The backyard you actually want.

Most backyards in greater Los Angeles sit underused — a patch of concrete, a lawn that needs water, and potential that never gets realized. We've spent years turning those spaces into something worth coming home to: pools, outdoor kitchens, pavilions, and landscaping built as one unified project under one roof.

What We Build

What goes into a great backyard

When you hire five different contractors, you get five different timelines, five sets of excuses, and a backyard that looks like it was designed by committee. We handle everything — pools, kitchens, structures, lighting, landscaping — under one contract with one person accountable from first shovel to final stone.

Pools & Spas

Raised vanishing-edge pools, elevated spas, black mosaic tile coping, stone veneer walls, and white river rock surrounds. We design for drama and build for decades.

Outdoor Kitchens

Covered pavilions with professional-grade grills, deep sinks, under-counter refrigerators, fire tables, and quartz countertops — built to withstand the elements without sacrificing style.

Decks & Patios

Elevated wood decks, large-format concrete patios, and flagstone terraces. Engineered for hillside lots, slab foundations, and properties with challenging grades.

Outdoor Lighting

Recessed pavilion lighting, in-pool and in-spa LEDs, wall uplighting, and pathway lighting. The right lighting turns a nice backyard into one you use every evening.

Landscaping & Hardscape

Artificial turf, drought-tolerant palms and perimeter planting, retaining walls, concrete flatwork, and full yard grading — from bare dirt to resort finish.

Pavilions & Shade Structures

Custom-built covered structures with tongue-and-groove wood ceilings, recessed lighting, and structural framing designed to last without ongoing maintenance headaches.

Our Work

Built in Los Angeles.
Built to last.

Every project below started as a flat, underused backyard. What you see is what happens when design and construction are handled by the same team, from the first sketch to the final stone.

How it works

From concrete to oasis.

A backyard transformation is more complex than most people expect — permitting, engineering, multiple trades. Here's how we manage it so you don't have to.

01

Vision walk and site assessment

We walk the yard with you, talk through how you actually want to use the space, and assess what the property allows — utilities, grades, setbacks, soil conditions. No guessing, no surprises later.

02

Design and 3D planning

We lay out the full scope — pool shape and depth, spa placement, pavilion footprint, kitchen configuration, lighting plan, and landscaping — so you can see the finished result before a shovel hits the ground.

03

Permits and approvals

Pool and outdoor structure permits in Los Angeles require structural engineering, Title 24 compliance, and often multiple city departments. We handle all of it — submittals, corrections, inspections — start to finish.

04

Excavation and shell construction

Dig day is the most dramatic — the pool shell takes shape fast. We coordinate excavation, gunite or shotcrete application, plumbing rough-in, and electrical for the pool and pavilion simultaneously to avoid delays.

05

Tile, stone, and hardscape

This is where the design comes to life. Coping tile, stone veneer walls, river rock, deck flatwork, and outdoor kitchen framing all go in during this phase — the most detail-intensive part of the build.

06

Equipment, lighting, and landscaping

Pool equipment commissioning, LED lighting, pavilion electrical, and final planting. We don't hand off the yard until the water is balanced, the lights are programmed, and the space looks exactly as designed.

A to Z did a fantastic job with our kitchen remodel. We have a 100-year-old Spanish style home and wanted to keep a lot of the original elements — Zack and Rami really listened and helped us figure out how to get it just right. Couldn't be happier with our new kitchen.
Tess L.Kitchen Remodel · Los Angeles · Yelp
★★★★★
A to Z built a beautiful ADU in our backyard. The project was on budget and the results were better than we had hoped. Rami and Zack were a consistent and communicative presence at the job site. We looked at 10 firms in total and are so pleased we chose A to Z.

★★★★★
A to Z, lead by Rami and Zach, are the absolute best. My bathroom remodel was complicated and they worked meticulously to make our vision a reality. They communicated well, showed up on time, left the work site clean every day. No problem was too hard and the work they did was beautiful.
Abby H.Bathroom Remodel · Agoura Hills · Yelp
★★★★★
We interviewed several contractors and hired A to Z. Couldn't be more pleased with the results! Two bathrooms, new lighting, a new roof, HVAC, windows, flooring, and paint. From the start they gave us clear and honest advice, and the work speaks for itself. Highly recommended!!

I have used A to Z's services twice. Most recently they rebuilt my home after a house fire. The estimates were reasonable and thorough. Many of the skilled workers on the A to Z team have been with the company for years and it's clear they take pride in their work. Their estimates are honest.

Zack, Rami and their crew did a fantastic job! Full renovation for two 1950's bathrooms that came out beautifully. Reasonable price especially in comparison to the other company I contacted. Trustworthy company with frequent updates from Zack who also provided invaluable input and suggestions. Highly recommend!
