Expert Outdoor Living Space Design in Riverside, CA

Outdoor living space design in Riverside starts with understanding how you actually want to use your backyard. JH Construction works with homeowners to plan covered patio areas, shade structures, and functional outdoor layouts that hold up to Riverside's climate and fit the way your household lives. Riverside's long outdoor season — with warm weather stretching from spring through late fall — means a well-designed outdoor space gets real use. We look at sun angles, wind exposure, existing slab and yard dimensions, and your home's exterior before recommending a layout. Then we build it. Our design process is practical, not theoretical. We are not an interior design firm. We are a construction team that helps you plan and build a covered outdoor space that functions well and lasts. If you want a covered patio, a shade structure, or a combination of both, JH Construction can help you figure out what works for your Riverside property and get it built.

We assess your yard, discuss how you want to use the space, and plan a covered patio or shade structure layout that fits your property. Then we build it. The design process is practical and tied directly to construction.

Riverside's long warm season and intense UV exposure mean shade and overhead coverage are the most important design factors. We position structures to block the worst afternoon sun and account for seasonal wind patterns.

Jeff and his team installed a large Patio Cover at our house and we couldn’t be happier with it. When I reached out for a quote, Jeff showed up personally (which I loved) and made me feel confident in his skillset and ability to get the job done. We opted for all the bells and whistles with GFI switches, ceiling fans, post lights and recessed lighting. Jeffs team did a great job with the installation and are highly professional. Jeff was nice enough to come out to get everything just right after the installation multiple times. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone who is looking for a patio cover or rain gutters in the Southern California area. 5 stars!

After having our wood patio for 30 years, and having to deal with painting it every few years, and fixing it every now and then, it was time to get rid of it, and have a new Patio for our backyard. My wife and I decided for the new Alum wood patios, this way we don't have to deal with rotted wood any longer. Since I had luck with contactors that did home service for us thru GOOGLE search, I decided to research for a Patio contractor using GOOGLE. I picked up 4 contractors for an estimate, all 4 contractors had 5 stars reviews on GOOGLE. I finally decided to have Jeff with J H Construction to do the work. Even though Jeff's estimate was few hundred dollars more than the other 3 contactors, but I felt that he is the person I can trust. The reasons I trusted Jeff with the job are: 1- Professional and Knowledge: Jeff took the measurement, outlined exactly how the Patio look will be, showed us the options available, answered all my wife questions, and all my questions, and I sensed in him that he will not do shortcuts like the other contactors wanted to do. One contactor wanted to attach the patio to the Eave wood instead of the wall stucco, because it is easier to do that, not with Jeff, he explained that the Patio should be attached to the stucco of the house, more work, but it is the correct way. 2-Honesty: I sensed honesty in Jeff, he did not even take a penny until the job was completed. On the day of Installation Jeff dispatched his crew, the foremen Justin, the Electrician Sam, and the helper Ken. They came early in the morning worked till 6PM, and the next day Sam came to do the final touch up that took only about 1 hour. 3-Integrity: Jeff gave me 10 years part and Labor warranty, the other contactors were talking 1 year warranty, even one of the contractors want to sell us 5 years warranty for an extra $1000, not with Jeff, there was no extra fee for the 10 years parts/labor warranty. 4-Willigness to work with our request: We wanted our Patio little different, part Lattice and part solid roof, Jeff was willing to do that, other contractors refused. My wife and I are very happy with the work that J H Construction did, I am glad I found that company on GOOGLE search. Thanks GOOGLE!

Jeff was awesome! Very attentive to what we wanted and knowledgeable to give suggestions. The installation crew was also clean and respectful. I feel like they treated my home like their own. Would highly recommend and definitely would use again.
