The genuine article

Most Round Rock patios already have a slab. We work with it.

Walk through Forest Creek, Teravista, or Behrens Ranch and the back patios look the same: a poured concrete slab, a pergola over it, and twenty years of central Texas weather on top. The concrete has hairline cracks. It is stained where the grill sits. It went grey years ago. And in July it is hot enough underfoot that nobody wants to stand on it barefoot.

You do not have to tear it out.

Resin-bound aggregate is the genuine article. It is real, graded natural stone bound in a clear UV-stable resin and troweled over a prepared surface. On most patios, that prepared surface is the concrete slab you already have. We assess it, repair what needs repairing, then resurface it. You get a seamless stone finish without the cost, mess, and week of demolition that a full tear-out brings.

This is not a coating that sits on top and peels. It is a stone surface, several millimetres thick, bound through and through. It reads as Hill Country stone because it is stone.

The material

What a resin-bound patio actually looks like

Picture a tight, even spread of small natural stones, locked together with no visible joints and no grout lines. The surface is continuous from the back door to the edge of the slab. There is a soft sheen from the resin, not a wet plastic gloss. Up close you can see every individual stone. From across the yard it reads as one warm, solid plane.

The color comes from the aggregate blend you pick, not from a dye that fades. The blends that suit a Round Rock backyard read as honeyed limestone and weathered sand: Vuba blends like Savannah, Tuscan, and Alaskan Tundra sit naturally next to limestone veneer, live oak, and native landscaping. They do not fight the architecture. They look like they were always meant to be there.

Because the surface is bound and seamless, there are no joints for weeds to grow through and no expansion gaps to settle into trip edges. It is one piece, and it stays one piece.

Why it works here

Engineered for central Texas.

Cooler underfoot

Dark concrete soaks up the Texas sun and holds it. By mid-afternoon in a 100-degree-plus summer it radiates heat back up at you. A lighter aggregate blend reflects more of that heat and stays measurably cooler to stand on. On a patio you actually use barefoot, that difference is the difference between a usable space and one you avoid from June through September.

It drains, instead of pooling

Round Rock sits in Flash Flood Alley, where central Texas produces more flash floods per square mile than anywhere in North America. A permeable surface rated above 600 litres per square metre per minute lets a downpour drain through the surface and into the ground beneath, instead of sheeting across the slab and standing in low spots. No puddles, no slick film, no mosquito water after the April and May storms.

No joints to settle

Central Texas Blackland clay swells and shrinks dramatically with the wet and dry seasons. That movement is what cracks rigid concrete and tilts paver joints. Resin-bound is laid as a flexible, seamless surface. It does not have the expansion joints and grout lines that fail first. Where the concrete underneath has structural cracks, we repair those before we resurface, so they do not telegraph through.

It handles hail better than the alternatives

Round Rock and Georgetown took 1.5 to 2 inch hail in April 2025, and baseball-sized hail crossed the metro that May. Decorative pavers can crack and chip under a hard hit. A flexible resin-bound surface absorbs impact far better than it pits concrete. We will not oversell this. Your roof and your cars are the real hail exposure. But the patio is one less thing to worry about.

How we estimate

Scoped to your property — not a per-square-foot guess.

We don't publish a per-square-foot number, and we don't send email quotes from a photo. Every estimate starts with an hour on your property, with the owner, looking at the actual sub-base, drainage, edges, and access.

You receive a written, line-itemed scope in your inbox within 48 business hours. It tells you exactly what we'll install, how we'll prep the base, which Vuba aggregate blend we're proposing, and what the warranty covers. No ranges. No upsells on site.

If the job isn't a good fit for resin-bound — failing slab, no drainage path, an HOA we know will reject the system — we'll tell you that on the walk and refer you elsewhere.

Our process

Four steps. Owner on every one.

  1. 01
    Walk the property

    Terry comes out, looks at the slab, measures, and listens to what you want the space to be. One hour, free.

  2. 02
    Scoped estimate in writing

    A fully itemized estimate within 48 hours, with the aggregate blend, the scope, the timeline, and the warranty terms spelled out.

  3. 03
    HOA and prep handling

    If your community needs architectural review, we handle the submission. Then we prep the surface and repair the slab.

  4. 04
    Install and seal

    We lay the resin-bound surface, finish the edges, and seal it. Terry is there for all of it. You get a walk-through, a warranty letter, and a maintenance schedule at the end.

Also see our other resin-bound surfaces: resin-bound driveways and resin-bound pool decks.

Warranty

Three warranties. All in writing.

Manufacturer-backed resin warranty

The UV-stable resin system itself is backed by the manufacturer. The written warranty terms are handed to you at walk-through.

5-year workmanship warranty

Our installation, our labor, our edges and seals, backed by us for 5 years.

Fully insured

$2M general liability and workers' comp insurance behind the work. Texas is the only state that does not require private workers' comp; we carry it anyway so you are never in the liability chain if anyone is hurt on your property. Certificate of insurance on request.

HOA & ARC

A note on HOA approval

Most back-yard patio work does not trigger architectural review. ARC committees in communities like Forest Creek, Behrens Ranch, and Walsh Ranch are mainly concerned with what faces the street: front elevations, driveways, fencing. A patio behind the house is usually outside that. Usually, not always. Some communities review any exterior modification, and a few have specific rules about hardscape and drainage. We check your community's CC&Rs as part of scoping the job. If your patio does need ARC approval, we write the submission, supply the aggregate samples, and answer the committee's questions. We schedule the install after approval is in writing, never before.
