Lone Star State Bank

This is a pavilion we recently built at the new Lone Star State Bank on Milwaukee Ave just south of Spur 327.  The bank has a rustic style of architecture that fits right in with the type of projects we specialize in!

This pavilion will be a great place for the employees to eat their lunch on a beautiful day.  It is also an inviting place to take a break outdoors.

The pavilion is designed to compliment the style of the bank with western red cedar as the primary construction material.  A stone veneer was used to accentuate the columns and the roof is a standing seam galvalume.  The handrail around the pavilion separates the area from the hustle and bustle around.  All these elements combine to create a naturally appealing escape.

We also contributed several elements of the structure and interior of the bank.  The most impressive of which is the trusses and ceiling in the main lobby that will astound and impress as soon as you enter the building.  The trusses and ceiling are western red cedar reminiscent of the outdoor pavilion.  We also used a rustic antique oak to finish the ceilings in the entry vestibule as well as the main teller area.

I would encourage you to stop by and take a look at the beautiful architecture displayed at Lone Star State Bank and meet some of the friendly employees while you are there!

Bold and Bulky Pergola in Amarillo

Our Website Rustic Outdoor Escapes

We built this pergola at a house in a new subdivision in southwest Amarillo.  The house had an existing back patio but it just wasn't big enough for entertaining or relaxing the way the family wanted to.  The solution was to extend the concrete patio and build a Bold and Bulky pergola!

Our Bold and Bulky option consists of massive 8" x 8" cedar posts, huge 6" x 12" cedar beams, 4" x 8" rafters and 4" x 4" stripping for shade.  Everything on this pergola is over sized to give it that really substantial look.  This is a great option to go with to make a statement that will set your outdoor living area apart.  On this particular pergola we added the Premium option to the posts that add the finishing touch.

Please enjoy the pictures of the completed project and make sure to visit our website Rustic Outdoor Escapes. 
Remember, winter is a great time to get started on your outdoor escape so that you can be enjoying it this spring!

Sideyard Pergola in Vintage Township in South Lubbock

Our Website Rustic Outdoor Escapes


This project was completed for Steve Hill Homes who is one of the builders we contract for.  He built a very nice home for his clients in Vintage Township.  Even though their yard isn't very big they still wanted to enjoy the outdoors.

Steve was able to create a design that provides a nice shaded area without taking up the very valuable space in the smaller area.  By using posts only on one side of the pergola they still have an open area to enjoy. 

Please enjoy the pictures of the completed pergola.  Visit our website for more info!

Back Porch Deck connecting to roof in Central Lubbock - Part 2

Our Website Rustic Outdoor Escapes


This nice home in Tech Terrace area of Lubbock had an existing door from the second story out to the flat roof but there was no way for them to utilize the area.  We were able to build a deck for them to go out on and a set of stairs connecting to the back porch deck.

This deck is a great way for them to get some fresh air and enjoy the area out on their roof.  We also added a handrail around the deck for safety.  There was previously nothing from keeping anyone from going to the edge of the roof.  The handrail is made of redwood posts and rails with composite balusters.  The redwood was used to help keep the cost down and the composite balusters compliment the deck as well as keeping the rail low maintenance.

The stairs make it easier to get from one part of the house to another.  The stairs also enlarge the area that can be used in the backyard without having to go through the house, which is especially nice when having a lot of guests for a backyard BBQ.

Back Porch Deck and Cedar Roof Extension in Central Lubbock - Part 1

Our website  Rustic Outdoor Escapes


This is a nice add-on to a home in Tech Terrace.  The owners didn't have much of an area to enjoy in their backyard so we created an area for them to relax by adding on a composite deck with a cedar roof above. 

The composite deck is a great choice because of the extremely low maintenance.  It never needs to be stained or sealed and feels really nice on bare feet (no splinters!).  All you need to do to clean it is sweep it off or spray it with the water hose.  Composite decks will last many years longer than a traditional wood deck without the hassle.

The cedar roof extension is a really nice touch to keep out the heat and rain.  The roof extension will also lower their energy costs in the summer by keeping the sunlight from coming in the bay window.  The view of the cedar from under the porch completes the look and gives them the ability to enjoy the outdoors on a sunny or rainy afternoon.

Classic Pergola in South Lubbock

Our Website Rustic Outdoor Escapes


This is a unique pergola built in the Orchard Park subdivision located at 109th and Quaker Ave in south Lubbock.  This was built for a home still under construction which is great way to ensure the pergola will be ready for use as soon as the home is ready to move in.

This pergola has the classic round Tuscan columns that were painted to match the exterior trim of the home.  It also features the large beams and rafters that really add to the classic style.  The best thing about this pergola is that while it is simple it is also very elegant.

Beautiful Pergola and Pavilion outside Lubbock, TX

Our Website - Rustic Outdoor Escapes

This was a really fun project in Idalou, Tx just outside Lubbock that included several different design options.  The customer wanted a pergola to cover approximately two thirds of their patio and a full roof over the other third to cover a spa.  We were able to incorporate this all into the same structure and it turned out awesome!

All of the posts on this structure were complemented with the full trim package.  The pergola has 2x2's across the rafters to give more strength and shade.  The rafter lengths were cut to match the arch of the patio extension below.

The pavilion over the spa has a gable roof with cedar trusses at both ends.  It also has exposed cedar rafters and decking. It was shingled to match the existing roof.  One really nice feature of this pavilion are the privacy louvers we added on two sides which also provide extra shade for those hot summer days.
