Outdoor Living in Burlingame

Decks, patios, outdoor kitchens, and pergolas that extend your living space outside.

Looking for outdoor living in Burlingame? ODL Construction is a licensed Bay Area general contractor serving Burlingame and the surrounding Peninsula — from Easton Addition, Burlingame Park, Burlingame Hills and beyond. Decks, patios, outdoor kitchens, and pergolas that extend your living space outside.

The Bay Area's climate is made for outdoor living, and a well-built outdoor space is one of the highest-enjoyment, strong-return investments a homeowner can make. Done right, it becomes a true extension of the house rather than a neglected backyard.

For Burlingame specifically, it comes down to local realities: Burlingame's period-home character and strict protected-tree ordinance mean exterior and addition work demands design sensitivity and careful site planning — not a teardown mindset. Burlingame applies design review and a strict protected-tree ordinance; additions and exterior changes require careful planning around mature trees and neighborhood character. We design and permit your outdoor living around exactly those conditions.
