· The Paloma Lake Backyard

A Lake Community on Clay, and Patios Built for It.

Paloma Lake is a master-planned community in northeast Round Rock, west of the SH-130 toll road. Building began in 2007 and ran across more than two dozen sections. Builders included Ashton Woods, Pulte, David Weekley, and Standard Pacific. The heart of the neighborhood is its 30-acre stocked lake, with a fishing dock and a shoreline trail. The HOA also runs resort-style pools, a splash pad, a fitness center, and miles of trails. Lots average about a fifth of an acre.

Most Paloma Lake homes are now ten to fifteen years old, and the original backyards show it. The builder patio is usually small and bare, and there's room on these lots for much more. We add covered patios, pergolas, outdoor kitchens, fire pits, and lighting. The yard becomes a place you use every evening.

Ground is the big difference out here. East of I-35, Round Rock sits on deep expansive clay that swells when wet and shrinks when dry. That movement cracks thin slabs and tilts posts that aren't set right. We build a thicker compacted base, reinforce the concrete, and set footings for clay. Then we add drainage that keeps water from soaking the soil by your patio.

· What We Build

Everything We Build for Paloma Lake Homes.

One design-build team for the whole backyard. Pick a service to see the details, or ask us to design the entire space.

· Why CTX

Why Paloma Lake Homeowners Choose CTX.

Slabs Built for Clay

We use a deeper compacted base and reinforced concrete so your patio resists the cracking that expansive clay causes.

Footings Set Right

Pergola and cover posts get footings sized for shrink-swell soil, so the structure stays plumb year after year.

Drainage That Protects the Soil

Wet clay swells and moves. We grade and drain the yard so water leaves fast and the ground under your patio stays steady.

Design-Build Since 2018

Hundreds of Central Texas outdoor spaces designed and installed — one local team, one point of contact, start to finish.

· How It Works

From First Call to Final Walkthrough.

On-Site Consultation

We walk your Paloma Lake yard and check the old patio for cracks. We also look at how water drains across the lot.

Design & Quote

You get a clear plan and a fixed, itemized quote — materials, layout, and timeline. No vague estimates, no surprises later.

Permit & Build

We pull the permits your address needs and self-perform the build. One crew you can reach handles the base, hardscape, structures, lighting, turf, and drainage.

Walkthrough

We finish, clean up, and walk the completed space with you. Then we stand behind the work long after we hand back the backyard.

· FAQ

Paloma Lake Outdoor Living Questions.

Have a question about building in Paloma Lake? Here are the ones we hear most — and the honest answers. Still curious? Let's talk it through on site.

Schedule a Consultation
Yes — in every section of the community, from the homes near the lake to the streets closest to SH-130. Call 512.316.4107 to confirm your street.
Very often, yes. East Round Rock sits on expansive clay that swells and shrinks with rain and drought. Thin builder slabs crack as the ground moves. We remove the old slab and rebuild on a deeper base with reinforced concrete and better drainage.
Not when the footings are built for it. We size and set footings for shrink-swell soil and keep water away from them. The structure stays level and solid.
Yes. We provide the drawings and material details for HOA review, pull the permits, and build once you're approved.

"Built on solid ground, built to last."
