Outdoor Living Spaces in Dallas–Fort Worth
Outdoor kitchens, pergolas, fire features, and patios that complete your backyard.
Lucent Pools designs and builds outdoor kitchens, pergolas, fire pits, and covered patios across Dallas–Fort Worth. We plan them with the pool so the space works through the Texas seasons.
Designed to beat the Texas heat
Our summers are long, so we design outdoor living spaces that stay usable all day. Covered patios and pergolas provide shade during 100-degree afternoons, while fire features and outdoor heaters extend your evenings well into the cooler months. The goal is a backyard you actually use year-round, not just in spring.
Outdoor kitchens built for entertaining
From built-in grills and smokers to bar seating, refrigeration, and pizza ovens, we build outdoor kitchens with grill, seating, and storage. Durable stone and stainless construction stands up to the Texas climate.
One cohesive backyard, designed together
When your pool, decking, kitchen, and shade structures are designed as a single project, everything flows. We coordinate materials, sightlines, and lighting so your entire backyard feels intentional, whether we're building it alongside a new pool or adding to an existing one.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you build outdoor living spaces without a pool?
Yes. While many of our clients combine outdoor living with a new pool, we also design and build standalone outdoor kitchens, pergolas, patios, and fire features for existing backyards across DFW.
What does an outdoor kitchen cost in Dallas–Fort Worth?
Outdoor kitchens vary widely based on size and appliances, from compact grill stations to full chef setups with refrigeration and bar seating. We'll scope a design to your budget during a free consultation.
What materials hold up in the Texas climate?
We favor natural stone, stucco, travertine, and stainless steel for their durability against intense sun, heat, and soil movement through the year common in North Texas.
