How We Built The Team

Built by People Who Know Their Craft

Before becoming Pacific Outdoor Living, the company began as Pacific Pavingstone, specializing in paving stone driveways and patios. As homeowners asked for more complete outdoor spaces, the work grew into fireplaces, pools, planting, lighting and full landscape design-build projects.

That expansion taught the team a lasting lesson: every trade needs people who truly know their craft. Pacific Outdoor Living built professional training systems for crews, designers, site analyzers, estimators and supervisors so each stage of the project could be handled with clearer judgment and consistency.

Today, measuring, design, coordination and construction are connected through one Pacific Outdoor Living team.

The People Clients Remember

Great Projects Begin With a Great Team

A hillside garden at dusk designed by Julian Montford, with a lit fire pit and chairs, a timber pergola and a boulder-lined creek above a valley view

Pacific Outdoor Living did an incredible job transforming both our front and back yards. They turned our rarely used backyard into a stunning and functional space, incorporating a new pool, pavers, and artificial turf. We met with at least four other pool builders, but POL stood out for their ability to handle every aspect of the project seamlessly, from design to construction to landscaping. Huge credit goes to our designer, Julian, for creating a layout that maximized our limited space.

A completed Southern California garden with a pool, paved terrace and layered planting designed by Samantha Hung

They are hands down the best, most reliable company for any outdoor project. We moved into a new home in December and with record rainfall in the months that followed, we learned very quickly that our new property had major drainage issues. The previous owners had also let invasive trees and plants grow all over the property, creating a massive root system under our .3 acre property. The projects seemed so overwhelming and daunting, but when we found POL, we knew it would be worth the extra cost for a reliable company that could take care of the necessary underground problems while also making it beautiful on the surface. From the beginning, Samantha, our designer, did an incredible job of taking our words and inspiration photos to create a design exactly in line with what we wanted. Even though the full project wasn’t in our budget at the time, we then worked together to decide on phases and prioritize what needed to get done immediately and what we could do later.

Completed landscape planting and hardscape detail from a Pacific Outdoor Living project

I waited many years to tackle the renovation of my backyard space. A small slope in the backyard, drainage issues, a 60 year old patio cover and inconsistent hardscape had to be addressed. So many 'moving pieces' to the project (design, demolition, irrigation, hardscape, landscaping, etc.) left me feeling 'stuck'. I hit it off immediately with my designer, Samantha. She explained the entire process and presented me with design solutions perfect for my situation. I felt very confident putting my trust in POL. POL graded my backyard to provide more valuable space for entertaining and a more cohesive look that 'flows' beautifully. The attention to detail was stunning.
