  • out of 5 stars

    Very impressed. We reached out to Walker from a recommendation of a neighbor based on their positive experience & quality of the fencing. Our initial fence company installed our fence poorly so the gate didn't open & the rain streamed out of the yard taking out two bushes. Walker evaluated the fence and yard asking questions then offered a couple of suggestions. Not only did he correct the fence bottom plank issues but he redesigned a portion of the fence so we could easily reach a faucet. I'm only bummed that we didn't call him first. There were designs we could have put in place that our initial fence company wasn't possible.

    OMG - Blown away with Kevin’s work, professionalism, and ability to not only finish my outdoor remodel on budget but ahead of schedule. I not only recommend him to my friends but can also say he has restored my faith in contractors in general.

Frequently asked questions

FAQ image
How does Walker Custom Exteriors handle the specific challenges of North Texas soil and weather?

Most exterior failures in DFW are caused by shifting clay soil and extreme heat. We engineer our projects to survive these conditions—using reinforced steel frames for driveway gates to prevent sagging, and advanced drainage systems for patios and retaining walls to protect your foundation. We build for longevity, not just for the initial look.

Do you handle small repairs, or only full custom installations?

We specialize in both high-end new construction and structural restoration. Whether you need an artisan stone feature built from scratch or a leaning fence professionally stabilized and restored, we apply the same level of engineering and precision. Our goal is to provide a luxury, custom result without the inflated overhead of a massive design firm.

What materials do you recommend for the best balance of luxury and durability?

We prioritize sustainable, high-performance materials like Western Red Cedar for its natural resistance to rot, and eco-friendly composites for low-maintenance decks. By pairing these with professional-grade hardware and structural steel where necessary, we ensure your outdoor space remains beautiful and functional for decades with minimal upkeep.

How do your prices compare to "big-box" contractors or high-end design firms?

We occupy the sweet spot between the two. Unlike "big-box" crews, we provide artisan-level craftsmanship and engineered solutions tailored to your property. Unlike large design firms, we maintain a lean operation with low overhead. This allows us to deliver a premium, luxury product and a personalized experience without the inflated markups often found in the high-end market.

What does the typical project timeline look like from estimate to completion?

Transparency is key to our process. After your initial quote, we provide a clear start date and an estimated construction window. While timelines vary based on the complexity of the masonry or custom woodwork, we prioritize a "clean-site" policy—meaning we work efficiently to minimize disruption to your home and ensure the job site is spotless every evening until the project is finished.

How do you handle wood "graying" or weathering in the Texas sun?

All natural wood will eventually weather, but we minimize this by using high-grade Western Red Cedar and professional-grade sealants. Cedar contains natural oils that resist rot and insects, making it the most sustainable choice for our climate. We provide guidance on staining and maintenance schedules to ensure your deck or fence maintains its premium "new-build" look for as long as possible.

Do you handle the permitting and utility locates for new structures?

Yes. We take a "turn-key" approach to our projects. For any new structural build—whether it’s a retaining wall, a large deck, or a masonry feature—we handle the necessary utility locates (811) and work within local building codes. Our goal is to make the process as seamless as possible for the homeowner while ensuring everything is legally and structurally sound.

Why is proper site grading and drainage included in your patio and masonry quotes?

In Dallas, water is the number one enemy of hardscapes. Many contractors skip detailed grading to lower their bid, but this leads to cracked stone and foundation issues within a few seasons. We include professional drainage analysis in every Artisan Patio and Masonry project to ensure water moves away from your home, protecting your investment for the long haul.

Is your synthetic turf and wood treatment safe for pets and children?

Absolutely. We exclusively use non-toxic, lead-free synthetic turf with cooling technology designed for the Texas sun. For our wood structures, we use high-grade cedar, which is naturally rot-resistant, reducing the need for heavy chemical treatments. Sustainability for us means creating an environment that is safe for your family and durable for the DFW climate.

I have a vision for my backyard but don't have a blueprint. Can you help with the design?

Yes. We specialize in Custom Landscape Design and Outdoor Planning. We don't just "show up and build"; we walk through your property with you to discuss flow, privacy, and structural requirements. Whether it's a 3D conceptual layout or a hand-drawn plan, we ensure that the finished product perfectly reflects your lifestyle and home's architecture.
