"Round Rock is easy to plan if you start with the city's rules. Five feet off the side and back property lines, nothing in an easement, and the review takes a while. So we lay the deck out against your survey on day one. Then we look at the dirt, because the west side and the east side are two different jobs."

Learn moreRound Rock permits are issued by the City of Round Rock under the 2024 IRC. The city quotes about 30 business days for review, keeps structures out of easements and 5 ft side and rear setbacks, and includes two inspections of each type. We handle the application and inspections.
Most Round Rock subdivisions built since the 1990s have an HOA with architectural review. Teravista, Forest Creek, Behrens Ranch and Paloma Lake are typical: the committee wants a site plan, dimensions, materials and colors, and approval comes before the city permit. Some older central neighborhoods have no HOA. We check your deed restrictions and submit for you.
Round Rock sits on the Balcones Fault Zone. West of I-35, neighborhoods like Behrens Ranch and Cat Hollow tend to have limestone close to the surface. East of the interstate, the Blackland Prairie clay is deep and highly expansive. Rock lots get drilled footings; clay lots get footings designed for soil movement and grading that moves water away.
The challenge: Round Rock does not allow decks and accessory structures to encroach into easements or the 5 ft side and rear setbacks. Many backyards have a utility or drainage easement along the back fence.
How we handle it: We lay the design out against your plat and survey before quoting, so the deck or cover fits the buildable area and passes review the first time.
The challenge: The City of Round Rock quotes about 30 business days for permit review, which surprises homeowners planning for a spring party.
How we handle it: We file as soon as the design is final and HOA approval is in, and we tell you the realistic start date up front instead of promising a quick turnaround.
The challenge: West Round Rock tends toward limestone and thin soil, while east of I-35 the Blackland clay is deep and expansive.
How we handle it: We check the soil on every lot and choose footing depth and design to match, with drainage that keeps water away from posts on clay lots.
"We moved from California and wanted a proper Texas outdoor space. All Seasons built us a massive covered patio with a built-in grill area. Every weekend we have neighbors over, and everyone asks who built it. The quality is noticeably better than decks we see in other backyards."
