The Mitchell Crew prides ourselves on delivering exceptional customer service and the highest quality workmanship on every project for every home.

The process begins with a free, no obligation visit to your home. We will listen to your personal needs to better understand what you're looking for in a custom deck or patio. Next, we'll go over the many ways we can help you achieve those goals while staying within your budget. Then, we will provide you with a custom deck design and estimate so you can make the right decision for your home and family. Existing landscapes of the property and architecture of the home are all taken into careful consideration with each of our designs.

Lighting is an essential part of any landscape design as it contributes not only to the overall look of the space, but also adds a few safety elements too. As you think of ways to create the backyard space of your dreams, here's what you need to know about deck and patio lighting. Before we get into the fun, decorative options, let's first cover some choices to make that will help you use your outdoor living space better and more safely. First on the list are stairs and entryways as those pose the most danger after dark.
