Hire us in Stone Oak, and you get our in-house crew. Hire us in Bandera, and you get that exact same crew. Likewise, the project manager who handles a pergola in Alamo Heights also handles hot tub deck integration in New Braunfels.
Better yet, we never hand work off to a different team based on your zip code. Instead, every job runs through the same craftsmen and the same fixed-price quoting. That is also why our A+ BBB accountability holds up on every single project.
Since 2006, we have built decks, outdoor living spaces, and backyard retreats throughout greater San Antonio. Along the way, we learned each area’s soil, permitting quirks, and HOA expectations.
Maybe you have been searching for a deck builder near me, an outdoor living contractor, or hot tub installation. Either way, you have found the right team. Below, you will find every community we serve.
San Antonio is our home base and our largest market. Since 2006, we have completed thousands of custom deck builds, pergola installations, patio covers, and hot tub projects here.
In fact, we have worked in every zip code. That includes the North Side and the Stone Oak corridor, the South Side, the Medical Center area, and the near-east neighborhoods.
Because we build here daily, we know the city’s permit process, HOA landscape, and clay soil as well as anyone.
Stone Oak ranks among San Antonio’s most active markets for custom outdoor living. Newer construction and larger lots set the stage. Moreover, the active HOAs here carry specific architectural review requirements.
Homeowners in this corridor also invest meaningfully in their outdoor space. Because we have worked with Stone Oak’s major HOAs for years, we know what their committees want. That usually means detailed drawings, material specifications, and color documentation.
Alamo Heights pairs distinctive architecture with smaller, well-developed lots. As a result, every square foot of outdoor living space has to earn its place.
Decks and structures here should complement mid-century, Tudor, and craftsman homes rather than clash with them. We have built in the neighborhood for years. Consequently, we know how to match new outdoor structures to the existing character.
Helotes sits at the edge of the Hill Country. Expect larger lots, more rural character, and plenty of grade change.
Because these properties often slope and open onto natural views, we design around the terrain. Elevated and multi-level deck construction is common as a result. Cable railing and open pergola structures also stay popular here, since both keep the view intact.
Universal City sits in the northeastern San Antonio metro. Its neighborhoods have seen steady investment in outdoor living improvements.
Practical, well-built structures are the priority here. Think covered decks, functional patio areas, and reliable construction at honest pricing.
Schertz is a fast-growing community northeast of San Antonio. Established neighborhoods and newer developments sit side by side.
Homeowners here tend to prioritize outdoor living that extends the usable season. Durability matters too, since these structures see heavy family use.
Note that the City of Schertz has its own permitting requirements. However, we know the Schertz Development Services process and pull permits for every project we build.
Cibolo ranks among the fastest-growing communities in Bexar and Guadalupe counties. New residential development continues at pace. Homeowners here want outdoor spaces that suit newer construction homes.
Because of that growth, we work regularly in Cibolo’s newer subdivisions. In addition, we know the HOA requirements common to the area’s master-planned communities.
Converse is an established community in northeastern San Antonio. Its housing stock ranges from mid-century homes to new construction.
We serve Converse homeowners across our full range of services. That includes new builds, repairs, maintenance, and complete outdoor living additions.
Boerne is a growing Kendall County community with strong Hill Country character. Larger lots, distinctive architecture, and real investment in outdoor space define the market.
Full luxury builds are common here, from covered decks to integrated spa and pergola projects. Keep in mind that Boerne’s city limits carry their own permit requirements. Meanwhile, unincorporated Kendall County follows a separate process.
Bulverde sits in the northern Hill Country corridor. Properties run large, and the natural terrain shapes most designs. Homeowners want spaces that feel connected to the landscape rather than dropped on top of it.
Elevated decks on sloped lots come up often. Natural materials do too. Above all, the goal is a structure that frames the view instead of dominating it.
We have built extensively in Bulverde. Therefore, the Spring Branch and Bulverde building requirements in Comal County are familiar ground.
New Braunfels is one of the fastest-growing cities in Texas. It is also a strong market for outdoor living investment.
Guadalupe River access and Hill Country proximity drive much of that demand. Add steady residential growth, and outdoor spaces here serve both daily family life and frequent entertaining.
We build regularly throughout the city and the surrounding county. As a result, the New Braunfels building department and Comal County permit requirements are familiar to us.
Canyon Lake sits northwest of New Braunfels in Comal County. Here, outdoor living is built around the water, the views, and the terrain.
Properties often have significant grade changes and mature tree cover. Elevated and multi-level decks are therefore common.
For those settings, we lean toward open pergola structures, cable railing, and natural materials.
Lake Medina sits west of San Antonio in Bandera County. It is a quieter, more rural lake community. Projects here tend to be larger in scope and longer in planning.
Terrain variation, mature trees, and a genuinely natural setting come standard. Because of that, a well-designed deck can transform how a property feels.
Many Lake Medina homeowners want one trusted contractor from design through installation. That is exactly how we work.
Bandera — the Cowboy Capital of the World — has a strong sense of place. Properties range from in-town lots to large rural ranches.
Consequently, outdoor living here often means large-scale work. Examples include full wraparound porches, barn-style pergola structures, and decks built for both heat and rough terrain.
We serve Bandera County homeowners on residential and rural property projects alike.
Every project gets the same process. That holds true for a 200 sq ft ground-level deck in Converse and for a full luxury build in Boerne.
That consistency is why we have stayed A+ BBB rated since 2006.
City of San Antonio — permits are required for attached decks, decks 30+ inches above grade, and spa-supporting structures. The Development Services Department handles submittals.
Schertz, Cibolo, Universal City, and Converse — each city runs its own building department. Their applications and inspections are separate from San Antonio’s.
Boerne and Kendall County — city limits carry one set of requirements. Unincorporated Kendall County follows another.
Comal County (Bulverde, New Braunfels, Canyon Lake) — the county and the City of New Braunfels run separate permit processes. Properties outside city limits follow county regulations instead.
Bandera County and Lake Medina — rural requirements are often more permissive. Even so, HOAs and deed restrictions in specific communities still apply.
We confirm the permit requirements for your specific address before the design phase starts. In other words, we never draw plans first and discover compliance problems later.
No. Our pricing follows project scope and materials, not location. A composite deck in Boerne is quoted the same way as one in Stone Oak. Also, we add no travel surcharges anywhere in our standard service area.
We’ve worked with most major HOAs across the greater San Antonio area — Stone Oak, Alamo Heights, The Dominion, Cibolo Canyons, Vintage Oaks in New Braunfels, and others. For any HOA we haven’t worked with previously, we contact their architectural review committee directly and prepare the required documentation. HOA approval is factored into your project timeline from day one.
Yes. Our team pulls permits in every jurisdiction we serve — City of San Antonio, Schertz, Cibolo, New Braunfels, Boerne, and unincorporated Comal, Kendall, and Bandera counties. We prepare drawings, submit applications, pay fees, and meet inspectors on site.
Most free on-site consultations happen within 1–2 business days of your call. Design and quoting then takes another 3–7 days after the site visit.
If you’re within reasonable distance of our San Antonio service area and the project scope warrants the travel, call us and we’ll let you know. We’ve taken projects outside our standard service footprint when the fit is right.
From Stone Oak to Canyon Lake, and from Alamo Heights to Bandera, we bring the same 19-year track record to every job. You also get the same in-house crew and the same fixed-price process.
