Outdoor Living & Exterior in Palmetto Bay
Outdoor living in the Village of Parks.
In Palmetto Bay, the lot is half the reason you bought the house. This is the self-declared Village of Parks, with Coral Reef Park up the road and the Deering Estate anchoring Old Cutler Road, and yards here run large enough for real outdoor rooms rather than a token patio. Owners across Mangowood, Coral Reef Estates, and East Palmetto Bay hire us for covered terraces with tongue-and-groove ceilings, summer kitchens that can actually host, pergolas over dining areas, and driveways and entries upgraded to match the house behind them.
Outdoor structures in Palmetto Bay are permitted work: anything with footings, a roof, gas, or electrical goes through the Village's Building and Permitting Department, and in Miami-Dade's High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, pergolas and covered terraces must be engineered for wind load with county-approved products, not assembled from a kit and optimism. The village's tree rules matter outdoors most of all, since driveways and slabs near protected root zones can require DERM permits and careful design. Waterfront owners east of Old Cutler Road also plan around flood zones when adding hard structures.
What PGX brings outdoors is the same discipline we bring inside: one contractor responsible for the slab, the roof tie-in, the gas line to the grill, the electrical, and the finish work, instead of four trades pointing at each other. The scope and price are fixed in writing, a supervisor is on site every working day, and lawns, pool decks, and gated entries are protected and kept clean, which your neighbors in a community like Royal Harbour Yacht Club will quietly appreciate. Twenty-plus years in South Florida taught us that outdoor work is judged in August, not on delivery day.

What's included
Outdoor projects we build.
Backyard structures, hardscape, and the envelope of the house itself, each priced as a defined scope with engineering where wind loads demand it.
Covered terraces for salt air
Roofed outdoor rooms tied structurally into the house, with fans, lighting, and ceilings detailed to survive salt air and summer storms.
Summer kitchens that host holidays
Grills, refrigeration, and stone counters with permitted gas and electrical runs, built for the family that hosts every holiday.
Pergolas anchored for storm season
Engineered for High-Velocity Hurricane Zone wind loads and anchored on proper footings, so the shade stays put through storm season.
Driveways drawn around the canopy
Pavers, concrete, and entry walks designed around Palmetto Bay's protected trees, with drainage that respects both the county and gravity.
Exterior envelope upgrades
Stucco repair and paint, impact doors and windows, and re-roof coordination, handled as one sequenced project instead of three separate headaches.
