What should Irving homeowners know before building a backyard?

Dallas County · Blackland Prairie soil

From Las Colinas to the older grid south of it, Irving lots differ widely in size and setback. The design visit is what sorts out which of it actually fits.

This is Blackland Prairie ground — deep, dark clay that swells in a wet spring and shrinks hard by August. It is the reason we engineer the pool shell for movement and set control joints in the flatwork on purpose rather than wherever the pour ends.

We file the permit with the City of Irving and follow it through review, so the schedule doesn’t stall on paperwork. Locally that is the Inspections Department. Irving supplies its own water from Lake Chapman rights plus treated water bought from Dallas Water Utilities.

Longhorn has built across Dallas 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.

Irving backyard questions

The Inspections Department reviews residential projects in Irving. 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.

Irving supplies its own water from Lake Chapman rights plus treated water bought from Dallas Water Utilities. 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.
