What should Rowlett homeowners know before building a backyard?
Rowlett occupies a peninsula between two arms of Lake Ray Hubbard, so a large share of its lots back to shoreline or to steep drainage falling toward the lake. Most of the housing stock dates from the 1970s through the 1990s buildout, with a band of newer construction replacing homes lost in the 2015 tornado along the northern edge.
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 Rowlett and follow it through review, so the schedule doesn’t stall on paperwork.
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.

How a Backyard Project Runs in Rowlett
- 1
A free design visit in Rowlett
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 Rowlett and follow it through review, so the schedule does not stall on paperwork. Where an HOA wants a submittal, we prepare the drawings it asks for.

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.
Homes and Yards in Rowlett
Rowlett’s building boom began when Lake Ray Hubbard was completed in 1971.
Yards from those decades are usually established, with grown trees, a fence line and an original patio that is often too small. Most projects become a retrofit, planned around what is worth keeping.
Rowlett is bordered on the east and south by Lake Ray Hubbard and on the west by Rowlett Creek. Open ground near the water tends to catch more wind, so shade structures are anchored and placed with the breeze in mind.

Rowlett backyard 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 of Rowlett and handles the inspections, so the schedule does not stall on paperwork.
Rowlett 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.
