End-to-End Outdoor Living Design & Build
Serving McKinney & Surrounding Areas
Comprehensive Design-Build for Outdoor Living
One accountable partner from concept to completion
Summerwood Backyards provides a true Full Design and Build service that unites planning, engineering, permitting, and construction under a single, accountable team. From the first design discussion and site evaluation to 3D renderings, stamped structural plans, and a detailed construction roadmap, we manage every phase to eliminate guesswork and keep your project on time and on budget.
Our capabilities cover the full spectrum of outdoor living: covered patios and pergolas, decks and pavilions, outdoor kitchens and fireplaces, pool houses and sheds, as well as flatwork, masonry, lighting, drainage, and utility coordination. By aligning aesthetics with structural performance and long-term maintenance considerations, Summerwood Backyards delivers spaces that look exceptional and function flawlessly.
Clear steps, transparent pricing, reliable schedules
Discovery begins with an on-site consultation to understand your goals, style, and investment range. We document measurements, evaluate sun, shade, and drainage, and create concept designs and 3D visuals. Next, we refine materials and finishes, value-engineer smart options, and deliver a clear scope with a fixed-price proposal and projected timeline.
Pre-construction includes permitting, HOA coordination, surveys, and engineering. Your project manager oversees scheduling, safety, and inspections while communicating milestones, budgets, and any changes in real time. We conclude with a thorough walkthrough, punch list completion, owner orientation, and a closeout package detailing warranties, finishes, and care instructions.
Built to perform, inspected to protect your investment
Every structure is engineered for load, uplift, and longevity. We specify robust footings, proper post anchors, concealed hardware where appropriate, and corrosion-resistant fasteners. For outdoor kitchens and utilities, licensed trades handle gas, electrical, and water tie-ins to ensure safe, reliable performance.
Materials are selected for durability and maintenance ease—rot-resistant lumber or steel posts, high-strength concrete, moisture management and flashing details, and masonry built to endure. We prioritize drainage solutions, UV-stable finishes, and ventilation strategies so surfaces stay beautiful and structures remain sound.
Compliance is non-negotiable. We follow applicable building codes, fire clearances, and electrical and gas standards, and coordinate required inspections. Our jobsite practices include surface protection, dust and debris control, and responsible waste handling to minimize disruption and safeguard your property.
