Common Questions About Building an Outdoor Space in Michigan
-
ZLM Outdoor Living designs and builds complete outdoor living spaces across southeast Michigan, including patios, inground pools, outdoor kitchens, fire features, pergolas and pavilions, decks, driveways and walkways, retaining and seating walls, plantings, landscape lighting, and outdoor audio systems. The team is an authorized installer for Azenco louvered pergolas and MagnaTrack motorized screens, and a Unilock Authorized Contractor. A retail showroom in Casco carries outdoor furniture, so the same company that builds a space also outfits it. Commercial property owners work with ZLM Outdoor Living on landscape design and construction.
-
Design, construction, and furnishing all happen under one roof at ZLM Outdoor Living. The design team produces the layouts and renderings that show the finished space before ground is broken, and ZLM's own crews manage construction through every phase. Material selection, drafting, and permitting are handled in house during design development. Homeowners work with one team rather than coordinating a designer, a contractor, and a furniture store separately.

ZLM Outdoor Living is based in Casco, MI and works with homeowners and businesses throughout St. Clair, Macomb, and Oakland counties. Communities served include Shelby Township, Macomb Township, Washington Township, Rochester Hills, Troy, New Baltimore, Grosse Pointe, Bloomfield Hills, Armada Township, Ray Township, Columbus Township, Oakland Township, and Orchard Lake Village. Property owners just outside these communities are encouraged to call, since coverage depends on the scope of the project. A full list appears on the service areas page.
-
Every ZLM Outdoor Living project runs through the same five steps: discovery, design, design development, build and installation, and furnishing. The first conversation covers how the yard gets used now, what is not working, and what the finished space needs to do for the household. The design team then produces layouts and renderings so the plan is clear before construction begins. Material selections, drafting, and permitting are handled during design development, and ZLM crews build on the approved schedule. The last step outfits the finished space with furniture from the Casco showroom.
