Before you build in Aspermont
Aspermont, the seat of Stonewall County, is at the junction of U.S. highways 83 and 380, fifty-nine miles north of Abilene in the center of the county. Earlier residents called the place Sunflower Flat.
That ground decides how a slab, a pool shell or a footing has to be built here. Here is what it does to a patio.
We file the permit with the city or county office that covers Aspermont and follow it through review, so the schedule doesn’t stall on paperwork.
Longhorn has been building since 1984, and every project starts with a free design visit and a firm price.

A.L. Rhomberg platted the townsite in 1889, provided the land, and gave it a Latin name meaning rough mountain. A post office opened that same year, and the town replaced Rayner as county seat in 1898.
Summer heat in Aspermont makes a solid-roof patio cover more useful than open lattice, and placing it on the east side of the house keeps evening sun off the seating.
Stonewall County ranges from rolling plains to mountainous terrain, with elevations from 1,500 to 2,400 feet at Double Mountain. Average precipitation is 22.36 inches, and the growing season lasts 220 days.
Water comes from the City of Aspermont, which treats surface water.
Rayner contested the election, and courthouse construction waited until 1900. Aspermont incorporated in 1909 with 700 residents, the year the Stamford and Northwestern Railway was extended from Stamford, and work on a lake and water supply began in 1914. The population fell to 436 in 1920 but rose to 769 by 1930 and to 1,041 by 1940 after oil was discovered.
The local economy relies on ranching and oil. A hospital was built in 1965, and the town had 1,198 residents and fifty businesses in 1970. The population reached 1,357 in 1980, then was 1,214 in 1990 and 1,021 in 2000. County facilities include a library, a swimming pool, and a livestock show barn.
NOAA’s Storm Events Database lists 18 hail reports in Stonewall County from 2016 to 2025, 17 of them an inch across or larger, with stones up to 4 inches. 8 of those reports were logged at Aspermont itself, the largest 2.75 inches. The same records show 12 damaging thunderstorm wind reports, with gusts up to about 109 mph, and 3 tornadoes. That is why a patio cover’s roof panels, fasteners and posts here are chosen for hail and wind, not only for shade.
What each outdoor project needs in Aspermont, TX
How is a pool built in Aspermont?
Rolling Plains clay swells when it is wet and shrinks when it dries, and a pool shell is a rigid object sitting in it. The shell, its bond beam and the deck are designed for that movement, and the deck is graded so rain runs away from the pool and the house. In Aspermont the permit goes through the city or county office that covers Aspermont, and Longhorn files it and follows it through inspection. More on pools.
What does a patio cover need in Aspermont?
On Rolling Plains clay a patio cover’s footings carry the whole structure, and the top of the clay is the part that moves most. Footings are taken below that movement and the slab is graded away from the house, so the roofline stays true as the ground wets and dries. In Aspermont the permit goes through the city or county office that covers Aspermont, and Longhorn files it and follows it through inspection. More on patio covers.
How is a pergola built to last in Aspermont?
A pergola on Rolling Plains clay stays square only if its posts sit below the ground that moves. The footings go deeper than the seasonal swell and shrink, and the grade around each post sheds water instead of holding it. More on pergolas.
Can a sunroom or screened enclosure be added in Aspermont?
A sunroom or screened enclosure in Aspermont is attached to the house, so it is permitted through the city or county office that covers Aspermont and sits on footings designed for the ground under it. We match the roofline and the exterior to the house so it reads as part of it. More on sunrooms and patio enclosures.
Aspermont outdoor living questions
Almost always, for pools and for anything attached to the house, including patio covers, sunrooms and enclosures. Longhorn files the permit with the city or county office that covers Aspermont and handles the inspections, so the schedule does not stall on paperwork.
Aspermont sits on Rolling Plains clay ground in Stonewall County. The ground decides how a slab, a pool shell or a footing has to be built, so we plan the drainage and the footings for it at the first visit rather than after something moves.
