Our Work

Backyards We Handed Over This Season

Every photo is a Olympus Projects job site — our design, our base prep, our crew.

A Finished Backyard, Reviewed
Landscaping

Turf, Rock Beds & Full Yard Makeovers

Premium artificial turf, dry creek beds, decorative rock, drought-tolerant planting, edging and path lighting — graded and drained so the whole yard stays clean year-round.

“They rebuilt the whole backyard and it came out better than the 3D preview. Crew was here every morning on time and the yard was spotless when they left.”
Michelle R.Katy · Harris County
Concrete Work

Poured Concrete Driveways & Walkways

Full-depth prep, rebar and proper joint layout — broom, smooth or stamped finishes poured by our own crew.

Straight From the Homeowner
Decks & Pergolas

Composite & Cedar Decks, Built to Last

Engineered framing, hidden fasteners and low-maintenance composite or real cedar — with cable rail, step lighting and built-in benches.

Written review customer
Verified Google review
“They built a beautiful deck around our pool and it completely changed how we use the backyard. Solid underfoot, no wobble, and two summers later it still looks new. The written price never moved.”
Sophie R.Sugar Land · Fort Bend County
Patio Covers & Sunrooms

Shade, Lighting & Screened Living Space

Solid and lattice patio covers, adjustable louvered pergolas, poolside cabanas and screened sunrooms — engineered, permitted, and wired for recessed lights and fans.

Real Project, Real Feedback
Custom Pools & Spas

Custom Pools, Spas & Water Features Built for Houston Backyards

Freeform and geometric custom pools, raised tile spas, tanning ledges, sheer descents, bubblers and fire bowls — engineered for Gulf Coast soil, with the deck, coping and drainage built by the same in-house crew.

Manufacturer-certified paver and wall systems — plus the review platforms homeowners check first.

Where Homeowners Rate Us

Retaining & Block Walls

Engineered Retaining Walls That Hold the Hill

Poured footings, rebar and grouted cells, gravel drainage and proper backfill — block, segmental and capped walls built to permit and built to stay straight.

Written review customer
Verified Google review
“Our old retaining wall was cracked and leaning — honestly scary. They knocked the whole thing down and rebuilt a beautiful new wall with proper drainage behind it, so nothing washes out anymore. The house looks so much better, it’s finally safe, and we gained a flat, usable yard we actually spend time in. Crew showed up on time and cleaned up daily.”
Emily T.The Woodlands · Montgomery County
Outdoor Kitchens & BBQ Islands

Built-In Grills, Bars & Quartz Countertops

Framed with steel and cement board, finished in stone veneer, stucco or quartz — with built-in grills, side burners, sinks, refrigerators and bar seating, plumbed, gassed and wired to code.

The Homeowner’s Verdict
Fences & Gates

Privacy, Curb Appeal & Secure Entry

Vinyl privacy and picket fencing, composite slat panels, wrought iron, and custom steel driveway gates with keypad or remote access — set on solid footings so they stay square and plumb for years.

Written review customer
Verified Google review
“New fence all the way around the property, posts set in concrete and dead straight. Gates still swing perfectly and the yard finally feels private.”
Michael B.League City · Galveston County
Pavers

Paver Patios, Driveways & Walkways

Belgard and Angelus pavers set on a compacted, properly drained base with polymeric sand joints and concrete edge restraint — laid to hold their line for decades, not seasons.

Common Questions

Straight Answers, Before You Call

How much does my project cost?

Every project is priced individually — and the quote is always free. A specialist visits, measures your space, walks you through the material options that fit your budget, and gives you a clear written price. With our best-price guarantee, you’ll know you’re not overpaying.

How fast can you start my project?

Often very quickly — smaller projects can sometimes start within days. Larger builds take a little longer to schedule, and that is usually a good sign: your project may need city permits or HOA approval, a materials order, or equipment reserved so the whole job stays with our own crew. Call us with your address and we’ll give you a real start date.

How long does the work take?

Most residential projects take a few days, depending on size and complexity. Larger builds take longer — you’ll get a clear timeline with your quote, and the crew cleans up completely before they leave.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes — Olympus Projects is licensed, bonded and insured in Texas, and we’re a family-owned business with over 15 years of experience. We pull permits when the scope calls for it and we’re happy to show our certificates before any work starts.

How long will the finished work last?

Decades, when it’s built properly. Proper excavation, a compacted base, edge restraints and real drainage details are what keep hardscape from shifting, sinking or heaving. Your work is backed by our written warranty, plus manufacturer coverage on the materials.

Can I choose the materials, style and color?

Absolutely — there’s a huge range of pavers, stone, concrete finishes, pebbles and turf to choose from. During your free consultation we bring samples to your door and help you pick the look that fits your home and your budget.

Will it hold up in Houston’s climate?

Yes. Every build includes proper excavation, a compacted aggregate base and drainage details designed for our heat, sun and soil — that’s the part nobody sees and the reason the work still looks right years later.

Can I pay over time?

Yes — we offer interest-free financing for up to 24 months on approved credit. Get your project done now and spread the cost with no interest. Ask for full terms with your free quote.

Which areas do you serve?

Harris, Sugar Land, Pearland, Pasadena, League City, Baytown, Cypress, Katy and Spring — with our own crews, never subcontracted labor.

What happens after I request a quote?

We call you back the same day, confirm a time to walk the space, measure and show material options, then send the full scope and price in writing before anything gets scheduled.

Will you leave a mess?

No — cleanup is part of every job, not an extra. We protect work areas before we start, haul away the old material and debris, and leave your property spotless. It’s one of the things our reviews mention most.
