Picture stepping out your back door into a space that actually works for Texas living. No more avoiding your backyard during those brutal summer months or wishing you had somewhere decent to entertain.
Your new outdoor space handles the Texas heat with smart shade solutions and proper airflow. It gives you room to host without cramming everyone onto a tiny concrete slab. And it connects seamlessly with your indoor living areas so the whole space flows naturally.
The best part? You’re not just spending money – you’re investing in something that pays back. Quality outdoor living spaces in the DFW area typically recover 95% of their cost while making your home the place everyone wants to gather.
We’ve been turning Tarrant County backyards into outdoor sanctuaries since the 1990s. We know this market, these homes, and exactly what works in North Texas weather.
Every person on your project carries proper licensing and insurance for their specific trade. You get one point of contact who coordinates everything, so you’re not juggling multiple contractors or wondering who’s responsible when something needs attention.
We’ve watched Ivy Glen grow and change over the decades. We understand the neighborhood character, local building requirements, and what homeowners here actually want from their outdoor spaces.
We start with a consultation at your home where you show us your space and tell us how you want to use it. No high-pressure sales tactics – just honest conversation about what’s possible and what makes sense for your budget.
Next comes digital design visualization so you can see exactly what your finished backyard will look like before we break ground. We handle all permits and inspections because local building codes shouldn’t be your headache.
Construction happens on a clear timeline with daily progress updates. We clean up each day because you’re still living in your home. When we’re done, you get a backyard that works exactly like you envisioned – maybe even better.

Your backyard remodel includes everything needed to create a functional outdoor living space. Concrete patios and decorative surfaces that handle Texas weather. Pergolas and shade structures that actually provide relief from summer heat.
Outdoor kitchens designed for the Texas BBQ lifestyle – not just a grill stuck in the corner, but proper prep space, storage, and seating that makes sense. Fire features for those perfect Texas evenings when you want to stay outside just a little longer.
In Ivy Glen, we see a lot of homes with good bones but outdoor spaces that never reached their potential. Maybe it’s a small concrete pad that limits entertaining, or a backyard that becomes unusable half the year. We specialize in taking these underused spaces and turning them into the reason people love coming to your home.
Backyard remodeling costs in Ivy Glen typically range from $15,000 for basic patio extensions to $50,000+ for complete outdoor living transformations with kitchens and multiple features. The investment depends on your space size, materials chosen, and scope of work.
We provide fixed-price estimates with no hidden fees, so you know exactly what you’re investing upfront. Most homeowners in the DFW area recover about 95% of their outdoor living investment when they sell, making it one of the smarter home improvements you can make.
The key is designing something that fits your actual lifestyle and budget rather than trying to build everything at once. We can often phase projects to spread costs over time while still creating a cohesive final result.
Most backyard remodeling projects in Ivy Glen require permits, especially for permanent structures like covered patios, outdoor kitchens, or anything involving electrical and plumbing work. The specific permits depend on your project scope and local building requirements.
We handle all permit applications and inspections as part of our service because navigating city requirements shouldn’t be your responsibility. Our team knows Tarrant County building codes and has established relationships with local inspectors.
This permit handling is included in your project cost – no separate fees or surprise charges. We coordinate all inspections and make sure everything meets code before we consider the job complete. You get peace of mind knowing your investment is properly documented and compliant.
Most backyard remodeling projects in Ivy Glen take 2-4 weeks from start to finish, depending on scope and weather conditions. Simple patio extensions might be done in a week, while complete outdoor living spaces with kitchens and multiple features typically need 3-4 weeks.
We provide a detailed timeline upfront and keep you updated on progress throughout the project. Texas weather can occasionally cause delays, but we build realistic schedules and communicate any changes immediately.
The timeline includes all phases: site preparation, any necessary utility work, concrete or hardscaping installation, structure building, and final details. We coordinate everything so you’re not dealing with gaps between different trades or wondering when the next phase starts.
Absolutely – most Ivy Glen homes have established landscaping and existing features that need to be preserved or worked around. We specialize in integrating new outdoor living spaces with what you already have rather than starting from scratch.
Our design process includes a thorough site evaluation to identify which existing elements to keep, which to relocate, and how to make everything work together cohesively. This might mean designing around mature trees, working with existing pool equipment locations, or preserving garden areas you love.
We coordinate with landscaping professionals when needed and can often enhance existing features rather than replacing them. The goal is creating a unified outdoor space that feels like it was always meant to be there, not an obvious addition tacked onto your backyard.
We provide complete design-build services, which means you work with one team from initial concept through final construction. This eliminates the coordination headaches that come from hiring separate designers and contractors.
Our design process includes digital visualization so you can see exactly how your finished backyard will look before construction begins. We use state-of-the-art technology to create realistic renderings that show materials, colors, and spatial relationships.
This integrated approach means better communication, fewer change orders, and a smoother overall experience. When the designer and builder are the same team, there’s no finger-pointing if something doesn’t match expectations – we’re responsible for both the vision and the execution.
Three decades of experience in Tarrant County means we understand local building requirements, weather challenges, and what actually works in North Texas backyards. We’re not learning on your project – we’re applying proven solutions.
You get complete project management with one point of contact who coordinates all trades, handles permits, and keeps you informed throughout the process. No juggling multiple contractors or wondering who’s responsible when questions arise.
Our fixed-price estimates eliminate budget surprises, and our digital design technology lets you see your finished space before construction starts. We handle everything from initial design through final cleanup, so you can focus on planning how you’ll use your new outdoor living space rather than managing construction details.
