Fabulous Forney TX Outdoor Living Space Designs

Forney Texas, located in Kaufman County, was named the antique capital of Texas by the state legislature. This may be one of the reasons Forney homeowners look for quality materials and craftsmanship when choosing an outdoor living space builder. Here at Archadeck of Northeast Dallas-Southlake, we pour our expertise and attention to detail into every deck, patio and porch we build. We take pride in our work, and it shows!

Take a look at this amazing combination outdoor living space project we designed and built in Forney, TX:

Forney TX Stain & Stamp Patio with Bi-Level Pergola

These Forney, TX, homeowners wanted a bigger and better patio, and they also wanted a pergola after admiring one at their neighbor’s house.

Previously all the homeowners had in the way of an outdoor living space was a plain builder-grade concrete patio. They knew they would get more use out of a larger patio, and they definitely wanted something that looked better than plain poured concrete.

For the patio design, they selected a flagstone pattern stamp and chose slate-gray concrete with a charcoal stain. Stained and stamped concrete has texture and depth that makes it infinitely more visually appealing than unadorned poured concrete. The larger patio gives the homeowners room for their grill, an eight-seat dining table and a pair of rocking chairs.

For shade over the patio, we designed a stunning cedar bi-level pergola with 2×8″ double beams and 2×8″ joists giving it a beefy look. It’s called “bi-level” because the center section is raised higher than the other two sections. Raising the center section makes the pergola look energetic, yet graceful. If you look closely you can see the decorative metal hardware at the top and bottom of the 6×6″ posts. The ends of the beams, joists and rafters feature a legacy cut.

Depending on which color and pattern you choose, your custom stain and stamp concrete patio can look high-style and sophisticated or downright casual. Add an outdoor kitchen, outdoor fireplace or seating wall and fire pit and Archadeck of Northeast Dallas-Southlake will help you coordinate, match or contrast your patio surface with all your hardscape elements.

Paver Patios

As your ForneyTX patio expert, we understand if you have decided on a paver patio but have a hard time deciding which pavers to choose! With so many pavers available, from vintage-inspired to contemporary styles, you can personalize your own patio.

Once you select the main paver for the patio “field,” you can then choose different pavers for contrast either for a border or a design pattern (sometimes called a paver “rug”). Hardscapes such as pillars and retaining walls can be made of a combination of those same pavers; some paver companies offer vertical paving blocks in the same colors as the flat pavers.
