What the Ground Is Like in Rockdale
Rockdale is a small city in Milam County on Highway 79.
Much of the ground around Rockdale is sandy loam over clay. It drains fast on top but can be loose around footings.
That matters because the ground under a deck, porch or pergola decides how long it stays level. We look at your soil and slope during the estimate and build for what we find.
Decks, Patios, Porches and Pergolas in Rockdale
One crew plans and builds the whole outdoor space, so the deck, the cover and the steps line up.
- Decks in wood or composite
- Patios and covered patios
- Front and back porches
- Patio enclosures and screened porches
- Pergolas, attached or freestanding
Sandy soil is easy to dig but can be loose, so we bell out footings and pack the soil around them.
Shade and Covered Patios in Rockdale
Shade is what makes a backyard usable in a Central Texas summer.
- Covered patios and patio covers that tie into your roof or stand on their own posts
- Pergolas for filtered shade over a deck or patio
- Patio enclosures and screened porches to keep the bugs out
Sandy lots under post oaks and pines get filtered shade but plenty of bugs, so screened porches and enclosures are a common pick.
Permits and HOA Rules in Rockdale
Rules change from city to city. Raised decks, decks attached to the house and roofed structures are the jobs that most often need a permit. If your home is in a neighborhood with an HOA, the design may also need HOA approval. We check what Rockdale and your HOA need before we set a start date.
