Deck Build
Custom backyard remodel in Westlake Village by Construction by Maya. Decks, patios, pergolas and outdoor kitchens built for the Conejo Valley’s indoor-outdoor lifestyle.
In the Conejo Valley, your backyard is another living room. In fact, we enjoy outdoor weather most of the year. That is why a backyard remodel in Westlake Village pays off every single day. Founder Hila Hemo leads our boutique team with a listening-first approach.
We build across Westlake Village, from North Ranch to Westlake Island. First, we design your outdoor space with you. Then, our licensed team handles permits and construction. Finally, we hand over a backyard built for gathering, grilling and relaxing. Above all, pricing stays clear at every step.
We tailor every backyard remodel in Westlake Village to your yard and your plans. Moreover, we bring every trade under one roof. So your project runs with one team and one clear plan, from a simple deck to a complete outdoor retreat.
New builds, rebuilds and expert waterproofing. Strong, beautiful decks made for California living.
Pavers, concrete and stone patios with seating walls and walkways that tie your yard together.
Shade structures that extend your season. Built to match your home and engineered to last.
BBQ islands, counters and bars for true outdoor entertaining. Plumbed, wired and finished right.
Fire pits, fireplaces and layered landscape lighting that keep the evening going.
Smart layouts, proper drainage and city permits handled for you. The unglamorous work that makes it all last.
An outdoor space here faces conditions a covered porch in a milder climate never will. Consequently, material choices that look identical in a showroom perform very differently after three Westlake Village summers.
Fire-resistant construction requirements vary by parcel and are updated periodically. We confirm the current requirements for your specific property during your free consultation.
Most contractors will not discuss numbers until they are standing in your yard. We think that wastes your time. Below are the ranges we typically see for Westlake Village and Conejo Valley backyards, with realistic timelines from demolition to final walkthrough.
| Project Type | Typical Investment | Typical Timeline | What Drives The Range |

| Paver Or Concrete Patio | $18,000 - $55,000 | 2 to 5 weeks | Square footage, grading, drainage work and material selection |
| Pergola Or Patio Cover | $15,000 - $50,000 | 2 to 5 weeks | Span, engineering, footings and whether lighting or fans are included |
| Outdoor Kitchen Or BBQ Island | $20,000 - $75,000 | 3 to 6 weeks | Gas and water runs, appliance package, counter material and shade structure |
| Full Backyard Transformation | $80,000 - $250,000+ | 8 to 16 weeks | Combining hardscape, structures, kitchen, fire feature, lighting and planting |
These ranges reflect typical Westlake Village and Conejo Valley backyards and exclude pools and spas. They are a planning guide, not a quote. After we walk your yard, you receive a written, itemized price with no hidden allowances.
Our backyard remodel process in Westlake Village stays simple, transparent and collaborative. First, we listen. Then, we plan every detail with you. Because of this, you feel confident from the first call to the final reveal.
First, we walk your Westlake Village yard with you. We learn how your family wants to live outside.
Next, we design the space and secure any permits. You get realistic timelines and clear pricing in writing.
Then our crew builds with precision. Meanwhile, you receive regular updates and a clean, safe yard.
Finally, we complete a careful walkthrough together. Your outdoor space is ready for its first gathering.
Almost every outdoor space we are called to repair failed for the same two reasons. Water went where it should not have gone, or the structure was never built to carry what was put on it. Neither failure shows up in year one. Both show up eventually.
So we build from the substrate up. Decks and balconies get a proper membrane, correct slope and sealed penetrations before any decking goes down. Patios get grading and drainage that carries winter runoff away from your foundation rather than toward it.
Send us a photo and tell us how you wish you could use it. We will tell you what is realistic for your slope, your budget and your HOA before you commit to anything.

Photos say more than any promise. Here is a look at recent deck, patio and exterior work from our team across the Conejo Valley and greater Los Angeles.
A backyard remodel opens up endless possibilities. For example, you can host dinners under a pergola, cook in a full outdoor kitchen or unwind by a fire pit. Either way, we turn unused yards into favorite rooms for Westlake Village families.
Plenty of companies will build you a deck. Here is what makes working with a licensed general contractor different from hiring a landscaper with a saw.
Clients name our porch and deck waterproofing in their reviews. That is the part nobody sees, which is exactly why it is the part worth getting right.
Covers, structures and anything attached to your house need permits and engineering. As a licensed general contractor, we handle that rather than working around it.
Because we also remodel interiors, we specify outdoor finishes that relate to the rooms they open from. The result reads as one house, not two projects.
One client wrote that we listened to her concerns and gave options that fit her needs. On a backyard, how you actually use the space matters more than any trend.
Our estimates itemize labor, materials and allowances line by line. As a result, you know what a change order costs before you approve it, and surprises stay off your invoice.
License #1034501, general liability and workers compensation on every job. In addition, we provide current certificates before work starts, without you having to ask twice.
Our reputation rests on trust and care. Above all, we deliver on our promises. So read what homeowners across Westlake Village, Calabasas and the Conejo Valley say about their backyard and deck projects with our team.
Backyards go wrong when they are designed around photos rather than around how the family actually lives. These six questions keep the project honest. We work through all of them with you at no cost.
Hosting twenty people twice a year and eating dinner outside four nights a week call for very different layouts. Design for the frequent thing, not the rare one.
A west-facing patio is unusable at six in the evening without shade. Knowing your sun path decides where the cover goes long before it decides how it looks.
If any part of the yard puddles in winter, that has to be solved first. Building a beautiful surface over a drainage problem only hides it for a season.
An outdoor kitchen or fire feature needs utilities run to it. Trenching distance across a finished yard is a real cost worth knowing up front.
Natural wood looks wonderful and needs regular attention. Composite and stone cost more initially and ask far less of you afterward.
Tell us the budget you actually have, not the one you think we want to hear. Then we phase it sensibly if needed, instead of overreaching and stopping halfway.
