Create Beautiful Outdoor Living Spaces
Your outdoor living space should be an extension of your home — a place where comfort, design, and functionality converge. Whether you’re looking to create a tranquil front porch, a spacious backyard deck, or a beautifully paved patio, Berriz Design Build in Arlington, Virginia, is here to bring your vision to life. With more than 30 years of remodeling excellence, our team combines superior craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and personalized service to transform your outdoor areas into show-stopping, year-round retreats.
Why Invest in Custom Outdoor Living Spaces?
Decks, patios, and porches are more than just “nice-to-haves” — they’re practical and stylish additions that increase your home’s value, enhance curb appeal, and create new areas for entertaining, dining, and relaxing. Especially in Northern Virginia, where homeowners enjoy four beautiful seasons, these spaces can be designed for year-round use with the right materials and enhancements.
A custom-designed outdoor space:
Provides additional square footage for relaxation and gatherings
Improves home aesthetics and resale potential
Creates opportunities for seamless indoor-outdoor living
Enhances the functionality of your backyard or front entry
Allows you to enjoy nature from the comfort of your home
Deck Design & Remodeling
Decks are a versatile outdoor solution that can be tailored to any lifestyle — whether you want an elevated platform for entertaining, a multi-level lounging area, or a poolside retreat. At Berriz Design Build, we specialize in custom deck construction using a variety of high-quality materials, including:
Natural wood (like cedar or pressure-treated pine)
Composite decking (such as Trex or TimberTech) for durability and low maintenance
Hardwoods (such as Ipe or Mahogany) for an exotic, premium look
Our design team works closely with you to understand your goals and space limitations, crafting decks with built-in features like lighting, seating, planters, pergolas, and railings. Whether you’re replacing an old structure or starting from scratch, we’ll design a custom solution that blends beautifully with your home’s style.
Patio Design & Remodeling
A custom patio provides a strong foundation for your outdoor lifestyle. Patios are ideal for creating elegant entertainment areas, firepit lounges, or outdoor kitchens. Berriz Design Build uses a range of premium materials to give your patio the look and longevity you expect, including:
Brick
Natural stone (such as flagstone or bluestone)
Concrete pavers
Stamped and stained concrete
We take care of everything — from grading and drainage to creative layout and finishing touches. Our team can integrate your patio with your landscaping, lighting, and even water features for a luxurious outdoor experience.
Porch Design & Remodeling
Your front porch sets the tone for your entire home, offering a welcoming space to greet guests or unwind after a long day. A screened-in back porch provides a protected spot to enjoy the outdoors, rain or shine. Berriz Design Build creates both open-air and enclosed porches that enhance charm and usability. Features we can incorporate include:
Custom columns and railings
Beadboard ceilings with fans and recessed lighting
Durable flooring like composite decking or tile
Screening systems for insect protection
Stylish trim details to match your home’s exterior
We can even convert your existing porch into a 3-season or 4-season room, adding insulation, windows, and climate control for year-round comfort.
