Tuscan Trowel Resurfacing

This new estate home has rolling terrain that drops off sharply towards the back and right side. So, to create a multi-featured backyard, Betz designed a series of terraces on five descending levels starting at the main floor covered loggia and ending at the basement walkout.

An elaborate pool house that includes a full bathroom, a kitchen prep area, a beautiful gas fireplace, HVAC system, a dining area, and stamped concrete. Located next to a beautiful pool, this is a room that is sure to impress. The fireplace and HVAC system will help create a comfortable space to enjoy throughout the year.

Pool

With an ascending slope, we were able to tuck this pool and spa into the hillside and maximize their outdoor space. We used travertine for coping on the upper edge of the raised bond beam and tie that into the pool using a split faced travertine on the face and highlighted columns

This outdoor space was refreshed and updated as part of a larger remodel of this property in The Woodlands, TX.
