We build custom patio covers (gable, lean-to, polycarbonate, and free-standing designs) and stamped or broom-finish concrete for patios, driveways, and walkways — all engineered for North Texas weather and backed by a 2-year workmanship warranty.
Most projects begin 2-3 weeks after contract signing, which covers permit approval and material procurement. Construction itself takes 3-7 days for most patio covers and 1-2 weeks for larger outdoor living projects. We serve Plano year-round — fall and winter often have the shortest wait times.
