Completed outdoor living project by True Star Outdoor Solutions
Backyard Remodels · Carrollton, Texas

Carrollton outdoor living,
engineered around North Texas soil, drainage and weather.

Carrollton sits minutes from our crews' daily routes between The Colony and Lewisville. Established lots, mature trees, and creek-corridor drainage make it classic remodel territory: correct the water, build the covered room, finish the yard. Same engineered standard, same written warranty, same one-team build.

We like working with HOAs. Architectural review exists to protect your neighborhood's value, and we prepare your drawings, materials list, and engineering to your association's standard so your packet is ready to pass the first time you submit it. If your community isn't listed, we serve all of Carrollton.
