Outdoor living projects fail prematurely in Northeast Ohio for one reason: materials and methods chosen without accounting for the climate. Composite decking that cracks in freeze-thaw cycles. Patio pavers that heave after two winters. Pergolas built without proper footings for Ohio soil conditions.
Kaiser's landscape development division designs and builds outdoor spaces using materials and structural details rated for Northeast Ohio's conditions — so your investment holds up for decades, not just a season or two.
Composite and pressure-treated decking selected for Ohio freeze-thaw performance — not just aesthetics
Properly engineered footings drilled below Ohio's frost line — no post-frost heave
Paver patios installed with correct sub-base depth for Lorain County's clay-heavy soil
Permits pulled for all structural work — decks, pergolas, and retaining walls
Lifetime Kaiser workmanship warranty on every structure we build
From custom decks and patios to full landscape transformations, our outdoor division handles design, permits, and installation — all in-house.
Deck Construction
Custom decks in composite (Trex, TimberTech, Azek) or pressure-treated lumber. Footings drilled to Ohio frost depth. Railing systems, stairs, and built-in features designed and built by our crew.
Patio Installation
Paver, stamped concrete, and natural stone patio installation. Proper sub-base excavation and compaction for Lorain County’s clay soil — the step that determines whether your patio lasts 3 years or 30.
Pergolas & Structures
Freestanding and attached pergolas, gazebos, and shade structures. Engineered footings, proper beam sizing for Ohio wind loads, and cedar or composite material options.
Landscaping
Landscape design, bed installation, planting, mulching, and grading. We work with your existing landscape or start from scratch — always with Ohio’s growing conditions in mind.
Outdoor Lighting
Low-voltage landscape lighting for pathways, beds, and architectural features. Hardwired deck and patio lighting systems installed in coordination with structural work.
Fencing & Masonry
Wood, vinyl, and aluminum fence installation. Retaining walls, walkways, steps, and masonry work using materials rated for Ohio freeze-thaw cycles.
From Avon to Westlake — Northeast Ohio homeowners on their Outdoor experience with Kaiser.
"Our new deck is exactly what we envisioned. Kaiser handled the design, permit, and build — all one team. The composite material they recommended has held up perfectly through two Ohio winters."
"The patio looks incredible and hasn't moved an inch after last winter. They explained why the sub-base mattered for our clay soil — no other company even mentioned it."
"From the pergola to the landscaping to the lighting, everything came together perfectly. Kaiser turned our backyard into our favorite room. Highly recommend."
