Backyard Transformations in Waco, TX
A full design-build makeover — the backyard planned from scratch, then built as one project: concrete, structures, beds, turf, and irrigation. We work across Waco — Woodway, Hewitt, Robinson and the surrounding area.
SCOPE
What this service covers.
Only the work we actually do — no padded list. If you are not sure whether your job fits, send a photo and we will tell you straight.
A full design, not a patch
Layout for patio, structures, beds, lawn, and paths drawn together before anything is priced.
Grading and site prep
The yard shaped so water leaves it — the step that decides whether everything built on top lasts.
Concrete, structures, and features
Patios, walkways, pergolas, fire features, and outdoor kitchens built in the right order.
Planting, sod, and irrigation last
Softscape and a new sprinkler layout finished once the heavy work is out of the yard.

Why people call about this.
Nothing in the yard is worth keeping
Builder sod, a small slab, and bare fences. It is faster to plan fresh than to work around it.
You want it to work as one space
A kitchen, a fire pit, and shade that relate to each other instead of scattered across the lawn.
The ground itself is the problem
Poor grading on Blackland clay or shallow limestone changes what can be built where. A full redesign deals with it once.
WACO, TX
Backyard Transformations in Waco: what’s different here.
Waco is the McLennan County seat, a city of about 138,500 people (2020 census) on the Brazos River and I-35, home to Baylor University, with Lake Waco on its western edge. Its neighborhoods range from historic districts like Castle Heights to newer growth in Hewitt, Woodway, China Spring, and the I-35 corridor south toward Robinson and Lorena. Waco and each suburb (Hewitt, Woodway, Robinson, Lorena) issue their own permits, many newer subdivisions have HOAs, and because it is about 40 minutes from Temple, visits and work days are planned around the drive.
Outdoor Living in Waco
Larger lots in Woodway and China Spring have room for full outdoor kitchens, while historic-neighborhood lots usually call for compact layouts around existing trees.
The ground
East and south of Waco the soil is heavy Houston Black clay with severe shrink-swell, while to the west toward Lake Waco and Woodway the ground carries more limestone and chalk close to the surface.
Homes and lots
Older homes on tree-lined streets in neighborhoods like Castle Heights and Sanger Heights, family subdivisions in Hewitt and Woodway, and larger lots and acreage around China Spring.
