Outdoor Living Spaces in Morgantown, WV
Decks, patios, outdoor kitchens, and fire pits designed together as one project — with a free 3D rendering of the whole backyard.
A deck alone is a platform. A patio alone is a slab. An outdoor living space is the whole backyard working as one project — the deck where you grill, the patio where you eat, the fire pit where the evening ends, and the lighting that ties it together. In Morgantown, where the building season is short and the hillsides give you natural views, designing it all at once gets you more usable space for the money than piecing it together over five years.
Title Construction designs and builds complete outdoor living spaces across the Morgantown area, including Cheat Lake. As a general contractor, the whole project runs under one contract: deck, patio, outdoor kitchen, pergola, lighting, and drainage — one schedule, no coordinating separate trades.
Our Design-Build Process
It starts with a free on-site consultation. Expect the entire yard walked — grade, sun exposure, views, where water goes when it rains — and a real conversation about how you want to use the space. Then a free 3D rendering of the full design: the deck, the patio, the outdoor kitchen or fire pit area, and how they connect. You see the whole backyard finished before any work breaks ground.
Because it's one project, the sequencing should work the way it should: grading and drainage first, then hardscape, then structures, then electrical and lighting, then finishes. Timelines vary with scope — larger, more complete projects take longer. Confirm your contractor handles permits for every part of the build.
What Goes Into an Outdoor Living Space
- Decks — composite or wood, often multi-level on Morgantown's sloped lots
- Patios and hardscapes — pavers or natural stone, built with proper base and drainage
- Outdoor kitchens — grill stations, counter space, and storage plumbed and wired in
- Fire pits and fireplaces — wood-burning or gas, the feature that extends the season into fall
- Pergolas and shade structures — for the yards that bake in afternoon sun
- Landscape lighting — path lights, deck lights, and accent lighting on one system
FAQs
Why do it all as one project instead of piece by piece?
Three reasons: it’s cheaper (one mobilization, one permit process, shared grading work), it looks better (everything is designed to match), and you get to use the whole space a year or two sooner. Building a deck now and a patio in two years means paying for site work twice.
How much does an outdoor living space cost in Morgantown, WV?
It depends on scope — a deck-plus-patio project costs less than a project with an outdoor kitchen, fireplace, or extensive lighting. Expect the design to be worked to your budget at the consultation, with the 3D rendering showing you where the money goes.
Do you work in Cheat Lake?
Yes — Cheat Lake is one of Title Construction’s regular service areas for outdoor projects. The lakefront and hillside lots out there are well suited to multi-level outdoor designs.
