Aurora, CO · Family-owned
Owner-built by Jon & Janessa LangFull outdoor-living spaces — outdoor kitchens, fire features, decks and covers — built for SE Aurora views and walkout lots. Built by Jon & Janessa Lang.
Built for SE Aurora
A lot of SE Aurora lots look out on the Aurora Reservoir, the golf courses, and the Front Range. We build the deck, the covered area, the outdoor kitchen, and the fire feature so the whole backyard frames that view — not just a deck stuck on the back of the house.
Lots of homes out here are walkout lots, where the main floor sits a full story above the yard. We step the build down to the ground so you can flow from the kitchen to the fire pit to the grass, all on one design that fits the way your lot sits.
“We were in need of a new deck and patio (and for fun a custom fire pit). The estimate was reasonable and their work was excellent. Our backyard has been transformed and we have John and Janessa to thank for that.”

Most backyard projects here trace back to the view, the soil, the sun, or a skipped permit. We build for all of them.
So many SE Aurora lots have reservoir, golf, and Front Range views worth keeping. We lay out the deck, kitchen and fire feature around that view, and use thin railing and open view fences so nothing blocks it.
The clay under SE Aurora swells up when it gets wet, and that's what pushes a build up off the house. We set the posts and footings down deep, about three feet, to solid ground, so a wet spring can't lift it.
The Front Range sits in what folks call Hail Alley, and the sun out here is strong. We build covered areas for hail and shade, and use tougher materials so your backyard holds up summer after summer.
The City of Aurora runs its own building office (303-739-7420) and permits the whole city — not the county. Your HOA has to say yes first, and on golf or reservoir lots the back has to keep an open view fence. We handle it all.
“The inspector was impressed by their system and mentioned this deck is built to withstand a hurricane.”
Dominic ValenzuelaWhat we see in Aurora yards
After a few hundred Front Range builds, the backyard requests from SE Aurora are predictable in the best way. Odds are yours is on this list — and we've already solved it.
A built-in grill, a counter, and a place to prep — so summer dinners move outside. We build the kitchen into the deck or patio so it all looks like one space, not a grill pushed off to the side.
A fire pit or fire feature is the spot the whole family ends up on a cool Front Range night. We build it into the seating area so it has its own place in the backyard, ready to use.
The SE Aurora suburbs are full of walkout lots, where the main floor sits a full story above the yard. We step the build down, level by level, to the grass — so you can flow from the deck to the yard.
On the higher lots and the homes near the Aurora Reservoir, you can see the Front Range and even Pikes Peak. We lay the whole space out around that view and use thin railing so it doesn't get in the way.
The sun out here is strong and the hail is real. We build a covered area into the backyard so you've got shade in July and a roof over the kitchen and seating when the weather turns.
A lot of folks want more than one thing — a deck with a cover, an outdoor kitchen, a fire feature, and a view fence, all built together. One crew, one schedule, and it all matches when we're done.

Real, verified reviews from real Colorado yards. The same names come up again and again: Jon, Janessa, and a crew that takes pride in the details.
“We were in need of a new deck and patio (and for fun a custom fire pit). The estimate was reasonable and their work was excellent. Our backyard has been transformed and we have John and Janessa to thank for that.”
“Their crew did a great job replacing my large deck and were easy to communicate with. They patched up my brick masonry around the deck posts to make sure it looks best.”
“We use them on our projects and refer them for decks, fences, barns and remodels. Always willing to do what it takes, on time and enthusiastic.”
