What should Little Elm homeowners know before building a backyard?
Little Elm is nearly surrounded by Lewisville Lake and has one of the longest municipal shorelines on it; the town was tiny until the 2000s, so almost the entire housing stock is post-2000 subdivision construction on modest, closely spaced lots.
This is Cross Timbers ground — sandier loam sitting on clay. It digs more kindly than the black prairie further east, but the sand drains onto clay that does not, so grading and drainage get solved before a single stone is set.
We file the permit with the City of Little Elm and follow it through review, so the schedule doesn’t stall on paperwork.
Longhorn has built across Denton County and the wider Metroplex since 1984. We prepare the drawings an HOA typically asks for, and every project starts with a free design visit and a firm price.

A free design visit in Little Elm
A designer comes out to the house, measures, walks the access a crew would need, and talks through what you want the space to do. You leave with a firm price. On Eastern Cross Timbers ground, that is also when the grading, drainage and movement details get decided rather than improvised on site.

Drawings, permit and HOA

One crew, one schedule
The same team builds the whole job 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 with you, settle the punch list and leave one warranty on the work — and we are still Denton County-local if you need us later.
