The Project

When a Calgary homeowner came to Pittman Concrete with a wishlist for their outdoor space, they wanted a complete backyard transformation, and they wanted someone who could handle all of it. Pittman Concrete took on the role of general contractor for the project, delivering every element in-house from initial design through to the final finishing details.

 

Final Product

The Scope

Design 

The project began with a full exterior design and planning process managed by Pittman Concrete's in-house, award-winning designer. Working closely with the homeowner, we developed an outdoor concept that honoured the full wishlist while staying within budget.

Concrete Pour & Finish 

Exposed aggregate was used throughout the project, with stamped concrete inserts adding custom detail at key locations. Concrete elements included:

  • Driveway
  • Steps and risers
  • Sidewalks
  • Patios

Specialty Concrete Fish Pond 

The centrepiece of the backyard was a specialty curved outdoor fish pond with a negative edge and a natural stone waterfall. It was a technically demanding pour requiring precise forming, finishing, and coordination with the surrounding hard landscaping.
