Before you build in Perrin
Perrin is on U.S. Highway 281, fifteen miles from Jacksboro in south central Jack County. It is surrounded by the open prairie of the Keechi Valley, treeless except for a few mesquites.
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 Perrin 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 Perrin
Perrin was established around 1870 and named in honor of L. W. Perrin, an early settler, whose son Louis provided the land on which the community was built. It acquired a post office in 1931.
On open ground with few trees, a solid-roof patio cover supplies shade the site lacks, and it should be built to handle wind on an exposed lot.
Jack County’s land is undulating to hilly, with light-colored, loamy soils over very deep reddish clayey subsoils, shale, and sandstone. The average rainfall is about thirty inches a year, and the growing season extends for 218 days.
Perrin’s population has varied from a high of 600 in 1928 to a low of 220 in 1933 but has generally remained stable at 300 to 350. In 1990 Perrin had 300 residents and five businesses, and the population remained unchanged in 2000.
NOAA’s Storm Events Database lists 41 hail reports in Jack County from 2016 to 2025, 36 of them an inch across or larger, with stones up to 3.25 inches. 2 of those reports were logged at Perrin itself, the largest 1.75 inches. The same records show 27 damaging thunderstorm wind reports, with gusts up to about 94 mph, and 7 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 Perrin, TX
How is a pool built in Perrin?
Western Cross Timbers ground is sandy to loamy soil over clay or rock, in rolling, wooded country. A pool dig may meet rock, and water runs along the layer below the sand, so excavation and drainage are priced and planned before the shell. In Perrin the permit goes through the city or county office that covers Perrin, and Longhorn files it and follows it through inspection. More on pools.
What does a patio cover need in Perrin?
In the Western Cross Timbers a post hole can pass through sand into clay or rock. Patio cover footings are sized for what lies under the topsoil, and the slab is graded so water does not run toward the house. In Perrin the permit goes through the city or county office that covers Perrin, and Longhorn files it and follows it through inspection. More on patio covers.
How is a pergola built to last in Perrin?
On Western Cross Timbers ground a pergola’s posts need footings set into firm ground below the sandy topsoil, with the grade around each post shedding water so wooden posts stay dry at the base. More on pergolas.
Can a sunroom or screened enclosure be added in Perrin?
A sunroom or screened enclosure in Perrin is attached to the house, so it is permitted through the city or county office that covers Perrin 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.
Perrin outdoor living questions
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 Perrin and handles the inspections, so the schedule does not stall on paperwork.
Perrin sits on Western Cross Timbers ground in Jack 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.
