Outdoor Living

The Space Between Your Back Door and the Rest of Your Property

There's a gap in most Greensboro backyards — between what the space is and what it could actually be. An unshaded patio nobody uses past noon. A yard that looks fine from inside but doesn't invite anyone to go out. A grill that lives alone on a concrete slab with nowhere comfortable to sit around it.

Outdoor living isn't about adding features to a yard. It's about building a real environment — one with a kitchen to cook in, a fire to gather around, a shaded structure that makes afternoon heat manageable, lighting that keeps the space going after dark, and enough comfortable seating that nobody wants to go back inside.

  • Patio design & installation — paver, flagstone, travertine, natural stone
  • Outdoor kitchens, grill stations & outdoor bars
  • Fire pits & outdoor fireplaces — wood & gas
  • Pergolas, pavilions & shade structures
  • Outdoor lighting — path, accent, uplighting & string
  • Seating walls & retaining walls integrated into the space
  • Landscaping & planting around the hardscape
  • Full-scope project coordination — one crew, one contract
We do not quote outdoor living projects without an on-site visit. All design and installation is in-house — never subcontracted. One company, one contract, one point of accountability.

What We Build

Outdoor Living Services

A full breakdown of what we design and build — and how we approach each service. Every element is installed by our own in-house licensed crew. No handoffs, no day labor, no gaps between what was promised and what gets delivered.

Patio & Outdoor Space Design

Every outdoor living space starts with a surface. How it's laid out, what it's made of, and how it connects to the rest of your yard determines whether the space actually gets used — or just looks nice in listing photos. We design patios around the way you plan to live in them: where the dining table goes, where guests flow naturally, how the kitchen and fire feature relate to each other.

Material selection in Greensboro is a real consideration. Pavers, flagstone, travertine, and natural stone all behave differently through NC's warm summers and seasonal freezes. We spec what holds up long-term and install it with the sub-base preparation that keeps it level and stable five years from now, not just five weeks after we leave.

Paver Patios

Belgard, Techo-Bloc, and Cambridge systems. Most requested material in Greensboro.

Flagstone Patios

Hand-set irregular or cut flagstone for a natural, timeless look. Works with most landscape styles.

Travertine Patios

Tumbled or honed travertine for a refined outdoor aesthetic. Cool underfoot, highly durable in NC climate.

Natural Stone

Bluestone, slate, and granite options for a one-of-a-kind surface custom to your property.

Outdoor Kitchens & Grill Stations

A built-in outdoor kitchen changes how you use your backyard more than almost any other single addition. It eliminates the back-and-forth between house and yard. It turns grilling into hosting. It gives your outdoor space a center of gravity — a place where people naturally collect when you have company, without anyone directing them there.

We design outdoor kitchens around the way you actually cook and entertain — not around a catalog layout. Whether that's a focused grill station with a prep counter or a fully equipped outdoor kitchen with a sink, refrigeration, and a bar for guests, we build what fits your yard, your habits, and your budget. All masonry is done by our own crew using materials rated for outdoor exposure in NC's climate.

Full Outdoor Kitchens

Countertops, cabinetry, side burners, prep areas, and optional sink and refrigerator hookups.

Built-In Grill Stations

Custom masonry grill surrounds with counter space, storage, and a practical layout.

Outdoor Bars

Counter-height bar seating and entertaining areas that give guests a destination.

Dining Structures

Integrated dining areas with shade structures, lighting, and seating built around how you host.

Fire pit outdoor living space Patio with fire feature Greensboro

Fire Pits & Outdoor Fireplaces

A fire feature extends every evening you spend outside and stretches your outdoor season on both ends — March evenings that would otherwise be too cool, October nights that would otherwise push you back inside. It also gives the space something that no furniture arrangement can manufacture: a natural gathering point that organizes every conversation around it without anyone planning it that way.

We build custom fire pits and outdoor fireplaces in natural stone, manufactured stone, and paver — positioned and scaled to work with your patio layout rather than dropped in as an afterthought. Gas fire features are also available for homeowners who prefer instant ignition or need to comply with HOA restrictions on open burning.

Custom Stone Fire Pits

In-ground and above-grade fire pit construction in natural stone or paver — sized to your seating arrangement.

Outdoor Fireplaces

Full masonry outdoor fireplaces — freestanding or wall-integrated — that anchor the space architecturally.

Gas Fire Features

Natural gas and propane fire pits and tables. Instant ignition, zero cleanup — HOA-compliant options available.

Seating Walls

Integrated stone seating walls around fire features that give every fire night a place to sit without pulling up lawn chairs.

Pergolas, Pavilions & Shade Structures

Shade separates a patio people use all day from one they abandon by late morning in a Greensboro summer. A pergola also does something that no chair arrangement or umbrella can replicate: it gives your outdoor space a ceiling. That vertical definition is what makes an open patio start to feel like a room you actually want to be in rather than a surface you step out onto.

We install cedar, vinyl, and aluminum pergolas — attached directly to your home or freestanding in the yard — and coordinate structural footings, electrical conduit for lighting, and ceiling fan blocking with the rest of the project from the start. Nothing cut in after the fact, nothing retrofitted.

Attached Pergolas

Anchored to your home's exterior — creating a covered transition between inside and outside.

Freestanding Pergolas

Four-post structures over a patio, dining area, or spa space — a destination within the yard.

Pavilions

A permanent, fully covered structure that works in any weather — not just clear afternoons.

Louvered Systems

Adjustable louver panels that let you control light, airflow, and shade throughout the day.

Outdoor Lighting

Lighting determines whether your outdoor space gets used after 7pm or sits dark from sundown until you go to bed. A well-designed lighting system adds two to three usable hours to every evening you spend outside. It also changes how your property reads from the street — the difference between a yard that looks maintained and one that looks considered.

We design outdoor lighting as part of the overall project, not as an add-on once the patio is done. Conduit runs, junction points, and transformer placement all get coordinated with the patio layout and pergola structure before anything is set. That planning is what separates a lighting system that looks intentional from one that looks installed around someone else's work.

Path & Step Lighting

Low-voltage path lights and step risers that guide movement safely — and read as design decisions, not code minimums.

Uplighting & Accents

Tree and architectural uplighting that adds depth after dark and gives your property curb appeal at night.

String & Bistro Lighting

Pergola-mounted bistro and string lighting — the finishing layer that makes a space feel like a room after dark.

Smart Controls

Timer and app-based controls that automate your lighting schedule without you having to think about it.

🏡

Existing Homeowners

Transforming an underused backyard into an outdoor environment your family actually wants to spend time in. Full design and build from scratch.

🏗️

New Construction

Outdoor living packages coordinated alongside new builds — we work directly with builders and general contractors from the start so nothing gets retrofitted.

🔄

Renovation & Upgrade

Replacing an aging patio, adding a kitchen or pergola to an existing space, or tying together elements that were built separately over time.

🏘️

HOA Communities

Outdoor living within HOA guidelines — we handle material approvals, structure permits, and compliance documentation from the start so there are no surprises.

How We Work With Homeowners

Direct Owner Contact

You reach Alex Romo directly — not a dispatcher or call center. A real decision-maker who knows your project from day one and stays on it through completion.

Written Proposal

Detailed scope, schedule, and pricing in writing within 24 hours of the site visit. No surprises when the invoice arrives. No scope creep you didn't approve.

No Subcontractors

Every person on your property is our licensed employee. One crew, one contract, one point of accountability — not a patchwork of subs you've never met.

We stand behind every outdoor living space we build. If something isn't right, we respond and make it right — no runaround, no arguments after the check clears.

Why Green & Clean

What Sets Us Apart in Greensboro

05

About Green and Clean Landscaping

Built in Greensboro Since 2012

Alex Romo started Green & Clean in 2012 with a premise that hasn't changed: do the work in-house, hold the licenses yourself, and be reachable when clients need you. Fourteen years later that's still how the company operates. Alex walks outdoor living projects personally, stays in contact through the build, and answers the phone when something comes up — not a coordinator, not a message service.

Holding all three active North Carolina contractor licenses — Landscape Contractor CL.1951, Irrigation Contractor C-906, and Commercial Pesticide Applicator 34802 — along with HUB Certification through the State of NC, Green & Clean operates at a licensing and accountability level that the majority of local outdoor living contractors don't reach.

Green & Clean Landscaping Inc. has been designing and building outdoor living spaces in Greensboro since 2012. Founded by Alex Romo, the company holds NC Landscape Contractor License CL.1951, is HUB Certified by the State of NC, and performs all work with its own licensed crew — no subcontractors. Services include patio installation, outdoor kitchens, fire pits, pergolas, seating walls, and outdoor lighting. Call 1-888-611-9186 to schedule a free on-site consultation.
Green & Clean builds complete outdoor living environments in Greensboro NC — patios in paver, flagstone, travertine, and natural stone; outdoor kitchens and grill stations; fire pits and outdoor fireplaces; pergolas and shade structures; low-voltage outdoor lighting; and seating walls. Every project is designed and built by our own in-house licensed crew from start to finish.
Costs vary considerably based on scope — a standalone patio is priced very differently from a complete outdoor environment with a kitchen, fire feature, pergola, and lighting. Rather than publish ranges that rarely apply to a specific site, we offer a no-cost on-site consultation, assess your space, and produce a detailed written proposal within 24 hours. Call 1-888-611-9186 or submit our contact form to schedule.
Yes — and it's the most efficient and cohesive way to get it done. When every element is designed and built by one crew under one contract, the layout, utility runs, structural footings, and drainage all work together from the start. The alternative — building elements separately over time with different contractors — almost always costs more in the end and shows in the finished result. We coordinate full-scope outdoor living projects regularly and genuinely prefer them to piecemeal additions.
Yes. Green & Clean installs attached and freestanding pergolas throughout Greensboro and the Piedmont Triad — in cedar, vinyl, and aluminum, including louvered systems with adjustable panels. When a pergola is part of a larger project, we coordinate structural footings, electrical conduit, and ceiling fan blocking with the rest of the scope so nothing needs to be cut in or retrofitted after the patio is finished.
Yes. We hold NC Landscape Contractor License CL.1951, NC Irrigation Contractor License C-906, and NC Commercial Pesticide Applicator License 34802, along with full general liability and workers compensation insurance. License documentation is available on request. Before hiring any outdoor contractor in North Carolina, we recommend verifying their license through the NC Landscape Contractors Registration Board — it's a quick search and it matters.
Yes. While lighting performs best when it's integrated into a new patio or pergola project from the beginning, we also install low-voltage lighting systems on existing properties — path lights, uplighting, step lights, string and bistro lighting, and smart timer controls. Call 1-888-611-9186 to talk through what your property actually needs.
