Learn MoreAs many of our fellow Texas residents will attest to, the exterior of your property is largely responsible for the first and last impression a guest is greeted with when they visit your home. Whether it's an immaculately manicured lawn, resplendent with colorful flowers and a vibrant lawn that is sure or a sprawling patio bedecked with comfortable seating and a full-service outdoor kitchen, the options for leaving a lasting positive impression are limited to the imagination of the homeowner and efficacy of their contractor.
During our storied tenure as one of the local authorities for exterior/outdoor-related services (such as exterior remodeling or outdoor renovations) here in Texas, we've had many opportunities to work with many different customers and homeowners on a wealth of improvement-oriented projects for their home's exterior features. We've embraced that the exterior elements and the outdoor amenities play a very significant role in not only how the property is received but also how it is valued overall; both aesthetically and monetarily.
A homeowner's property (and by default, their property's exterior) is generally an extension of the owner themself and largely reflects their tastes, preferences, and particulars. When endeavoring to improve certain aspects of their property's exterior, it can be a challenge to incorporate every detail or addition without impeding the project's progress or overlooking pertinent information for many local property owners. In light of that, we are proud to be a local resource for homeowners seeking to revamp, revitalize, or reinvigorate their property's exterior elements, outdoor amenities, and outside features. Being that local exterior-service resource often entails many different capacities/roles that we are tasked with fulfilling that typically includes: outdoor kitchens, exterior new construction/remodeling, patios, porches, gazebos, pergolas, swimming pools, pavers, and landscaping-based services.
Permitting depends on the city where the property sits, and most Collin County cities require permits for exterior structural or weather-barrier work. Check your city’s adopted codes and permit lists before starting to avoid delays or rework.
Collin County cities commonly adopt the International Codes with local amendments, so we build to those standards plus any city-specific rules. We verify the exact edition and amendments at permit time to ensure inspection-ready compliance.
Yes—Texas law requires contacting 811 before excavation so underground utilities can be located and marked. We handle the notification and scheduling to keep your project safe and compliant.
For pre-1978 homes, we follow the EPA’s Renovation, Repair and Painting (RRP) Rule, using certified personnel and lead-safe practices. This protects your family, neighbors, and our crews while meeting federal requirements.
Typical inspections include permit issuance, in-progress checks where applicable, and a final inspection for completion and code compliance. We schedule and meet inspectors, then close out punch-list items rapidly.

“We had Miles build on a front porch, sunroom, master suite addition, fire pit with seating, and pool deck—beautiful results we enjoy constantly. Miles was a joy to work with from beginning to end and always answers my call.”
“Extremely happy with the custom pool, deck, and built-in grill—this is our second pool with Ortus and the quality is fantastic. The design attention to detail and ability to customize to our needs were huge wins.”
“Three months after completion, our backyard oasis with new pool/spa decking, patio, and outdoor kitchen is still making us smile. As with any big project, there were a few issues—and Ortus solved them.”
“We bought a home with an Ortus-built outdoor kitchen & patio and it’s been fantastic; this year Ortus also refurbished a large older pool and deck. Great workmanship and easy to maintain.”
“Ortus fixed my deck and performed soil injections; the team was quick, professional, and thorough. They reset and leveled pavers and sealed around the pool.”
“After two years of research, we chose Ortus—Miles and team exceeded our expectations. Our backyard is now enjoyable, functional, and beautiful.”
