Durable paver and stone patios built on engineered bases that last.
A paver patio in Manor needs to handle east-side blackland clay and the heavy rains that come with our prairie weather. These subdivisions are going up fast-ShadowGlen, Whisper Valley, Stonewater-and new construction homes sit on soil that shifts and compacts unevenly. A properly engineered base and drainage-aware layout keep your patio from settling, cracking, or pooling water. That's where Corral Bros comes in. We excavate to the right depth, build a compacted foundation that works with Manor's clay, and choose your stone or pavers so they'll stay level and beautiful for twenty years or more.
Every patio we build starts with a site visit where we read your yard's slope and drainage patterns. Manor's terrain dictates everything: we know which parts of your property stay wet longer, where runoff flows, and how deep we need to dig to get below the active clay layer. Then we talk materials. Travertine, flagstone, clay pavers, concrete pavers-each has trade-offs in heat, durability, and cost that matter in our Texas summer. We're licensed and insured, and we work residential and commercial throughout the I-35 corridor.

No obligation, no pressure. You'll get a clear picture of what your patio will look like, what it'll cost, and how we'll build it to last in Manor's soil and climate.
We're a local, family-built company that treats your Manor property like our own — tidy crews, clear pricing, and paver patios that holds up to Travis County conditions. Available as a one-time project or part of an ongoing plan.
Paver patio cost depends on the square footage, the paver or stone you choose, site prep, and any walls, steps or drainage. A simple patio is far more affordable than a large multi-level space. Corral Bros designs to your budget and gives a clear, itemized quote.
Pavers often outperform a poured slab over Central Texas expansive clay because individual units flex with soil movement and can be lifted and reset, while a slab is prone to cracking. Pavers also offer more design options and easier repairs.
We excavate four to six inches minimum, depending on your soil and drainage needs. Manor's blackland clay requires us to go deeper than sandy ground elsewhere in Texas-we dig until we hit stable subgrade, then build a compacted base of crushed limestone and sand. This keeps the clay from heaving or settling under the weight, which is especially critical in the new subdivisions where fill and native soil can mix unevenly.
Yes, if we slope and drain it right from the start. We lay every patio with a slight grade away from your home and borders, and we use polymeric sand between pavers that locks them in place while letting water pass through to the base. In Manor, where the prairie holds water naturally, proper site grading keeps your patio from becoming a pond.
Costs depend on size, materials, and site conditions. Manor lots vary widely-some are flat, others slope toward the back. We give a free no-obligation on-site estimate, usually within 48 hours. We'll measure, discuss your material options, and provide a clear price before you decide. Call 737-404-9343 to schedule.
Concrete cracks and stains in our Texas heat, and once it cracks, it's expensive to replace. Pavers and flagstone are individual units-if one settles or cracks, you replace just that stone. They also stay cooler underfoot, look better, and add more home value in Manor's competitive new-construction market.
With proper base and installation, twenty years or more. Manor's cycle of wet springs and hot, dry summers puts stress on outdoor surfaces, but an engineered base prevents settling, and quality pavers resist freeze-thaw damage. We build our patios to outlast the homes they're attached to.
