Patios That Are Built to Last

A patio gives you a strong foundation for outdoor living—literally. Whether you want a quiet space to sit or an area for dining and entertaining, our patio builders help you choose the right material and layout.

We work with concrete, pavers, and composite decking depending on your budget, style, and how you plan to use the space. With our knowledge of local weather and grading challenges, you’ll get a patio that looks great and stays solid through all seasons.

Pergola Installation That Adds Style and Function

Pergolas are a simple way to create structure and shade without enclosing your yard. We install pergolas in all sizes and materials to fit your layout and give your space some definition.

Whether it’s for covering a dining area, outlining a seating zone, or simply adding architectural interest, pergolas are one of the most versatile additions we offer. Our team ensures they’re built to handle Vancouver and Langley’s weather and match the look of your home.

Outdoor Living Fireplaces: Warmth With Purpose

A built-in fireplace can transform your backyard into a space that’s usable year-round. Whether you’re winding down after a long day or gathering with friends, it becomes the natural heart of your outdoor space.

Markley Construction can help you select safe, durable materials and make sure everything—from placement to ventilation—is done the right way.

Does Outdoor Living Renovation Add Value to your Space?

How to Improve Your Outdoor Living Space?

Start by thinking about what you need most: seating, shade, lighting, or warmth. Even small upgrades like a pergola, outdoor lighting, or a fire feature can make the space feel more usable and comfortable.

Can You Install a Patio?

Yes. As the most trusted patio builders in Langley and Vancouver, we can help you choose between concrete, pavers, or composite decking based on your style and budget. A properly installed patio offers a solid foundation for outdoor dining, lounging, or entertaining.

What Is the Difference Between a Patio and a Pergola?

Thomas came into where I work to order some sandwiches, saw us struggling with the door and offered to fix it right there on the spot! No questions asked, no payment asked either! Great service! I'd be lying if I said we didn't all crowd the door admiring his work after he left. Thanks so much Thomas! We all greatly appreciate it!

We wanted to replace contractor grade laminate flooring in our entryway and bathroom. Thomas installed the vinyl flooring we selected and replaced baseboards and door trim. We are thrilled with his work and how fantastic our floor and bathroom turned out. First rate work. Outstanding!

Joe Brewer

I needed someone I could trust: someone to replace an existing, poorly-made, deck and gazebo in the front yard of my townhouse. Thomas was that someone. My mind was immediately put at ease due to his obvious knowledge and expertise. His client liaison is superb, his accounting is transparent and the quality of his work is excellent. Markley Construction delivers on its promises.

Thomas and his crew were crucial in the completion of the many renovations that I needed done around the house. Thomas brings a wealth of experience and creativity from his time working in the film industry building movie sets. His strong work ethic and time management skills make him a great choice when selecting a contractor.

Thomas, of Markley Construction, was great to work with. He finished my job on time and on budget and the work was better than expected. He kept me up to date and went the extra mile by working on things that came up during the renovation. I am very happy with his work and would highly recommend him.

Erica Otto

Thomas managed and completed a full renovation to our townhouse working with us on budget, helping us with every aspect of the decisions, and working to a very tight timeline. He made the whole process painless throughout giving us invaluable advice or recommendations along the way (without ever being pushy). With his guidance the whole thing moved along quickly and seamlessly. He even worked to our very tight timeline. We couldn't be happier with the end product and wouldn't hesitate to use him again on any project, big or small.

Carla Dickof

We are SOO happy with the work that Markley Construction did for our warehouse! We needed a few jobs done: custom change rooms, swinging doors for our cash desk and encasing to cover up hideous exposed a/c piping that another company had installed. All 3 jobs were done to PERFECTION! We couldn't be more thrilled with the quality of everything they did for us. 5+ stars for Markley Construction. We will definitely be using them again in the future!!
