What should Irving homeowners know before building a backyard?
From Las Colinas to the older grid south of it, Irving lots differ widely in size and setback. The design visit is what sorts out which of it actually fits.
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 Irving and follow it through review, so the schedule doesn’t stall on paperwork. Locally that is the Inspections Department. Irving supplies its own water from Lake Chapman rights plus treated water bought from Dallas Water Utilities.
Longhorn has built across Dallas County and the wider Metroplex since 1984, and every project starts with a free design visit and a firm price.

A free design visit in Irving
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 Irving (locally that is the Inspections Department) and follow it through review, along with any HOA submittal.

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 Dallas County-local if you need us later.
Local know-how
Homes and Yards in Irving
Irving’s farmland was turned into subdivisions from the 1950s on, and the city also includes Las Colinas, a planned community begun in the 1970s.
On older lots, big shade trees, narrow side gates and aging utility lines are common, so crew access and where the old lines run get checked at the first visit.
Irving lies between the Elm Fork and West Fork of the Trinity River. Near a creek or river it is worth checking the flood maps early, before a pool or slab is placed.

Irving backyard questions
The Inspections Department reviews residential projects in Irving. Pools and structures attached to the house, such as patio covers, sunrooms and enclosures, almost always need a permit. Longhorn files it and follows it through inspection.
Irving sits on Blackland Prairie ground in Dallas 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.
Irving supplies its own water from Lake Chapman rights plus treated water bought from Dallas Water Utilities. Watering schedules can tighten in a drought, so we plan the planting and irrigation around the current rules and choose heat-tolerant plants that can establish on them.
