GARLAND, TX – February 24, 2026 – PRESSADVANTAGE –
Keathley Landscaping, a Dallas-based landscape design and installation company, emphasizes the growing importance of custom-built outdoor structures as homeowners increasingly seek to maximize their outdoor living spaces throughout the year. The company specializes in designing and constructing tailored patio solutions that transform ordinary backyards into functional extensions of the home.
As outdoor living continues to trend upward across North Texas, homeowners are discovering that patio covers and pergolas serve as more than decorative elements. These structures provide essential shade during intense summer months while creating defined outdoor rooms that can be enjoyed regardless of weather conditions. The investment in these custom structures has shown to increase both property values and daily enjoyment of outdoor spaces.
“The demand for quality outdoor structures has grown significantly as families spend more time at home and recognize the value of comfortable outdoor spaces,” said Logan Keathley, owner of Keathley Landscaping. “We design each structure to complement the existing architecture while addressing specific needs, whether that means creating a shaded dining area, establishing an outdoor workspace, or building a relaxation zone that can be used throughout the seasons.”
Custom-built structures offer distinct advantages over prefabricated options. Each design takes into account the unique characteristics of the property, including sun exposure patterns, prevailing winds, and existing landscape features. The construction process involves careful material selection to ensure durability against Texas weather extremes, from scorching summers to occasional winter freezes. Cedar and treated lumber remain popular choices for their natural resistance to insects and decay, while aluminum and steel options provide maximum longevity with minimal maintenance requirements.
The integration of these structures into existing landscapes requires expertise in both design and construction. Proper foundation work ensures stability, while thoughtful positioning maximizes both shade coverage and aesthetic appeal. Many homeowners choose to incorporate additional features such as ceiling fans, lighting systems, or retractable shade elements to enhance functionality.
“Every project starts with understanding how the family intends to use their outdoor space,” added Keathley. “Some clients want an entertainment hub for hosting gatherings, while others seek a quiet retreat for morning coffee. The versatility of custom designs allows us to create exactly what each homeowner envisions.”
Beyond the immediate benefits of shade and weather protection, these structures contribute to improved curb appeal and neighborhood aesthetics. Well-designed outdoor structures create visual interest and architectural depth that distinguish properties in the real estate market. The return on investment typically exceeds that of many interior renovations, particularly in regions where outdoor living is possible for most of the year.
Keathley Landscaping has served the Dallas metropolitan area since 2002, providing comprehensive landscape design and installation services. The company offers a full range of outdoor improvements including landscape lighting, drainage solutions, stonework, outdoor kitchens, and custom fence installation. Their team combines traditional craftsmanship with modern design principles to create outdoor environments that enhance both lifestyle and property value throughout Dallas, Plano, Frisco, Allen, McKinney, and surrounding communities.
