Why Dollhouse
An outdoor room you'll actually use year-round.
In the foothills, the backyard is a second living room nine months a year — if it's built right. We design covered patios, pergolas, outdoor kitchens and fireplaces as real architecture, with proper footings, shade, and materials that take the sun. Not a slab and a grill — an outdoor room that matches the house.

Common Questions
Straight answers, no upsell.
Do you build outdoor kitchens with gas and water?
Yes — full built-in outdoor kitchens with gas, water, electrical, counters and weatherproof cabinetry, all permitted and installed in-house.
Will it hold up to SGV sun and heat?
That's the whole point of building it as real architecture — proper materials, shade design, and finishes chosen for foothill sun, not a quick deck that fades in two seasons.
Do outdoor structures need permits?
Covered structures, gas and electrical usually do. We handle all of it with your city as part of the project.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. CSLB License #1045801. Bonded and insured. Verify at cslb.ca.gov.
