Tampa Bay Design–Build

Outdoor Living in Tampa Bay

Lanais, pool decks, outdoor kitchens, and pergolas that extend your living space outside.

Florida living happens outside, and a well-built outdoor space is one of the highest-enjoyment, strong-return investments a Tampa Bay homeowner can make. Done right, a lanai or screened patio becomes a true extension of the house rather than a neglected backyard.

LRG Contractors Group designs and builds lanais, screened enclosures, pool decks, pergolas, outdoor kitchens, and complete backyard transformations — structurally sound, properly drained, built to Florida wind ratings, and finished to match your home's quality.

From a Brandon lanai for year-round entertaining to a Clearwater pool deck and outdoor kitchen, we build outdoor spaces that hold up to Florida's sun, rain, and storms — and the years.

Timeline

Most outdoor living projects run 3–8 weeks depending on scope and any permitting.

Permits & code

Screen enclosures, structures over certain sizes, and outdoor electrical/gas lines require permits and must meet Florida Building Code wind ratings. We handle the permits your project needs.

Key things to consider

  • Drainage and grading are what make outdoor work last through Florida's rainy season.
  • Screen enclosures and structures must be engineered for code wind loads.
  • Outdoor kitchens need gas, water, and electrical planned in early.
  • Match the finish to the house so it reads as part of the home.

Outdoor Living — frequently asked questions

Do lanais and outdoor structures need a permit?

Screen enclosures, larger structures, and anything with gas or electrical generally do, and they must meet Florida wind-load requirements. We determine exactly what your project requires and handle the permits.

Will my outdoor space hold up to Florida storms?

When it's engineered and built to code, yes. We design lanais, enclosures, and structures to Florida Building Code wind ratings and detail them to drain properly through heavy rain.
