Patio Builder in Highland Park
Natural stone and paver patios built into the mature lots of Highland Park and University Park, with the base and drainage done right.
Serving Highland Park since 2004· Licensed & insured · Free on-site estimates
Patios in Highland Park and University Park work around mature trees and established landscaping, on lots tighter than most. That is the patio work we do.
We build in pavers and natural stone. Bluestone suits the older brick and limestone homes here, and travertine stays cool underfoot through summer.
We compact a proper base and pitch the surface so water drains away from the house and the tree roots both, so the patio holds flat for years.
A patio is usually the floor for the rest of the space. It carries out to a fire pit or an outdoor kitchen, and often sits above a retaining wall on sloped lots.
Most patios go in over 1 to 2 weeks, a little longer where access is tight. We measure the yard and give you a fixed price before we start.

“Lalo came out himself to look at our coping. Didn't try to upsell us on stuff we didn't need. Just told us what needed fixing and gave us a fair price.”
Homeowner, Fort Worth TX
“Had another company do our tile and it started falling off after one summer. Lalo's crew came in, tore it out, and redid the whole thing. Should have called them first.”

FAQ
Patios in Highland Park, answered
Yes. On an older Park Cities home we source bluestone, travertine, or limestone that reads against the existing brick and stonework, so the patio looks like it was part of the original build.
Bluestone is a common pick here. Its tight grain and blue-gray tone sit well with the older brick and limestone homes. Travertine reads warmer and stays cool underfoot in summer, and limestone or a wider flagstone suits a garden patio. We bring samples and set them against your house in daylight before you decide.
The base. Dallas clay swells wet and shrinks dry, which is the main reason patios heave and sink. We excavate, compact a proper base in layers, and pitch the surface to drain away from the house. On these lots we also route around mature tree roots and established grades, so the patio holds flat.
Yes. The mature trees and established gardens are a big part of why these lots look the way they do, so we protect them. We plan the layout and the drainage around root zones and existing grades, and we stage carefully on tight lots so the rest of the yard comes through the build intact.
Most Highland Park patios go in over 1 to 2 weeks, including excavation, base, and setting the stone. Tight access or a footprint that ties into a kitchen or fire feature runs a little longer. We give you the schedule before we start.
