Wood Outdoor Living Helps Families Enjoy Their Backyards
We’re proud to serve the entire Kootenai County area—including Coeur d’Alene, Post Falls, Hayden, Rathdrum, and beyond. At Wood Outdoor Living, we design and build custom outdoor spaces that work with the natural terrain and reflect your lifestyle—whether you're entertaining lakeside, relaxing in the mountains, or maximizing a sloped suburban yard.
OUR SERVICES
We build premium decks using TimberTech’s composite and PVC materials—built to thrive in the North Idaho climate. Our decks are designed with layout and flow in mind, connecting seamlessly to lawns, patios, or daylight basements. They're safe, splinter-free, and built to resist snow, UV, and moisture—perfect for homes across Kootenai County.
Our freeze-thaw resistant paver patios are ideal for entertaining and built to last. Whether you want a sleek design or rustic stone look, we create durable outdoor surfaces that stand up to Kootenai County’s changing seasons with minimal maintenance.
We install low-voltage LED systems that add safety, curb appeal, and after-dark usability. Our in-lite lighting solutions are app-controlled, allowing you to schedule or adjust your lights from your phone. We illuminate walkways, stairs, landscaping, and deck railings for beauty and security.
From Coeur d’Alene to the backwoods of Athol, an outdoor kitchen adds luxury and function. We install custom kitchen islands with premium grills, storage, lighting, and weather-resistant countertops—built to handle North Idaho's four seasons and bring your backyard gatherings to life.
Gas and wood-burning fire pits, fireplaces, and fire tables designed for comfort and code compliance. Whether it’s a cozy nook or a showpiece for your patio, our fire features are integrated into your outdoor living space with safety, function, and design in mind.
Full Backyard Design
We transform challenging terrain—slopes, poor drainage, tight spaces—into functional, beautiful outdoor living environments. Our design-build team handles everything from retaining walls to turf, drainage, planting beds, and multilevel spaces that suit Kootenai County's unique topography.

Benefits of Outdoor Living in Kootenai County
Spending more time outside isn’t just a luxury—it’s a lifestyle upgrade.

Whether you're grilling with friends or watching your kids play in the yard, outdoor living makes every moment more memorable.
Tips For Homeowners
With so many elevations, microclimates, and wooded lots, Kootenai County homes require custom design decisions. These expert tips will help you get the most out of your new deck, patio, or full backyard renovation.
In Kootenai County, prep begins with access—especially in rural areas or narrow properties. We assess the terrain, address any slope or grade issues, and plan materials staging to keep the build smooth and efficient. You don’t need to worry about anything—we handle the details from day one.
In city lots or older neighborhoods like Dalton Gardens, space is at a premium. We create multi-use areas using tiered patios, space-saving stairs, and custom layouts that make the most of your available square footage.
Snow comes fast in places like Hayden and Spirit Lake. Our low-maintenance decks are built for snow loads and drainage. Just use a plastic shovel and avoid harsh salts. In spring, a simple rinse keeps your space looking like new.
Between snow, sun, and seasonal shifts, your materials need to perform year-round. We recommend TimberTech PVC for its superior durability, resistance to mold and fading, and its Class A fire rating—great for homes near forested areas or rural lots.
Lighting extends your outdoor use well beyond daylight hours—and improves safety for families. We use in-lite’s sleek, app-controlled systems to enhance decks, patios, and landscaping. It’s a beautiful way to enjoy your space year-round.
