Celebrate Christmas in July with us by clicking the image below! Discover details of this beautiful covered patio in Houston.
Houston is all the buzz with Super Bowl bringing its huddle into Texas on Sunday, February 5th (like we had to tell you the date)! In 2004, over 200,000 people visited Houston to take part in the football festivities … this year one million people are predicted to jam their way into H-town. If you’re not one of the 72,000 that paid a minimum of $3,499 for one ticket, then you need a place to party and watch the big game!
No better place to party for this football frenzy than your own patio! After all, you’ll have the best seat in the house, comfortable seating, great food at your fingertips and you’ll always be close to a bathroom. Many people have outdoor patios built just so they can either watch football outside or so they can entertain at a moment’s notice! In fact, some of our customers called us back in August of 2016 and said, “Hey, Texas Custom Patios, we would like to have this ready by Super Bowl Sunday, is that possible.?” So we got to building and guess what, the covered patios, outdoor kitchens and living rooms were built and those watching parties are sure to be a touchdown now! So go ahead, invite over your football-loving friends, fire up the grill and get ready to party.
Sports Illustrated came up with 13 things you MUST have for your Super Bowl LI Party … Here’s a hint … Insta-Chill Beer Glasses! Instant score!
Grab all 13 if you can, but at the end of the day … there are three categories of “Super Sunday Party-Goers” and we have something for each one.
The anticipation of sweet and savory delights to enjoy during the big game brings this fan to the table… literally, and probably more than once! For the Snack Specialist, we offer this list of Super Sunday party dishes that can be prepared outside.
Grilled Buttermilk Hot Wings
Grilled Pizza
Grilled Chicken and Vegetable Enchiladas – make ahead
Pig Candy
Cookies & Cream Football Dip
This fan may talk through every single play, then shush everyone when the commercials begin. We get it. After all, advertisers pay huge dollars for these coveted spots and strive to put their most creative efforts out there. For the Ad Aficionado, we offer this list, which gives you a sneak preview of what companies are buying up ads this year and some hints at their plans.
When your team makes the Big Game, the intensity dials up even more! Be sure to use your outside voice on your patio when cheering on your team to victory. For the Game Devotee, here’s a great resource to keep up with the latest game news!
What’s your favorite part of the game? Is it the food, the ads or the football? Comment on our Facebook page, we want to know!

“I’ll start my diet on Monday,” “I’ll start exercising after we get back from vacation,” “I’ll slow down and try to enjoy life after my next big promotion.” These are all things that many of us say too often. With 2017 comin’ in hot, you’ll be telling yourself … I’ll just make it my new year’s resolution and start next year, right?
Speaking of resolutions, here are the TOP TEN resolutions made year after year.
10. Read more
9. Travel more
8. Learn something new
7. Won’t make a resolution
6. Get organized
5. Spend more time with family and friends
4. Spend less, save more
3. Enjoy life to the fullest
2. Lose weight
1. Stay fit and healthy (we have all done that one before)
While we agree with staying fit and healthy, we agree with number 3 the most. Everyone should enjoy life to the fullest! So when you’re brushing your teeth, do a little dance. When you’re checking out at the grocery store, stop to smile and say hello to the person behind the counter, and most importantly when you’re in your backyard, have a place you are proud to call home.
Go ahead, fantasize for a moment. Which of these do you like the best?
Now we realize you may have to do a little of number 4 before you can start ripping up grass and laying concrete, picking out grills and paint colors, but you can get there! We have a nifty little timeline to help you, too! If you are set on having a custom patio built by a certain date, the guideline below will help you know when to get started.

Each month we take time to answer the most commonly asked questions we get from future customers. This month we are focusing on perhaps the most important question … “What is your specialty?” It’s hard to narrow it down as we pride ourselves at being the best in the business, focusing on perfection no matter the size of the dream.
But to answer your question, we can sum up our specialty in one word … CUSTOM (so much so, we have it in our name)! Every single Texas Custom Patios’ project is custom-designed and built to enhance your home perfectly and complement your personality.
We are family-owned and operated with our original home office out of Stafford, Texas and our second hub in Irving, Texas. We service areas that cover greater Houston as well as Dallas and Fort Worth and surrounding areas. We have completed more than 1,200 custom outdoor living projects since we opened our doors in 2004.
We are always so thrilled to build something that enhances the home, while looking original to the home. The additions are seamless and flawless, leaving our customers smitten with where they’re sittin’!
We provide turnkey design solutions for outdoor living including: patio covers, outdoor kitchens, screened porches and patios; room additions, pergolas, decks, outdoor fire features and so much more!

We were very pleased with Texas Custom Patios and how our primary contact, Ryan, approached the job. He was very polished and professional and as issues surfaced during the project he was quick to deliver a solid solution. Well worth the investment. We are very pleased with the outcome of this patio and are happy to be a reference to anyone with questions.
