Building in Taylor County
Taylor County is in west central Texas, and Abilene, its largest city, is 151 miles west of Fort Worth. The county covers 917 square miles of grassy prairie with some mesquite and live oak in the Rolling Plains. Abilene has been the county seat since an election in 1883.
Loamy surface soils are reddish to brownish, and clayey subsoils often hold lime accumulations. Altitudes range from 1,672 to 2,410 feet, and the Callahan Divide crosses from east to west, separating the Brazos and Colorado watersheds. The semi-arid climate brings 23.59 inches of rain a year. January lows average 31° F, July highs 96°, and the growing season lasts 225 days.
The legislature created the county in 1858 and named it for Alamo defenders Edward, James, and George Taylor. Buffalo hunters and bone gatherers were the first European settlers in the 1870s, and the county organized in 1878 with Buffalo Gap as seat. The Texas and Pacific Railway bypassed Buffalo Gap for the new town of Abilene in 1881. Ranching came first, but cotton led farming by 1910.
NOAA’s Storm Events Database lists 118 hail reports in Taylor County from 2016 to 2025, 104 of them an inch across or larger, with stones up to 3 inches. The same records show 89 damaging thunderstorm wind reports, with gusts up to about 96 mph, and 5 tornadoes. That is why a patio cover’s roof panels, fasteners and posts here are chosen for hail and wind, not only for shade.

Inside a town’s limits, that town’s own office reviews the permit. Outside town limits, Taylor County rules apply. We confirm which one covers your address at the design visit, then file the permit and handle the inspections.
The towns we serve in Taylor County sit on Rolling Plains clay ground. The ground decides how a slab, a pool shell or a footing has to be built, so the drainage and footings are planned for it at the first visit.
