Create Usable Space Around Your Pool

Patio installation in Dallas using concrete, pavers, and stone for outdoor living areas

Your backyard has open space next to the pool, but it's still grass or dirt that turns muddy after rain and doesn't provide a stable surface for furniture or foot traffic. Homes across Dallas are adding patios that connect pools to outdoor kitchens, seating areas, and deck access points. Passmore Construction LLC installs patios using concrete, pavers, or stone chosen for durability, slip resistance, and how well they hold up under North Carolina weather conditions.

This service includes material selection, base preparation, layout design, and installation of your patio surface. Options range from poured concrete with textured finishes to interlocking pavers or natural stone arranged in custom patterns. Around pools, slip-resistant textures are used to reduce hazards on wet surfaces. In Dallas, where summer heat, heavy rain, and seasonal temperature shifts can cause cracking or shifting, proper base preparation and material choice determine how long your patio stays level and intact.

What's Included in This Service

After you approve the design, the crew excavates the area, lays a compacted gravel base, and installs your chosen surface material. You'll see the patio laid to grade so water drains away from the house and pool, with edges finished to match adjacent hardscapes or landscaping. In Dallas, where clay soil can shift with moisture changes, the base is prepared to prevent settling or cracking over time.

Once the installation is complete, you'll have a stable, slip-resistant surface ready for furniture, grills, and foot traffic. Passmore Construction LLC integrates patios with steps, seating walls, and transitions to decks or other outdoor features so the space feels connected. Textured concrete resists fading and pavers can be replaced individually if one becomes damaged.

This service does not include pool coping, retaining walls, or drainage systems beyond basic grading. If your yard has significant slope or erosion issues, those are addressed separately through hardscaping or site prep work. The goal is to create a finished surface that handles regular use and local weather without frequent repairs.

Why Locals Choose This Option

Homeowners in Dallas planning patio installations often ask about material performance, drainage, and how different surfaces hold up around pools and outdoor kitchens.

What's the difference between concrete and paver patios?
Concrete is poured as a single surface and can be textured or stained. Pavers are individual units laid in patterns and allow for easier replacement if one cracks or stains.

How do you prevent water from pooling on the patio surface?
The patio is graded with a slight slope away from structures so water drains naturally. In Dallas, where heavy rain is common, proper grading prevents standing water and reduces slip hazards.

What makes a patio surface slip-resistant around pools?
Textured finishes, brushed concrete, and certain paver styles create friction even when wet. Smooth surfaces are avoided in pool areas because they become hazardous when water splashes onto them.

Why is base preparation important for patio longevity?
A compacted gravel base prevents the patio from settling unevenly as the ground shifts. Without it, cracks and low spots develop within the first few seasons.

When should I install a patio in relation to my pool build?
Patios are typically installed after the pool is complete and filled but before final landscaping. This timing prevents damage to the patio surface during pool construction and allows for precise transitions.
