Built on Standards.
Run Like a Real
Construction Build.
Most outdoor projects don’t fail because of bad materials. They fail because no one is thinking about the whole picture.
Grading is done without considering drainage. Irrigation gets installed after concrete is poured. Trades show up out of sequence.
And by the time problems show up, the patio is already down and the sod is already installed.
We built Altavera to solve that problem.
One team. One point of contact. One coordinated outdoor construction build — managed from grading and drainage to final walkthrough.
No isolated trades. No guesswork. No chaos.
Our clients aren’t looking for the cheapest option. They’re looking for certainty.
They want to know the project will be sequenced correctly, communicated clearly, and finished without loose ends.
That’s the standard we operate on — from the first site visit to the final punch list.

Drainage and grading come first
Trades are sequenced intentionally
Clear communication at every phase

Scheduling & Pre-Construction
Materials are ordered, trades are coordinated, and logistics are planned. You’re informed ahead of time - not surprised in the driveway.
Site Prep & Foundation Work
Excavation, grading, drainage, and base preparation - the phase that determines long-term durability. We don’t rush what makes it last.

New Construction Homeowners Finishing a Builder-Grade Yard
If you recently built or purchased a new home, your backyard may still feel builder-basic - sod, a small concrete pad, and limited function.
We help turn a blank slate into a complete outdoor living environment with proper grading, drainage, hardscape, irrigation, fencing, and structures planned as one build.
Homeowners Who’ve Had a Bad Contractor Experience
Many clients come to us after delays, poor communication, and work that creates problems later - drainage issues, grading problems, or unfinished details.
Altavera runs projects with clear scope, sequencing, and one point of contact so you know what’s happening and what’s next.
Families Upgrading Their Outdoor Living Space
You may already have a yard that technically works, but it’s not being used the way it could - the patio is too small, there’s no shade, or drainage limits how you use the space.
We build outdoor spaces that function for real life - entertaining, family dinners, and day-to-day living - so the backyard feels like a true extension of the home.
Relocation Buyers Settling Into the Treasure Valley
If you recently moved to the Boise area, the backyard is often the last piece that makes the property feel complete.
We account for Idaho-specific site conditions, irrigation needs, grading, drainage, and HOA requirements so your outdoor space looks right and performs long-term.
Outdoor Construction FAQs - Boise, Idaho
Quick answers to common questions about backyard design-build, hardscapes, drainage, irrigation, and outdoor structures in Boise and the Treasure Valley.
Do you offer free estimates for outdoor construction in Boise, Idaho?
We start with a structured consultation, not a quick “driveway quote.”
Backyard projects in Boise often involve grading, drainage, hardscape base prep, irrigation planning, and trade sequencing. We confirm scope, site constraints, and priorities first - then we discuss realistic budget ranges.
If it’s a fit, we move into planning and proposal development with clear scope and next steps.
What’s the difference between Altavera and a landscaping company?
Altavera is an outdoor construction contractor - not a “mow-and-blow” landscaper.
We coordinate complete outdoor builds: grading, drainage, pavers and patios, irrigation, outdoor kitchens, patio covers, pergolas, and related structures - managed under one clear scope.
Sequencing is the difference. Drainage and base prep happen before hardscape. Irrigation is designed into the plan, not added after. Trades are scheduled intentionally so work doesn’t get torn out and redone.
Do you manage subcontractors and the full backyard build?
Yes - we manage the full scope under one project plan and one point of contact.
Some specialized trades may be involved, but they are scheduled and coordinated by Altavera. You don’t manage subs, timelines, deliveries, or trade handoffs.
How much does a full backyard renovation cost in Boise and the Treasure Valley?
Most full backyard renovations vary based on grading, drainage, structures, materials, and total scope.
Hardscape (pavers, patios), patio covers or pergolas, outdoor kitchens, and drainage solutions can move budgets significantly depending on site conditions and design complexity.
During the consultation, we’ll clarify priorities and give you realistic ranges based on your property and the outcome you want.
What areas do you serve near Boise?
We serve Boise and the Treasure Valley, including Meridian, Eagle, Star, Kuna, Nampa, Caldwell, Middleton, Garden City, and Emmett.
How long does a backyard design-build project take?
Timeline depends on scope, weather, and permitting/HOA requirements.
Most projects include planning + selections first, then construction sequencing (grading/drainage, hardscape base prep, concrete/pavers, irrigation, structures, and final finishes). We’ll give a clear timeline once scope is defined.
Do you handle drainage and grading before patios and pavers?
Yes - drainage and grading are handled first whenever the site requires it.
In the Treasure Valley, poor drainage is one of the most common reasons patios settle, pavers shift, and lawns stay soggy. We address water movement and base prep before hardscape so the project performs long-term.
Do you obtain permits and handle HOA approvals for outdoor construction projects?
Yes. When permits are required, Altavera Construction obtains them and manages the process as part of the project scope.
Outdoor structures such as patio covers, pergolas, retaining walls, outdoor kitchens, and certain hardscape installations may require city permits or HOA approvals depending on location and design.
We coordinate documentation, submissions, and approvals so your project stays compliant with Boise and Treasure Valley building requirements.
