We recommend concrete countertops and stone block bases like the Raffinato wall system. They’re durable and stand up well to seasonal changes.
A: Yes! Built-in beds not only look beautiful but also provide structure and help define outdoor rooms.
Whether you want to entertain more, relax in comfort, or boost your home’s value, a custom outdoor living space is one of the best upgrades you can make. At Fine Touch Services, we bring craftsmanship, creativity, and care to every project.
