FAQ's For Outdoor Living

Can BGW design and build a complete outdoor living space from scratch?

What areas does BGW's outdoor living service serve?
BGW builds outdoor living projects across Plainfield, Avon, Brownsburg, Danville, Zionsville, Whitestown, and the rest of Hendricks County, plus the west side of Indianapolis.
Does BGW offer design plans for outdoor spaces, or do I need a plan already?
BGW offers Home Design Plans for outdoor projects, including layout drafts and renderings, so you can visualize the finished space before construction begins.
How does BGW's outdoor living service relate to the BGW Outdoor Living / Ladd Scape legacy?
BGW Outdoor Living incorporates the legacy of Ladd Scape, bringing decades of landscape and outdoor construction expertise into its current offering.
Will an outdoor living space increase my home's value?
Generally yes. Outdoor improvements boost property value, curb appeal, and marketability, in addition to how you use and enjoy your home.
What outdoor projects are most popular with BGW customers?
Covered porches, decks, concrete patios, and outdoor kitchens are standout projects. Fire pits and hardscape features are frequently paired with these.
Can I combine multiple outdoor features into one project?
Yes. BGW designs outdoor spaces to integrate multiple features cohesively rather than building them as disconnected add-ons.
What time of year is best to start planning an outdoor living project?
Planning ahead is best. Consultations can begin any time, but lead time for design, permitting, and scheduling means fall or winter planning often positions projects well for spring and summer completion.
How do I get started on an outdoor living project with BGW?
Contact BGW at (317) 268-4487 or through the consultation form at bgwconstructionllc.com. You can upload photos of your yard and any inspiration images to help scope the project.
What should I budget for an outdoor living project?
Outdoor living covers a wide range: a concrete or paver patio often runs $6,000 to $25,000, a deck $10,000 to $40,000, and an outdoor kitchen from a few thousand dollars to $30,000 or more. BGW gives a firm number after a free consultation.
Does BGW build pergolas and shade structures?
Yes. Pergolas, shade structures, and covered elements are part of BGW’s outdoor living work, often built alongside a patio, deck, or outdoor kitchen so the whole space works together.
Do I need a permit for an outdoor living project?
Sometimes, and it depends on the project and your town. As a general rule, anything attached to your home, anything with a roof, a deck above a certain height, and anything that runs gas, water, or electric like an outdoor kitchen or a gas fire feature will require a permit. A simple ground-level paver or concrete patio often does not, but the rules vary by municipality across Hendricks County. You do not have to sort this out. BGW pulls the permits and coordinates the inspections as part of the project.
Can BGW design my whole backyard and build it in phases?
Yes. BGW designs the complete outdoor space up front, then builds it in phases if that fits your budget better. Planning the whole yard first means each phase, the patio, the covered structure, the kitchen, connects into one cohesive space instead of a set of add-ons.
Which outdoor projects add the most value?
Covered porches, decks, and complete outdoor living spaces tend to boost property value, curb appeal, and marketability the most. But the return that matters day to day is how much you actually use the space, which is Return on Enjoyment. BGW helps you weigh both.
