Our Process
We visit your property in Garland, Dallas, Highland Park, Rockwall, Forney, Wylie, Wylie, Frisco, Allen, Plano, McKinney, Celina, Prosper or one of our other surrounding cities:
a.) It’s extremely important that we clearly understand your VISION and how you use outdoor space.
b.) We scan your yard conditions and ideal space layout.
c.) We inspect for potential obstructions (overhangs, roof gutters, tree limbs), possible underground utility lines.
d.) We assess sun/shade exposure & drainage to secure foundational safety. It’s important that we have proper water diversion. As settled water or pulling can create foundation problems/issues.
e.) We measure the existing patio slab or a non-existent patio slab to determine the volume of concrete to complete the pour.
f.) We determine the best access path for materials staging and debris removal.
g.) We plan the staging area to ensure efficient installation with minimal disruption. In this phase we take very detailed notes and measurements for our design phase to be 100% accurate.
- Roof types: metal, shingle, polycarbonate, or aluminum
- Framing systems: cedar beams, pressure-treated lumber, Hardie board, Smart board, or powder-coated aluminum
- Integrated features: lighting, ceiling fans, drop-down screens, GFCI outlets, dimmer switches, and hardwired infrared heaters
