The homeowner wanted to build an outdoor living room that blended with the neighborhood’s strict guidelines per Historic District requirements in the Historic Heights area of Houston. It had to be designed and built to look original to the home.
The vaulted ceiling is painted tongue & groove with built out beams. This design continued the original style of the home to meet the specifications of the Historic District.
We installed a grey composite deck that was tied into the existing foundation and added white accent trim and railing.
The fireplace was built taking into consideration existing design with a two tier format to be able to add in stone with cohesive trim carpentry to be able to “close off” the television when not in use.
Time to get cozy in front of the fireplace with great book or a group of friends to watch a game… one would never believe they are in the middle of a big city.
An additional stone firepit and travertine pad was installed to create additional outdoor living space just a few steps from the covered patio.
Here is the home before we came in and worked our magic.
Texas Custom Patios was a pleasure to work with from first call to final detail on our patio cover and flooring. Everyone we worked with — office personnel on scheduling, crews on fast and quality work, and Steven helping with design ideas and scheduling and issue resolution — were all what contracting should be. We had been looking at our odd roofline, chimney location and numerous angles for over 10 years and received numerous quotes and estimates that just didn’t work or the contractors flatly said they couldn’t do what we were looking for . . . until Steven and TCP arrived and did exactly what we wanted (and more) on time, on budget, no hassle. We love our new space and receive many compliments on the look and functionality of the space and design. We would love to have TCP and Steven do another project for us and we recommend them to anyone.
