Frisco outdoor living,
engineered around North Texas soil, drainage and weather.
Frisco is home base. True Star operates from Rose Lane, and no city carries more of our work, from outdoor kitchens in Hollyhock to a $91,000 cantilever-and-turf transformation on the west side. If you live in Frisco, you've probably driven past a True Star backyard.
What backyards are worth building here.
Built for Frisco's best streets.
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 Frisco.
The Frisco permit manual.
Frisco treats covered patios and pergolas as residential alterations/additions, updated submittal requirements published February 2026 require site plans, construction drawings, and engineering for structural work. We prepare and submit it all.
What Frisco is built on.
Split city: east Frisco sits on Blackland Prairie Houston Black clay; west Frisco (our side of town) transitions to Eagle Ford-derived clays with Woodbine sandy pockets
Houston Black is the classic Texas vertisol: plasticity index commonly 40 to 60, very high shrink-swell, drought cracks up to 4 inches wide at the surface
The same yard can heave in May and crack open in August. Our 7 to 9 inch excavation, geotextile separation, and pier footings below the moisture-active zone exist for exactly this soil
handled for Frisco.
Real line-itemized numbers, milestone payments, and a written 2-year workmanship warranty. Millions of dollars in completed outdoor projects across North DFW since 2020.
