Before you build in McCaulley
McCaulley is on Farm Road 57 fourteen miles northeast of Roby in eastern Fisher County. A post office called Taopi had operated at the site since 1890, and the town was established in 1893.
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 McCaulley 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.

Homes and Yards in McCaulley
The town was named for an early settler, McCaulley, and pioneers included Dan and Frank Maberry. The Kansas City, Mexico and Orient Railway reached McCaulley in 1906.
Out on the open plains, a patio cover with braced posts and a low-slope metal roof stands up to strong wind and gives a farm home dependable shade.
Fisher County covers 897 square miles of grassy, rolling prairies from 1,800 to 2,400 feet. Its soils are red to brown with loamy surface layers, and the growing season averages 222 days.
After the railroad came in 1906, McCaulley prospered for a few years as the leading town in Fisher County. Many residents later moved to Hamlin, and several fires before 1920 damaged the business section, which was not rebuilt. In 1948 McCaulley had a post office, a school, three churches, and ten businesses, and from 1980 through 2000 the population was ninety-six.
NOAA’s Storm Events Database lists 36 hail reports in Fisher County from 2016 to 2025, 34 of them an inch across or larger, with stones up to 3 inches. The same records show 30 damaging thunderstorm wind reports, with gusts up to about 100 mph, and 5 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 McCaulley, TX
How is a pool built in McCaulley?
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 McCaulley the permit goes through the city or county office that covers McCaulley, and Longhorn files it and follows it through inspection. More on pools.
What does a patio cover need in McCaulley?
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 McCaulley the permit goes through the city or county office that covers McCaulley, and Longhorn files it and follows it through inspection. More on patio covers.
How is a pergola built to last in McCaulley?
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 McCaulley?
A sunroom or screened enclosure in McCaulley is attached to the house, so it is permitted through the city or county office that covers McCaulley 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.

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 McCaulley and handles the inspections, so the schedule does not stall on paperwork.
McCaulley sits on Rolling Plains clay ground in Fisher 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.
