Backyard pergola and outdoor living space at dusk

We design and build pergolas, patio covers, outdoor kitchens, concrete patios and landscaping as one coordinated project.

Our concrete, carpentry and electrical crews coordinate footings, patio drainage, lighting and power connections.

Planning your project in Hayward

Our Hayward services include ADUs, kitchen and bathroom remodeling, and concrete driveways.

The local housing includes 1950s–70s tracts plus older downtown stock and newer hillside homes. Post-war properties may have room for a patio, pergola or outdoor kitchen. We assess the available space, drainage and access before planning the layout.

We serve Hayward, including Hayward Highlands, Fairway Park, Mt. Eden and Glen Eden. Project planning here accounts for proximity to the Hayward Fault, which shapes structural work on additions. We consider orientation, shade, wind exposure and footing requirements when planning outdoor structures.

Permits and inspections in Hayward

Permits for work in Hayward go through the City of Hayward Permit Center. Whether a structure needs a permit comes down to size, height and attachment to the house — we confirm the threshold before design is final. We handle the permit application and coordinate inspections.

Frequently asked questions

Do pergolas need permits in Hayward?

It depends. Whether a pergola needs a permit in Hayward comes down to size, height and attachment to the house — Hayward exempts some smaller detached structures. We confirm requirements for your design and pull the permit when one's needed.

Wood or aluminum pergola?

Wood offers a natural finish and flexible detailing; aluminum generally needs less maintenance. We build both and can help you compare appearance, upkeep and site exposure.

Can you do the whole backyard — concrete, pergola and landscaping?

Yes. AZ Elevated Builders can include concrete, a pergola and landscaping in one backyard project. We coordinate grades, drainage, footings and planting in the same plan.
