Your backyard should be more than just grass and a fence—it should be a place to relax, entertain, and enjoy.

If you're considering an upgrade, a custom patio is one of the smartest and most impactful investments you can make.

At Salas Outdoors, we specialize in patio design and installation that’s built around your lifestyle, your space, and your vision.

Here’s why a custom patio may be the best improvement you can make to your outdoor living space.

1. Extend Your Living Space

A well-designed patio acts as a natural extension of your home—giving you an outdoor area to eat, relax, or entertain.

Benefits:

  • Outdoor dining or lounge area
  • Seamless indoor-to-outdoor flow
  • Year-round usable space with covers or pergolas

✅ Salas Outdoors works with your layout to design custom patios that fit your home and needs.

2. Increase Your Home’s Value

A custom patio isn’t just a personal upgrade—it’s a smart financial move.

According to real estate experts, outdoor living areas can boost property value by 8–12%, especially in regions like Texas where outdoor space is usable most of the year.

✅ A professionally installed patio by Salas Outdoors enhances both curb appeal and resale potential.

3. Create a Functional Entertainment Area

Whether it’s summer BBQs, birthday parties, or a quiet night with a fire pit, patios give you a space to host comfortably.

Design elements to consider:

  • Built-in seating
  • Outdoor kitchens or grilling stations
  • Lighting for evening use
  • Weather-resistant furniture zones

✅ We design fully customized patios tailored to how you want to use the space—social, relaxing, or a little of both.

4. Reduce Lawn Maintenance

A larger patio means less yard work.

Cut down your grass and landscaping maintenance by replacing part of your yard with:

  • Pavers
  • Stonework
  • Stamped concrete
  • Gravel and hardscape features

✅ Salas Outdoors integrates low-maintenance patio designs that help homeowners save time and energy.

5. Personalize to Match Your Home’s Aesthetic

Patios don’t have to be plain concrete slabs. Your outdoor space can reflect your taste and style.

Material options include:

  • Natural stone
  • Brick or pavers
  • Stamped or stained concrete
  • Gravel with edging

✅ Salas Outdoors helps you choose colors, textures, and finishes that match your home’s design for a cohesive look.

6. Increase Privacy and Comfort

Want to create a private outdoor escape? A custom patio can include:

  • Pergolas or covered structures
  • Privacy walls or fencing
  • Planters with tall greenery
  • Strategic lighting and ambiance

✅ We design patios that offer comfort, beauty, and seclusion, all in one functional space.

7. Built for the Texas Climate

Heat, sun, and storms—Texas weather is tough on outdoor spaces.

That’s why we use:

  • Durable, weather-resistant materials
  • Proper seals and coatings
  • Shading solutions for comfort
  • Expert construction techniques that last

✅ Salas Outdoors builds Texas-tough patios that can withstand the elements for years to come.
