Teravista Backyards, Built to Stay Put.

Teravista is a 1,500-acre master-planned golf community in northeast Round Rock — wrapping the championship Teravista Golf Club, spilling over into Georgetown, and sitting minutes from I-35, FM 1431, and the Round Rock Premium Outlets. Built out since 2001 by a who's-who of Austin builders — Meritage, Lennar, D.R. Horton, Taylor Morrison, Highland, and more — its homes range from cozy layouts to seven-bedroom estates. Many of those original backyards are now two decades old and ready for a second act, and that's where CTX Outdoor Living comes in.

Here, the ground rules everything. Northeast Round Rock sits on expansive Blackland-type clay that swells when wet and shrinks when dry — the exact movement that cracks a slab or heaves a pergola post poured straight on dirt. It's why so many original early-2000s Teravista patios are failing now. We've built across Round Rock since 2018, and we build for that clay: proper excavation, a compacted and stabilized base, and drainage that keeps moisture steady around the foundation so hardscape and structures hold their line.

Whether you're replacing a cracked builder patio, adding a covered outdoor kitchen for game days, or framing a golf-course view with a pergola and lighting, you work with one design-build team from first sketch to final walkthrough — no subcontractor handed the job halfway through.

· Why CTX

Why Teravista Homeowners Choose CTX.

Built for Round Rock Clay

Expansive Blackland-type clay swells and shrinks with the seasons. We excavate, stabilize, and drain the base so patios and pergolas don't crack or heave.

We Replace Failing Slabs

Many original 2001-era Teravista patios are cracking. We remove them, fix the base and drainage, and rebuild — instead of pouring over the same problem.

Design Around Your View

On golf-course and greenbelt lots we frame the sightlines with careful grading, covered structures, and low-voltage lighting that opens the space at night.

Design-Build Since 2018

Hundreds of Central Texas outdoor spaces designed and installed — one Round Rock-area team, one point of contact, start to finish.

· How It Works

From First Call to Final Walkthrough.

On-Site Consultation

We walk your Teravista property, read the soil and drainage, and take the measurements and grade that drive a real design.

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 City of Round Rock permits and self-perform the build — base, hardscape, structures, lighting, turf, and drainage — with one crew you can reach.

Walkthrough

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

That's a very common Teravista project. The community started building in 2001, so many original builder patios are now 20-plus years old and showing it — especially on Round Rock's clay-heavy soil, which shrinks and swells with the seasons. We remove the old slab, correct the base and drainage, and rebuild with pavers or new concrete engineered for that soil movement.
It's the single most important factor here. Northeast Round Rock sits on expansive Blackland-type clay that swells when wet and shrinks when dry, which is what cracks slabs and heaves posts poured on dirt. In Teravista we build for it: proper excavation, a compacted and stabilized base, and drainage that keeps moisture levels around the foundation steady so the structure stays level.
Definitely. Teravista's championship course and rolling terrain give some lots long views, and we design covered patios, pergolas, and lighting to frame them — with careful grading and low-voltage lighting that opens the space up at night without glaring onto the fairway.
