Welcome to Texas Backyard Living!

We take pride in our work and create value through competitive pricing and unbeatable warranties.
"How did it go? Not well. Sales guy said we did not need replacement and only quoted a repair. When the carpenter showed up and said it needed replaced, not repaired but they could go ahead do the lower deck and fence stain while they were there. I came home that day to find stain dripped down the driveway and splattering my grille and pool cleaner covers ( which were no where near the fence or deck) and the top rail of fence was not stained. I was also peaved that they damaged a hose connection when they apparently used my pool fill hose to spray something down after staining. I contacted Shane and he had Wade the satin guy come out and power wash the stuff off the driveway, but they were not able to remove stains on the grille cover nor the pool cleaner cover. About 10 days later the carpenter returned with the wood to replace the pergola. The carpenter and helper did a good job. They took two days to tear out and replace. Wade returned after a few more days to stain that new wood and touch up scrapes left by the carpenter' ladder. I immediately noticed where parts of the new work did not get stained. With the stain being dark brown and the wood being pressure treated Yella wood it really stood out to me. The unstained areas were easy to reach and easy to see from the deck. It looked like he just forgot to hit those spots. I reported that to TBS. The admin assistant said she would speak with crew and the owner and get back to me. Two or three days after no response I contacted the office as they were sending final invoice for the work again. The lady I spoke with had Wade call me and he explained that he was going to take care of the grille cover and touch up work. I explained that it needed to be done ASAP and I was not happy that they left me in the dark thinking they were not going to follow up. He said he would not be back anytime soon as I was 2 hours from his house, but could return the following week. A couple days later I got the invoice notification again and i contacted them to say I can pay the invoice when they get the work completed or they can pay me $350 to finish it for them. A week went by before I got a reply that said the owner would like to accept my offer to finish it myself. So, I had to go buy some Behr and brushes and finish it after all. Now I'm left feeling that this contractor lacks quality control. If the sales guy came out after the work and sort of inspected it with the crew before trying to collect the invoice they would probably catch this stuff themselves and prevent the back and forth BS we endured. If they knew somebody was coming out to QC their work they might be more careful. And yes, I did contact Rocky. He said the hose they damaged was old and rotted anyway ( like that was the issue) and claimed I did not give them a chance to make it right. I guess it's too late now. caveat emptor"

"Expo Home did a fantastic job from beginning to end. Maurice our sales representative came to our home and very thoughtfully walked us through everything. He helped us to make a difficult and expensive purchase decision. The contract was signed Friday evening and the work was completed by Thursday afternoon. The installers Ricardo and Omar arrived promptly on install day morning at 8am and worked quickly to do all the work by 4pm. They respected our home and kept work areas clean with tarps. Omar especially kept me informed of the progress of the project throughout the day. Ricardo as the lead installer was very skilled in performing the work and knowledgeable about all the details of the project.

FAQs for guest house building service projects in North Richland Hills, TX
In most states, yes—you can build a guest house, but every city or county sets its own zoning rules and building codes. Before breaking ground, check local ordinances, confirm lot setbacks, and secure the right permits. A local contractor or design-build firm can walk you through the paperwork and site requirements so your project starts on solid legal footing.
Yes—homeowners often tap a few different financing tools. A home-equity line of credit (HELOC) lets you borrow against your equity as you need funds. If you prefer a lump sum tied directly to the project, a short-term construction loan can roll into a second mortgage once the build is complete. Cash-out refinancing is another option: you replace your current mortgage with a larger one and use the difference to cover construction costs.
When you build a guest house, you’re creating a separate structure for hosting visitors without the full amenities needed for permanent living. An accessory dwelling unit, however, includes a complete kitchen and bathroom, meeting building codes for a long-term residence. This key difference makes an ADU ideal for long-term occupancy or rental income, adding enduring value to your property.
How many rooms you need depends on how you plan to use the space. Aim for one bedroom per every one or two occupants to make sure everyone has enough privacy and comfort. Added living and dining areas give you extra functionality, especially for rental use or long-term stays.
Most homeowners pick somewhere between 600 and 1,500 square feet to fit all the essentials. Make sure your design supports one to two occupants per bedroom and includes enough common areas for comfortable daily living. A well-proportioned layout boosts both functionality and property value.
No—a guest house isn’t just a bump-out on your main home. A bump-out is a small extension within an existing room for extra seating or storage. In contrast, you build a guest house as a standalone building with its own foundation and amenities, giving you a fully separate living area that can boost your property’s versatility and value.
