Four problems that land on you when the outdoor is fragmented.
"Nobody designed the outdoor — I just needed someone to pull it together."
The design gap
No one owns the gap between your architect's drawings and what the outdoor actually becomes. Undefined scope resolved during construction costs 3–5x what it would have cost during design.
"I had seven people on that job and none of them talked to each other."
Seven subs. Zero shared scope.
Hardscape + kitchen + pool + irrigation + lighting + planting + drainage = seven scheduling conversations, seven scope documents, seven points where inter-trade blame surfaces at closeout.
"That permit's not pulled and the title company is asking questions."
Outdoor permits that block closings
Unpermitted outdoor kitchens, structures, and pools create title defects that surface at closing. Florida's 2025 warranty statute (§553.837) puts outdoor sub work on your warranty obligation if the indemnity chain isn't clean.
"My client's moving in in 30 days and the outdoor is still a mess."
Outdoor scope: managed last, judged first
Every emotional impression at the final walkthrough comes from the outdoor. When it looks assembled rather than designed, buyers remember the builder's name — not the outdoor sub's. And when your client has questions about why the outdoor isn't done, those calls come to you.
One licensed GC takes the full outdoor scope off your plate.
We own the design gap
Full permit-ready design across every outdoor system before anything goes in — structure, hardscape, water, outdoor living, landscape, and systems (irrigation, lighting, drainage) — designed as one environment. Scope is locked before your first trade sets foot on site.
One contract replaces seven
PLD holds the full outdoor contract — structure (pergolas, pavilions), hardscape, water (pool, water features), outdoor living (kitchen, fire, wellness), landscape (planting, turf), and systems (irrigation, lighting, drainage). Functionality and finishes both in scope. Dock coordinated through PLD. One call. One schedule. One point of accountability.
We pull all permits — nothing blocks your closing
CGC1539932. All outdoor permits in Lee and Collier County. HOA Architectural Review Board submissions handled in the correct sequence for each Naples community. Nothing open, nothing expired, nothing that touches your title.
Thomas on site — and on the phone with your client
The owner, not a project manager. Thomas is on every job personally. When there's a question, you call Thomas. When there's a problem, Thomas calls you first. And when your client wants to talk through the outdoor scope, Thomas handles it — directly. That conversation doesn't land on you.
