What should Forney homeowners know before building a backyard?
Forney lies on US 80 east of Mesquite and was designated the Antique Capital of Texas by the Texas Legislature in 1984, reflecting a small historic core surrounded by large post-2000 subdivisions such as Devonshire and Gateway. The north side of the city runs toward the East Fork of the Trinity and Lake Ray Hubbard, and the terrain is nearly flat farm prairie.
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 of Forney and follow it through review, so the schedule doesn’t stall on paperwork.
Longhorn has built across Kaufman County and the wider Metroplex since 1984, and every project starts with a free design visit and a firm price.

How a Backyard Project Runs in Forney
- 1
A free design visit in Forney
A designer comes out to the house, measures the space a backyard project has to fit, walks the access a crew would need, and talks through what you want it to do. You leave with a firm price. On Blackland Prairie ground, that is also when the grading, drainage and movement details get decided rather than improvised on site.

Drawings, permit and HOA
We file the permit with the City of Forney and follow it through review, so the schedule does not stall on paperwork. Where an HOA wants a submittal, we prepare the drawings it asks for.
- 3
One crew, one schedule
The same team builds the whole backyard project in order, so the slab, the structure, the electrical and the finish work are not three different companies working around each other.

Walkthrough and warranty
We walk the finished backyard project with you, settle the punch list and leave one warranty on the work, and we are still Kaufman County-local if you need us later.
Homes and Yards in Forney
Forney began as a farm and residential town and has grown quickly since 1990 as the Dallas area expanded east.
Newer subdivisions usually come with an HOA review and a small builder’s slab, so it pays to plan the full backyard together and take one complete set of drawings to the HOA.
Forney sits on blackland prairie along Buffalo and Mustang creeks, about four miles from Lake Ray Hubbard. Near a creek or river it is worth checking the flood maps early, before a pool or slab is placed.
