We create custom patios, kitchens, pools, and more for Chapel Hill homeowners who want a one-of-a-kind outdoor space.
Chapel Hill has a character all its own. From established neighborhoods with mature trees to custom homes that call for better outdoor function, this is a place where thoughtful design matters. Many homeowners here want more than a basic backyard. They want a space that feels natural, fits the home, and makes it easier to relax, host friends, and enjoy more time outside.
That is exactly where we come in. At Earth Artisans, we design and build high-end outdoor living spaces for Chapel Hill homeowners who want a custom result and a smooth process. We focus on larger projects, not routine yard work or maintenance. Our job is to take your ideas and turn them into a finished space that looks beautiful, works well, and feels like it belongs on your property.
Every property in Chapel Hill is different. Some need better flow from the house to the backyard. Some need grading and structural elements before the real transformation can begin. Others are ready for a full outdoor living upgrade with gathering spaces, cooking areas, shade, fire, and water features. We guide you through planning, design, materials, and construction so the final result feels cohesive from day one.
We are a hands-on design-build company with a skilled team and a clear focus. Since starting Earth Artisans in 2023, we have brought together 40 years of combined experience to serve clients who want a higher level of outdoor craftsmanship. We are licensed and insured, we offer free estimates, and we do not stop until the client is satisfied.
Clients also appreciate that we manage the full process. Instead of juggling multiple contractors, you work with one team that handles design, construction, materials, and project coordination. That means fewer surprises, better communication, and a finished space that feels well planned and professionally built.
Our work is shaped by natural materials and strong construction. We use elements like stone, metal, fire, and water to create outdoor spaces that feel grounded and distinctive. Whether you are planning a custom patio, a covered gathering area, an outdoor kitchen, a poolside retreat, or a full property transformation, we build with long-term use in mind.
A well-designed outdoor living space can do more than improve curb appeal. It can expand the way you use your home, make entertaining easier, and add real value to the property. In a place like Chapel Hill, where homeowners care about quality and character, that investment should be done the right way.
We work with homeowners across Chapel Hill, including areas near Southern Village, Meadowmont, Chatham Park, Governors Club, Briar Chapel, and surrounding communities. If you are in the Chapel Hill area and looking for a custom outdoor living builder for a larger, high-end project, we would love to talk.

I don't even know of where to begin. Earth Artisans did an incredible job on my project. The professionalism and customer service was above and beyond. Working with Preston Whitfield was a great experience, He was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I would refer anyone to this company.
We absolutely love love our patio! It could not have turned out any better. Working with Preston and his team was a joy. They were so professional, creative and fun to work with. Drainage was very important to my husband and they nailed it. They pay close attention to even the smallest detail. We highly recommend them..You will not go wrong!
