Alright Bellevue, let’s talk about something important… your backyard.
You know, that space you keep calling your “outdoor oasis” even though it’s really just a patch of grass, a wobbly patio chair, and a grill that hasn’t seen action since your last attempt at hosting “Taco Tuesday” (which was on a Saturday, and let’s be real—it was just hot dogs with salsa).

You work hard. You live in one of the nicest cities in the Pacific Northwest. It’s time to have a backyard that reflects that. A space that feels like a staycation without needing to board a plane or wear Crocs in public.
You need the Ultimate Outdoor Living Setup, and yes—Euro Decks is about to show you how to make it happen.


Outdoor Living: Not Just for the Rich and Instagram Famous

Now I know what some of you are thinking:
“Outdoor living? I got a lawn chair, a Bluetooth speaker, and a fire pit I bought during a midnight impulse scroll—I’m good.”

No. You’re not good.
You’re surviving, and we’re trying to thrive out here, Bellevue.

The ultimate outdoor living setup means more than just a place to flip burgers. It’s about creating a space where you can unwind, entertain, and actually enjoy the five minutes of sunshine we get between May and September.


Step 1: Start With a Custom Deck or Patio

This is your foundation, your stage, your home base for every BBQ, birthday, or “I just needed five minutes away from the kids” moment.

🔨 Custom Deck

Want something with warm wood tones that makes the neighbors jealous? Boom. We got you.
Need built-in seating, planters, or a multi-level setup so you can act like you’re filming an HGTV episode? Done.

🧱 Patio Life

Stone pavers, stamped concrete, whatever fits your vibe—we design it to blend seamlessly with your home’s style.

No more tripping on that uneven slab you pretend is “vintage.”
This is next-level backyard flooring, baby.


Step 2: Add Some Shade (Because Sunburns Aren’t a Vibe)

Look, we love the sun. But Bellevue weather goes from “beautiful” to “scorched Earth” real quick in July. You need cover. Not just for your skin, but for your style.

☀️ Options to Stay Cool:

  • Pergolas: Sleek, elegant, and perfect for showing off your fancy Edison bulb lighting.

  • Patio Covers: Full overhead protection. Rain, shine, or surprise summer hailstorm—you’re chillin’.

  • Retractable Awnings: Because sometimes you want shade, and sometimes you want to feel the burn (emotionally and literally).


Step 3: Fire It Up—Literally

You ever notice how people always end up gathered around the fire? It’s like some primal, caveman DNA thing. Doesn’t matter if it’s 85 degrees or you’re sweating through your hoodie—fire brings people together.

🔥 Your Fire Feature Options:

  • Built-in Fire Pits: Custom stone or concrete designs that look like they cost a fortune (they don’t).

  • Fire Tables: Chic. Compact. Fancy enough to make you raise your pinky while holding a s’more.

  • Outdoor Fireplaces: The Cadillac of backyard heat sources. Romance, relaxation, and roasted marshmallows—all in one.


Step 4: Lighting That Sets the Mood (And Helps You See Stuff)

Let’s be honest—your current lighting setup is either a porch light that flickers like a haunted house or a solar path light that died in 2019. Not. Good. Enough.

We install real lighting—strategically placed, beautifully designed, and totally functional.

💡 Illuminate the Good Times:

  • Deck Lights: Embedded into stairs and railings, so no one breaks an ankle at the cookout.

  • Accent Lights: Show off your landscaping like it’s a Monet painting.

  • String Lights: Instant backyard magic. You could be eating cereal out there and it’ll still feel like date night.


Step 5: Outdoor Kitchen or Bar? Yes, Please.

Cooking inside while your guests are outside? Rookie move. You’re supposed to be part of the party, not stuck behind a screen door yelling, “Is the chicken done?!”

🧑‍🍳 Cook Like a King:

  • Built-in grills

  • Prep stations

  • Mini-fridges

  • Sinks

  • Custom countertops

Or just go full lounge mode and let us install a backyard bar. Because cocktails taste better when you’re not standing in your kitchen wondering if the ice maker’s broken again.


Bonus: Seating & Privacy That Actually Makes Sense

Don’t just toss some chairs on the lawn and call it a day. Let us build:

  • Built-in benches with storage

  • Lounge zones for different parts of your yard

  • Privacy screens so your neighbors can’t see your business (no offense, Karen)
