Outdoor Carpentry: Decks, Arbors, Trellises & Fences
Wood structures add shade, privacy, height and warmth to a landscape. Del Conte’s M&H Landscape Construction provides outdoor carpentry for homes across San Mateo County and the Peninsula, including decks, arbors, trellises, pergolas, gates and fences designed as part of the overall landscape.

Designed with the garden
Carpentry works best when it is planned with the planting and hardscape around it. An arbor frames a path, a pergola shades a dining area, a trellis supports climbing plants that soften a wall. We design these elements together so they feel intentional.
Built for Peninsula weather
We use durable, weather-appropriate materials and proper footings and hardware so decks, fences and structures hold up to sun, rain and time.
What to Expect When You Work With Us
- Consultation: we walk the property with you, listen to your goals and assess slopes, drainage, sun and existing trees.
- Design: our designer develops a plan for layout, hardscape, planting, irrigation, drainage and lighting.
- Construction: our in-house crew builds the project, and your designer stays involved through completion.
- Ongoing care: our residential maintenance program keeps the landscape performing, with irrigation and lighting audits three times a year.
Because we handle design and construction in-house, outdoor carpentry can be planned together with the rest of your landscape, including grading, drainage, irrigation and lighting, so everything is installed once and installed correctly. Since 1972, Del Conte’s M&H has focused on high-end residential work, and our long-time managers bring decades of experience to every project.
