Backyard Projects We Design and Build

One Contractor for the Whole Backyard, Not Three
A real outdoor living project usually means a fence guy, a deck guy, a concrete guy, and someone for the gas line. We’re all of it, in one business, with one project manager on every job. If you’re already planning a bathroom or kitchen remodel, we can fold the outdoor work into the same project.
Designed and Built Together
No more "the deck guy says ask the fence guy." We design the full project up front so every piece works together. Then we build it as a single project on a single timeline.
You Talk to the Owner
Our cleaning agents are safe for your landscaping, pets, and the surrounding environment.
All Trades In-House
Concrete, framing, gas, electrical, fencing, finishing. Handled by one crew on one project timeline. No three-week gaps between trades, no scheduling conflicts between subcontractors.
1-Year Workmanship Warranty
We walk your property and give you an exact price before we turn on the equipment.

From First Walk-Through to Final Backyard
Every outdoor living project follows the same four phases. Design first, written quote, full build, final walkthrough. One contractor through every phase, no handoffs.
Real Results. Real DFW Homeowners.
See what homeowners across Allen, Frisco, and McKinney are saying about their power washing experience with JD Ventures Builds.
“I put off getting the house washed for years because I was worried about damage to the paint and siding. JD Ventures explained their soft-wash approach upfront, gave me an exact price, and completed the whole job in about four hours. The difference is absolutely night and day — the house looks brand new. Already recommended them to three neighbors this week.”
“We were getting ready to list our house and wanted everything looking sharp. JD Ventures did the house, driveway, back patio, and fence in one day. The realtor was shocked at how much cleaner everything looked — said it added real perceived value. These guys are efficient, professional, and the results speak for themselves.”
“Our back deck had years of built-up grime and the fence looked terrible. We’d tried renting a pressure washer ourselves and it just wasn’t the same. JD Ventures used the right pressure and solution for our wood deck — didn’t strip the grain at all — and the fence looks like it was just installed. Booked them for a spring clean every year going forward.”
Outdoor Living FAQs
Questions about scope, timeline, design, and how the whole project comes together? Here’s what we get asked most. Still have questions? Call us. We’d rather walk through it than send a generic answer.
How long does it take to build a backyard project in Allen, TX?
Timelines depend on the scope. A new privacy fence is typically 2-5 days. A custom deck or patio runs 1-3 weeks. A full backyard build with multiple structures and an outdoor kitchen can take 6-10 weeks including design and permitting. We give a realistic timeline in writing as part of every quote.
Do I need a permit for a fence, deck, or pergola in Allen?
Most fences over 8 feet, all decks attached to a home, and most pergolas in Allen require a permit through the City of Allen. Outdoor kitchens with gas or electrical run-ins almost always require permits. We pull all required permits as part of our project scope. You don’t file paperwork, we do.
Can you design my backyard, or do I need a separate designer?
We design as part of the build. The free design consultation walks your yard, talks through what’s possible, and produces a written design quote with material and layout recommendations. You don’t need to hire a separate landscape architect for most outdoor living projects.
What materials do you use for decks and pergolas?
For decks, we work with cedar, pressure-treated pine, and composite decking depending on your budget and preference. For pergolas, cedar is the most common material in DFW for its weather resistance and natural look, though we also build aluminum and steel structures. We walk through material tradeoffs during the design consultation.
Do you handle gas and electrical for outdoor kitchens?
Yes. Outdoor kitchens with built-in grills, side burners, refrigerators, or lighting need gas, water, and electrical run-ins coordinated with the build. We handle all the trades in-house, which means the kitchen is designed with the run-ins planned from day one, not retrofitted after the fact.
What areas do you serve for outdoor living projects?
We serve the entire DFW Metroplex, with most of our outdoor living volume in Collin County. Regular service areas include Allen, McKinney, Plano, Frisco, Richardson, Garland, and surrounding suburbs. Call us to confirm availability in your specific neighborhood.
Can you tie outdoor living work into a kitchen or bathroom remodel?
Yes, and many of our larger projects start this way. If you’re remodeling your kitchen or doing a whole-home update, the outdoor space can be designed and built as part of the same project under one contract. One contractor, one timeline, one final walkthrough.
When is the best time of year to build outdoor living projects in DFW?
Spring and fall are the most popular seasons because of the moderate weather, but we build year-round. Concrete pours need at least 40°F and dry conditions, but framing and finishing work continues even through DFW winters. The earlier you book in the spring, the more flexibility you’ll have on schedule.
