What do Mesquite’s ranch-era houses need first?
Mesquite grew explosively after World War II, and a lot of its housing is 1950s-to-1970s ranch style on flat lots with dated infrastructure. Houses of that age often still have original windows, thin attic insulation and tired siding. Replacement windows and attic insulation are the common starting points, because the comfort inside changes the most. Outdoor projects can follow once the shell of the house is sound and the old gutters have been looked at.
Why does Mesquite’s tree canopy shape a patio cover?
Mesquite takes its name from Mesquite Creek and has long been named a Tree City USA. On old, flat lots that means mature trees close to the house. Where an older oak survives, it is an asset: its root zone is marked before any digging, and its shade goes into the layout. Big shade trees, narrow side gates and aging utility lines are common, so crew access gets checked at the first visit.
Does Duck Creek’s floodplain reach a Mesquite backyard?
Duck Creek and its floodplain cut across Mesquite, so some backyards may sit nearer the floodplain than they appear. Checking the flood maps early is a good habit before any patio slab is placed. Flat lots also drain slowly, so how rain leaves the yard matters even away from the creek. The city’s Building Inspection office decides what a job needs, and it is the right place to ask before anything is poured.

“First of all I would like to thank Phil Ehinger for coming out to our home and going over the details of the work this company would be doing per our request. Both the Patio Cover and the Door Installation contractors were great. They were very professional and answered any questions we had regarding the work they were doing. They cleaned up after themselves and made sure our dogs would not step on anything that would hurt them. We have already had a couple of neighbors ask about your company doing windows and have referred them to give you guys a call. We will most likely call again later about doing the rest of the windows in our home. P.S. Our kids and grandkids love coming to visit us with this new outdoor patio area.”

“I was so concerned about how the new windows were going to replace the old ones. But when the men got here, they made me feel assured that everything was going to work out. And it did, they were great, covered everything and cleaned it all up. Then they even put my things back on the shelves. I never expected that. So don't worry they know what they're doing and do a great job. You will be happy with their work. To top it off they were friendly and respectful.”
