Your backyard takes a beating. July afternoons hit hard. Sudden storms roll through. The clay soil shifts and cracks standard concrete like it’s nothing.
You need a backyard remodel that accounts for all of it. Shade where it matters. Materials that don’t buckle under pressure. Layouts that make sense when it’s 95 degrees and when you’re hosting in October.
Most backyard renovations look great in photos but fall apart in real conditions. We build for how you’ll actually use the space. Covered patios that extend your living area without the indoor remodel. Outdoor kitchens positioned to catch the breeze. Concrete work that’s anchored right so it doesn’t crack in two years.
The result is a backyard design that adds value to your home and gives you a place you actually want to be. Not just on special occasions. Every day.
We’ve been doing backyard makeovers in North Texas since the early 1990s. That’s 30+ years of learning what works in Lake Country’s climate and what doesn’t.
You’re working with a licensed, bonded, and insured team that knows the HOA requirements, the city permit process, and which materials hold up in Texas weather. We’ve seen the shortcuts other contractors take. We’ve fixed their mistakes. It costs three times as much to redo it later.
Our customers refer us to their friends because we show up when we say we will, we call every evening with updates, and we clean up daily. You’re not chasing us down. You’re not wondering what’s happening. You know exactly where your project stands.
You call or fill out the form. We schedule a time to see your space and talk through what you’re trying to accomplish. No pressure. No sales pitch. Just a conversation about what’s possible.
We measure everything and use digital design technology to show you exactly what your backyard will look like before we start. You see the layout, the materials, the finished result. If something doesn’t feel right, we adjust it then—not after we’ve poured concrete.
Once you approve the design, we give you a fixed-price estimate. No hidden fees. No surprise change orders unless you ask for something different. Then we handle the permits, the HOA approvals, the utility markings—all the bureaucracy that bogs down most projects.
Construction starts on schedule. Manny’s on-site regularly. You get daily updates. We finish the work, walk through it with you, and make sure you’re happy before we call it done. That’s it.
Ready to get started?
Your backyard remodel includes complete project management from start to finish. One point of contact. One team. One timeline you can count on.
We handle covered patios, outdoor kitchens, concrete work, pergolas, cedar fencing, and decorative solutions. Everything’s designed specifically for Lake Country conditions. That means shade structures positioned to block afternoon sun. Materials that handle temperature swings. Drainage that accounts for Texas storms.
In Lake Country, you’re looking at homes with real value—median prices over $511,000. Your backyard should reflect that. We’re building spaces that fit the neighborhood, add to your property value, and give you the outdoor living area that 75% of buyers actively look for.
Patios alone can deliver up to 95% ROI according to the National Association of REALTORS. You’re not just spending money. You’re making a smart investment in a home you plan to stay in—because moving costs more than it used to, and remodeling what you have makes more sense than starting over somewhere else.
Backyard remodeling costs in Lake Country typically range from $10,000 to over $75,000 depending on what you’re adding. A basic concrete patio runs lower. A full outdoor kitchen with a covered area, lighting, and custom features costs more.
The wide range comes down to size, materials, and complexity. A 20-foot by 12-foot concrete patio with a covered porch is different from a complete backyard makeover with multiple zones, built-in seating, and a full outdoor cooking setup.
We give you a fixed-price estimate upfront so you know exactly what you’re investing. No hidden fees. No surprises halfway through. You decide what fits your budget and what makes sense for how you’ll use the space.
Covered patios deliver the highest ROI—up to 95% according to national data. They extend your living space, protect you from weather, and appeal to buyers if you ever sell.
Outdoor kitchens and quality concrete work also rank high because they add functionality without requiring interior renovations. In Lake Country, where home values are strong and outdoor living is part of the culture, these features make your property more competitive.
The key is building something that works year-round, not just in perfect weather. Texas summers are brutal. If your patio has no shade, you won’t use it half the year. If your materials can’t handle the heat, they’ll crack or fade. We design for real conditions so your investment actually pays off in comfort and resale value.
Most backyard projects take two to four weeks depending on scope. A straightforward concrete patio and covered structure can be done in two weeks. A full backyard makeover with multiple features takes closer to a month.
Weather can add time—we’re not pouring concrete in the rain or working through storms. Permits and HOA approvals happen before we start, so they don’t delay construction once we break ground.
We give you a clear timeline upfront and stick to it. You get daily updates so you know where we are in the process. If something changes, you hear about it immediately, not three days later. Most delays happen because contractors don’t communicate. We call every evening. You’re never guessing.
Yes, most backyard renovations require permits, and if you’re in an HOA, you’ll need their approval too. Requirements vary depending on what you’re building and where your property sits.
Covered structures, concrete work, and anything that changes drainage usually need city permits. Your HOA may have rules about materials, colors, height restrictions, or how close structures can be to property lines.
We handle all of it. Permits, HOA submissions, utility markings—the entire approval process. You don’t have to figure out who to call or what forms to fill out. We know the local requirements and we make sure everything’s done right so your project doesn’t get stopped halfway through.
Concrete, cedar, and quality composite materials handle Texas conditions better than cheaper alternatives. Concrete needs to be installed correctly—anchored to the house and poured with Texas clay soil in mind. Standard slabs crack when the ground shifts.
Cedar fencing holds up to heat and occasional moisture better than pine. It weathers naturally and doesn’t need constant maintenance. For covered structures, we use materials rated for high heat and UV exposure so they don’t warp or fade after one summer.
The biggest mistake homeowners make is choosing materials based on price instead of performance. Cheap pavers shift. Low-grade lumber warps. Thin concrete cracks. You end up paying twice—once for the initial install and again to fix it. We use materials that last because fixing them later costs three times as much.
Yes. Most Lake Country homes have established landscaping, existing patios, or features you want to keep. We design around what’s already there and integrate new elements so everything flows together.
If your current concrete is cracked or your old patio doesn’t work anymore, we’ll tell you whether it makes sense to repair, remove, or build around it. Sometimes the existing structure can stay. Sometimes it’s better to start fresh.
We walk your property during the consultation and talk through what’s possible. You’ll see the design digitally before we start so you know exactly how the new work fits with what you’re keeping. No guessing. No hoping it turns out right. You approve everything before construction begins.
