What should Keller homeowners know before building a backyard?

Tarrant County · Eastern Cross Timbers soil

Keller lots tend to be generous and gently sloped, which suits a stepped design — pool at one level, covered living at another, rather than flattening everything to one slab.

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.

We file the permit with the City of Keller and follow it through review, so the schedule doesn’t stall on paperwork. Locally that is the Building Services, Community Development. Keller buys its water wholesale from the City of Fort Worth, which draws on Tarrant Regional Water District reservoirs.

Longhorn has built across Tarrant 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.

How it runs

How a Backyard Project Runs in Keller

  1. 1

    A free design visit in Keller

    A designer comes out to the house, measures, walks the access a crew would need, and talks through what you want the space to do. You leave with a firm price. On Eastern Cross Timbers ground, that is also when the grading, drainage and movement details get decided rather than improvised on site.

  2. 2

    Drawings, permit and HOA

    We file the permit with the City of Keller — locally that is the Building Services, Community Development — and follow it through review, along with any HOA submittal.

  3. 3

    One crew, one schedule

    The same team builds the whole job in order, so the slab, the structure, the electrical and the finish work are not three different companies working around each other.

  4. 4

    Walkthrough and warranty

    We walk the finished backyard with you, settle the punch list and leave one warranty on the work — and we are still Tarrant County-local if you need us later.

Keller backyard questions

The Building Services, Community Development reviews residential projects in Keller. Pools and structures attached to the house, such as patio covers, sunrooms and enclosures, almost always need a permit. Longhorn files it and follows it through inspection.

Keller buys its water wholesale from the City of Fort Worth, which draws on Tarrant Regional Water District reservoirs. Watering schedules can tighten in a drought, so we plan the planting and irrigation around the current rules and choose heat-tolerant plants that can establish on them.
