Pools, decks, outdoor kitchens, and patios, planned by licensed landscape architects for Cumming's new neighborhoods, homes west of town, and the city permit process.
Designed for city lots
Sugar Hill Outdoors is an outdoor living contractor serving Cumming, GA, from homes near the square to neighborhoods along Pilgrim Mill Road. A licensed landscape architect studies your grade, setbacks, and easements on site. You review the finished yard in 3D, and we build exactly what you approved.

For Cumming homeowners
Pools, decks, and outdoor kitchens for Cumming homes, planned around the way your family hosts.

We add a spa or waterfall where it suits the yard. Inside city limits, your Cumming pool builder pulls the city pool permit.
Custom pools
A stacked stone Belgard grill island holds your grill plus a Big Green Egg or Blackstone. It fits in-town lots near City Center.
Outdoor kitchens
Your deck builder adds level space right off the house in Trex composite or pressure-treated wood, with a finished dry room below.
Decks & under-deck systems
A paver patio sized for your table and chairs. In Berkeley Mill, we prepare the drawings for architectural review.
Paver patios
Picture it finished
Picture a lot off Bettis-Tribble Gap Road, with Sawnee Mountain rising past the trees. The pool lights are on, the spa is warm, and the deck off the kitchen is full of friends.
Burgers come off the stacked stone grill island a few steps away. Once the kids climb out of the pool, everyone pulls chairs around the stone fire pit and talks until the pool lights click off.
Around Cumming
Lot size, slope, and HOA rules shift from one side of the city to the other.
Explore Cumming on the mapHomes close to downtown sit on established lots with mature trees. Your pool contractor plans equipment access and root zones around neighbors close by.
North of downtown, this development is adding single-family homes on freshly built streets. Your plan starts from the builder's grading and any community design guidelines.
West of town, the ground climbs toward Sawnee Mountain. Your deck builder and masons turn that rise into level decks and terraces you can use.
Berkeley Mill brings detached homes and an amenity area off this road. As your deck contractor, we prepare drawings for your community's architectural review before work starts.
Ashton Woods is a conservation subdivision with shared open space near Lake Lanier. Your patio and walls stay inside your lot lines, clear of common ground.
This road runs east from SR 9 to the city's park on Lake Lanier. Where a yard meets Corps-managed shoreline, every feature stays on your side of the line.
City permits
A Cumming mailing address covers far more ground than the city itself. Inside the limits, the City of Cumming Department of Planning and Zoning on Main Street reviews your project.
The city's fence and retaining wall permit asks for a site plan showing setbacks, buffers, and easements, with inspections along the way. Pools get their own city permit, which your pool builder files. We confirm your jurisdiction and prepare the drawings each office needs.
