Pools & Spas in Millersview
Gunite pools and spas planned with the deck, shade and kitchen.
Outdoor living is the covered patio, pool, kitchen, stone and lighting that make a backyard part of the home. Longhorn designs and builds them together for Millersview homeowners in Concho County, with one family-owned team.

Millersview is at the junction of Farm roads 765 and 2134, near the West Fork of Mustang Creek and twelve miles southeast of Paint Rock in Concho County. The first area school stood on Mustang Creek.
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 Millersview 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.
Gunite pools and spas planned with the deck, shade and kitchen.
Stone islands, built-in grills, fridges and a real vent hood, under cover.
Solid-roof shade over the patio. It’s the simplest way to use it year-round.
Fixed or louvered, built to your slab, the yard’s centerpiece.
Glass walls under a solid roof. Real square footage, light all day.
Screened rooms: the breeze and the view, none of the mosquitoes.
Travertine, pavers, seat walls and fire pits, with drainage solved first.
Water-wise planting, irrigation and lighting for North Texas.
Edward D. Miller and Henry Barr founded the settlement, which was named for Miller. A post office opened in 1903 and was still operating in the early 1990s.
Thin, stony plateau ground can make digging hard, so a patio cover here may rest on drilled rock anchors or wide surface footings under each post.
Southern Concho County lies on the Edwards Plateau, flat land broken by deep creekbeds, where thin and stony soil supports oak, juniper, and mesquite. Rainfall averages twenty-three inches, and the growing season is 228 days.
Water comes from the Millersview-Doole WSC, which treats surface water.
In the 1907-08 school year the Millersview school had ninety-two students and two teachers. By 1914 the town had 160 residents, three churches, three mercantile stores, a grocer, a gin, and a feed business. The population was reported as 300 by 1931, dropped to 100 by 1933, and rose to 250 by 1939.
Drought from 1950 to 1956 helped drive a decline, and the high school closed after the 1957-58 school year. In 1963 Millersview had about 175 residents, five churches, and four businesses. By 1989 its school had closed and students attended classes in Eden, and a population of seventy-five was reported from 1970 to 2000.
NOAA’s Storm Events Database lists 29 hail reports in Concho County from 2016 to 2025, 29 of them an inch across or larger, with stones up to 4 inches. 9 of those reports were logged at Millersview itself, the largest 4 inches. The same records show 12 damaging thunderstorm wind reports, with gusts up to about 81 mph, and 2 tornadoes. That is why a patio cover’s roof panels, fasteners and posts here are chosen for hail and wind, not only for shade.
Edwards Plateau ground is often thin, stony soil over limestone. A pool dig here can mean cutting rock rather than moving clay, so the excavation method and the haul-off are priced before the shell, and the deck is graded so runoff does not sit on rock that will not absorb it. In Millersview the permit goes through the city or county office that covers Millersview, and Longhorn files it and follows it through inspection. More on pools.
On the Edwards Plateau a patio cover’s footings may reach limestone a short way down. Footings are designed for what the hole actually finds, rock or deeper valley soil, and the slab is graded so water runs away from the house. In Millersview the permit goes through the city or county office that covers Millersview, and Longhorn files it and follows it through inspection. More on patio covers.
Pergola posts on thin, stony Edwards Plateau soil are set on footings anchored to the rock or taken into firm ground, with the grade around each post shedding water so the base stays dry. More on pergolas.
A sunroom or screened enclosure in Millersview is attached to the house, so it is permitted through the city or county office that covers Millersview 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 Millersview and handles the inspections, so the schedule does not stall on paperwork.
Millersview sits on Edwards Plateau ground in Concho 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.
