Outdoor Living in The Heights — Common Questions

Answers to the questions The Heights homeowners ask most about outdoor living. Don't see yours? Reach out for a free quote.

Can a small Heights backyard support real outdoor living?
Yes — small lots reward good design. A right-sized covered seating area, a compact grill station, and layered lighting can make a modest yard the most-used space in the house without crowding it.
Do outdoor structures in the Heights need permits or review?
Structural covers and anything with gas or electrical service require City of Houston permits, and exterior work on blocks within a designated historic district may also need review. We verify what applies to your lot and handle the process.
What outdoor materials suit a Craftsman-era home?
Cedar, painted and stained wood details, and brick or stone underfoot tend to sit naturally beside a bungalow, and all of them can be specified to handle Gulf Coast humidity. We'll match the palette to your home's existing exterior.
Have you built outdoor living spaces near the Heights?
Yes — our covered patio work in neighboring Montrose is a short drive away, built on similar inner-loop lots. It's a good reference point for what a well-scaled outdoor space can do for a historic neighborhood home.
Client Reviews

Don't Just Take Our Word For It

Our greatest pride is the trust we've built with homeowners throughout the community.

Hector and his team were great to work with from the first meeting for concept planning to the last day of blue tape walk through and clean up. We had added covered patio that needed permits which his team handled. We had a few design changes along the way to meet city regulations but Hector was very collaborative with us at each change to make sure it fit our ideal backyard. The landscaping and paved walkway were also done to perfection. Now our backyard looks like it's out of a high end design magazine and we're ready for the Houston summer.

Covered Patio & Outdoor Living

This is my third time using HR Remodeling. The first time was after my house had a water line that busted and they had to totally reduce the downstairs of my home. Now I moved to a new home and they did a complete remodel. Not only was the work done in a short timeframe it was completed with quality. Their quote and billing process is easy and convenient. Workers show up when they say they will and they clean up after themselves.
