Custom Outdoor Living Spaces in Thibodaux, LA
Your Backyard, Reimagined
The Pool Is the Centerpiece — the Outdoor Living Space Is Where Life Happens
In South Louisiana, the backyard isn't just outdoor space — it's where you host crawfish boils, watch LSU games, celebrate birthdays, and spend lazy Sunday afternoons. A great pool surrounded by a great outdoor living space becomes the place everyone wants to be.
Acadia Pools designs and builds complete outdoor environments that flow naturally from pool to patio to living space. When one company handles everything, the design is cohesive, the timeline is coordinated, and you end up with a backyard that looks intentional — because it was.
From a simple paver patio to a full outdoor kitchen and covered entertainment area, we build spaces that are as functional as they are beautiful — and built to handle Thibodaux weather for decades to come.

The Whole Picture
Why Coordinate Your Pool & Outdoor Living with One Team
When the same team handles your pool and your outdoor living space, the result looks planned — because it was. Coping transitions seamlessly into the patio deck. The pergola aligns with the pool axis. The outdoor kitchen is positioned where the sight lines make sense. These details don't happen by accident.
Coordinating everything with Acadia Pools also means one contract, one timeline, and one point of contact — Matt. No waiting on two different contractors to coordinate schedules or blaming each other when the seam doesn't line up.
The backyard you always wanted is closer than you think. Let's build it.
Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions About Outdoor Living in Thibodaux
Does Acadia Pools handle outdoor living even without a pool project?
We do most of our outdoor living work in conjunction with a pool build or renovation, since designing both together creates the best-looking result. However, we evaluate standalone outdoor living projects on a case-by-case basis. Call Matt and tell him what you have in mind.
What materials do you use for patios and decking in Thibodaux?
We work with concrete, pavers, travertine, and natural stone depending on your aesthetic goals and budget. For the South Louisiana climate, we recommend materials that handle heat, humidity, and the occasional freeze well — travertine and concrete pavers are consistently popular for that reason.
Can you build a covered outdoor kitchen that handles Louisiana weather?
Absolutely. Outdoor kitchens in South Louisiana need to handle intense sun, humidity, and heavy rain. We spec weather-resistant materials — stainless steel appliances, waterproof cabinetry, and properly pitched covered structures that keep everything protected.
How long does it take to build an outdoor living space?
When paired with a pool project, the outdoor living work is sequenced into the overall build timeline. Standalone projects vary — a concrete patio with a pergola might take 2–3 weeks, while a full outdoor kitchen and covered structure could take 4–6 weeks depending on materials and permit requirements.
Do outdoor living additions require permits in Lafourche Parish?
Covered structures like pergolas and shade structures typically require permits in Lafourche Parish. Outdoor kitchens with gas lines also require permits. We handle all permitting as part of the project — you don't need to navigate that process yourself.
