Hardscaping & Retaining Walls in Arlington, TX
Retaining walls, paver patios, pergolas, patio covers and carports for homes and businesses across the Dallas-Fort Worth metro area.
Texan Construction & Landscaping builds retaining walls, paver patios, pergolas, patio covers, and carports for homeowners and businesses in Arlington and across the Dallas-Fort Worth area. If your yard slopes, your patio bakes in the sun, or you need covered parking, we handle the build from the ground up.
Hardscaping is what turns a plain yard into a space you actually use. We plan the drainage, set the base, and build with materials that hold up to Texas heat and clay soil. You get a clear written estimate and work that stays solid through the seasons.
What's Included
What We Handle
Retaining Walls
Stone, block, and concrete retaining walls that hold back soil on sloped lots and stop erosion. We dig to a solid base, compact it, and build in drainage behind the wall so water pressure never builds up against the face of it. From a low planter wall to a tall wall holding back a yard, we build it to stay put.
Pavers & Stone
Paver patios, walkways, and stone features laid on a compacted base that won't shift or settle unevenly. We set the pattern, grade for drainage, and lock the joints so the surface stays flat and weed free through North Texas weather.
Pergolas
Wood and metal pergolas that give you open, partial shade and a defined outdoor room. We size the posts and footings for Texas wind and anchor them solid so the structure stays level for years.
Patio Covers
Solid patio covers that block the sun and rain so you can use the patio in any weather. We tie them into the house or stand them on their own posts, sized to handle DFW storms without sagging.
Carports
Freestanding and attached carports that keep the sun, rain, and hail off your vehicles. We build the frame and roof to North Texas wind loads and set the posts in concrete footings that hold.
Built for North Texas
The clay soil across DFW holds onto water, and water trapped behind a retaining wall is what pushes walls over time. Proper drainage behind the wall matters as much as the wall itself. We build in gravel backfill and drainage outlets so water has a way out instead of building pressure against the stone.
Shade structures make Texas backyards usable in summer, when a full sun patio is too hot to sit on. A pergola or patio cover gives you a spot that stays comfortable through the afternoon, and a carport keeps the sun and hail off your vehicle. We size the posts and footings so the structure holds up to North Texas wind.
For Homeowners
Sloped yards leveled out with retaining walls, outdoor living spaces built around a patio, shade over your seating area, and covered parking for your vehicles. We tie the pieces together so the yard works as one space.
For Businesses
Erosion control walls, covered walkways and parking for customers and staff, and outdoor seating areas built to handle daily use. We work around your hours and build to hold up to foot and vehicle traffic.

Build and Walkthrough

A retaining wall is doing two jobs at once, holding back soil and moving water away from where it shouldn't sit. The walls that fail around here almost always come down to two things, a weak base and no drainage behind the wall. We dig down to solid ground, compact the base, and run drainage behind the wall so the soil and water pressure never builds up against the face of it. Whether it's a low wall along a flower bed or a tall wall holding back a sloped yard in Arlington, the approach is the same.
On top of the walls and pavers, we build the shade and cover that make the space livable. A pergola gives you open, partial shade and a defined outdoor room, while a patio cover blocks the sun and rain so you can use the patio in any weather. If you're starting from bare ground, we can pour the concrete patio the structure sits on, set the plantings and stonework around it, and handle the drainage so water doesn't pool at the base of your new wall. One crew for the whole project means the pieces fit together instead of getting patched in by different contractors across DFW.
