Outdoor Living in Dagsboro, DE
Dagsboro backyards have something the coastal towns rarely offer: space. Above Grade, Inc. designs and builds complete outdoor living in Dagsboro, DE that takes advantage of it, with room for a full patio, fire feature, outdoor kitchen, and pool in one cohesive plan. Bayfront homes in communities like Seagrass Plantation still take wind and moisture off Indian River Bay, so we select materials accordingly, while wooded inland lots call for careful grading and drainage. One of our favorite local projects paired a patio and retaining wall with a custom chimney and landscape lighting right here in Dagsboro, and we would love to build your version of it.
Hardscaping Services & Backyard Patio Design
Above Grade, Inc. provides complete hardscaping services for Dagsboro, DE homeowners, including driveways, walkways, pool surrounds, and patios in concrete pavers, brick, and natural stone. Every project starts with a backyard patio design consultation on your property, where we walk through layout, materials, drainage, and budget before anything gets built. Larger Dagsboro lots often support multi-zone designs, with separate dining, lounging, and fire seating areas connected by paver walkways. We install both permeable and impermeable systems and build every base to handle Sussex County's sandy soil. Call today to schedule your free on-site consultation.
Fireplace / Fire Pit
The Dagsboro request we hear most is the backyard fire feature, and for good reason: evenings here are made for one. Above Grade, Inc. builds wood burning and gas fire pits, custom fireplaces in cinder block and stone veneer, and full outdoor chimneys, like the custom chimney we built for a Dagsboro home as part of a complete patio and lighting project. Benches, hearths, and wood storage can be worked into any design, and prefab options are available for tighter budgets. Whatever form the fire takes, we will make sure it anchors your outdoor living space beautifully.
Walls
From decorative garden borders to engineered retaining walls, Above Grade, Inc. builds walls that solve problems and look good doing it. Dagsboro properties with grade changes or wooded slopes often need retaining walls to create usable flat space for a patio or pool area, and we build them on proper footings, with engineered block systems where the application demands it. Decorative paver walls define planting beds and seating areas, while cinder block walls finished in natural or manufactured stone veneer carry warranties up to 50 years. If your yard needs structure, we have the wall for it.
Stonework
Stonework gives an outdoor project its character, and Above Grade, Inc. brings a full range of it to Dagsboro, DE. We install natural and manufactured stone veneer on columns, foundations, fireplaces, and exterior walls, and we work with bluestone, travertine, slate, and limestone for walkways, steps, and patio surfaces. Dry stacked or grouted, rustic or refined, our masons match the stone and finish to your home. We also handle pool coping and below-waterline stone for pool projects.

From an inground pool with natural stone coping and a paver surround to a compact swim spa with a travertine deck, we manage the complete build from excavation to final lighting. Dagsboro's larger lots are ideal for resort-style layouts that combine pool, patio, kitchen, and fire into one seamless outdoor living space.
