What should Denton homeowners know before building a backyard?
Denton sits on sandier ground than the black clay east of I-35, so it digs more easily. The drainage design still comes first, because that sand is sitting on clay that holds water.
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.
In Denton the job is reviewed by the Development Services — Building Safety, and we file and follow the permit through that office ourselves. Denton lists swimming pools as their own residential permit category and reviews pool and spa work under its local amendments to the 2021 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code.
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.
