Patios, decks, pergolas, retaining walls and outdoor kitchens that turn a backyard into a retreat.
Pflugerville homeowners in Falcon Pointe, Blackhawk and Avalon are turning bare backyards into actual living space, and the reason usually comes down to one thing: nobody wants to stare at cracked, patchy grass all summer. Outdoor living and hardscapes from Corral Bros means a patio, deck, pergola or full outdoor kitchen built to hold up on the black clay that dominates this part of Travis County - ground that swells when it rains and pulls apart into fissures the second the drought sets in.
That clay is the whole ballgame here. A slab or paver base that isn't prepped right will heave and crack within a couple of seasons, so we excavate deeper, compact properly, and use flexible base systems that move with the soil instead of fighting it. In dense subdivisions like Falcon Pointe and the newer builds around Avalon, we also work around tight lot lines, HOA guidelines and drainage easements that older Austin neighborhoods don't have to think about.
Corral Bros is a family-run crew, licensed and insured, and we handle both residential backyards and commercial common areas across Pflugerville. We show up for the on-site estimate, walk the yard with you, and talk through what the ground is actually going to do before we ever pour or set a single paver.

Paver and stone patio cost depends on the square footage, the material you choose, site prep and any walls or features. A simple patio is far more affordable than a full outdoor living space with a kitchen and fire feature. Corral Bros designs to your budget and gives a clear, itemized quote.
Concrete pavers, flagstone and travertine all hold up well to Central Texas heat and storms when installed on a properly compacted base. Pavers are popular because individual units can be lifted and reset if needed, and they resist cracking better than a single poured slab over expansive clay.
Almost always it is the black clay underneath moving with moisture swings. When it isn't excavated and compacted deep enough before the base layer goes down, the slab or paver bed shifts as the clay expands and contracts. Corral Bros builds a proper sub-base for every hardscape in Pflugerville specifically to handle that soil movement, so the patio stays flat for years, not seasons.
It depends on materials, square footage and how much site prep the clay soil requires, so we do not quote blind. Corral Bros offers a free, no-obligation on-site estimate, usually scheduled within 48 hours, where we walk your Pflugerville property and give you real numbers based on what your yard actually needs.
Yes. We build in these neighborhoods regularly and understand common HOA requirements around setbacks, fencing sightlines and approved materials. We can size and design your patio, deck or pergola to fit what your association allows, and we are happy to provide drawings or specs if your HOA needs them for approval.
If your Pflugerville lot has any grade change, a retaining wall often solves two problems at once: it stops erosion and it gives the clay soil somewhere stable to sit instead of sliding or cracking on a slope. We build both structural and seating walls and can tell you during the estimate whether your yard needs one.
Most single-feature projects, like a pergola or a paver patio, run one to two weeks once materials are on site. Full outdoor kitchens with gas, electric or masonry work take longer. Corral Bros gives you a real timeline during the estimate, based on your specific Pflugerville property and scope, not a generic range.
Yes, we build hardscapes and outdoor living spaces for both residential yards and commercial parks around Pflugerville, including walkways, seating walls and shade structures for office and retail sites.
