What do Sunnyvale’s one-acre lots change about a backyard plan?
Sunnyvale was incorporated in 1953 with zoning that allowed only single-family houses on one-acre lots, and large lots remain the rule. Backyards here are deeper than in neighboring towns, which gives a project room to breathe. The planning shifts to utility runs, drainage across open ground and, where there is one, keeping well clear of the septic field. A pergola or cover far from the house needs power and sometimes water brought out to it. Think about the walking distance from the kitchen door and the shade through the day before choosing where the structure sits.
How should Lake Ray Hubbard’s wind shape Sunnyvale shade structures?
Sunnyvale lies along Lake Ray Hubbard. Open ground near the water tends to catch more wind, and a deep, open lot gives that wind a long run before it reaches your patio. Shade structures here are anchored accordingly and placed with the breeze in mind. On a lot this size, you also have the option of building a separate structure away from the house, but a cover attached to the house is easier to brace. Ask how the posts are tied to the footings, and which way the open side faces. A structure on open ground also benefits from a plan for how rain runoff leaves the slab.

“Nothing but good things to say about my experience with American Eagle Builders about how they handled the pouring of a new outdoor patio and the enclosure of our existing covered patio. Our salesman, John, was a real delight to work with as was Ashley in the front office. They worked diligently with the city of Arlington to get the building permit approved and were able to start work almost immediately once it was. Our installer, Mike, was was very methodical and took his time to make sure everything was done right. We are extremely pleased with the quality of the work--shown in the photos--and are now waiting on another contractor to put in the wood flooring. Highly recommend this company to others seeking similar work.”

“20+ years ago was the installation of siding and windows. To still be in business says a lot about a company. The way customers are treated is why. I have contacted AEB twice in that time span to have repairs done. Both times they have done fantastic work. Our siding manufacture changed and their staff was able to track down current owner, plus went above and beyond match as close as could to the original, and get the repairs accomplished.”
