A 2015 Viridian listing pairs a large covered patio with a brick fireplace and grill gas line, so the coating has to stop cleanly at the hearth.
Your local coating team
Built-in fireplaces change what a covered patio holds. One 2015 listing in Viridian, the lakes- and-trails master plan in north Arlington, describes a large covered patio with an outdoor brick fireplace and a gas line for grilling. Yards in the Viridian listings we sampled ran 0.09 to 0.23 acres, and swimming happens at the Lake Club rather than out back. So the roofed patio is where people gather, and the fireplace anchors one side of it.
The coating stops at the hearth. It does not run under the brick or up its face, and it works around the gas stub instead of over it. That means masking the base of the firebox, the hearth edge and the gas line before any grinding or base coat, then hand-brushing the last few inches. Once the topcoat is down, the fireplace stays cold until the coating has cured.
The tape measure stops at the brick too. The quoted footage is the covered slab out to the hearth, not the fireplace footprint, so a big masonry surround can take real square feet off the job. Viridian sits about 33 miles from the Garland shop, roughly 39 minutes with light traffic, and rush hour on I-635 adds to that.

Arlington epoxy flooringBuilt around local conditions
Almost 45 percent of Arlington homes were built in the 1970s or 1980s, and the median year is 1986. A slab that old can carry oil, flaking paint or hairline cracks from decades of movement. Preparation and suitable crack repairs come before polyurea, with the scope included in your written quote.
Interlochen includes rear-facing garages, while southwest Arlington properties can have acre-plus lots with three-car and oversized garages. Access and bay size vary considerably. Each floor is measured so the quote reflects actual square footage rather than a standard garage package.
Arlington’s HOA map lists 79 associations and neighborhood groups, including Viridian Residential Association, Russell Curry Estates and Southwest Arlington Property Owners. Interlochen and Rush Creek have associations too. If yours reviews visible changes, ask us for product and color information. Approval remains between you and your association.
Backyard pools are common in Rush Creek, Interlochen West and southwest acreage properties. Nearby patios and decks face open Texas sun. Exterior finish recommendations account for UV exposure, moisture and traction. Nick assesses each pool surround in person before discussing the suitable scope.
Reliable local support
Arlington is about 42 minutes from our Garland shop outside rush hour. Daytime traffic takes longer. We confirm your address and current appointment options rather than promising an unverified arrival or lead time.
Nick sees your Arlington concrete in person. Size, age, stains, existing coatings and daily use shape the recommendation, and your written quote explains the preparation needed.
Qualifying residential flake systems include a 15-year written warranty. Ask Nick to explain coverage and exclusions for the specific surfaces on your quote; do not assume every outdoor or commercial system carries the same terms.
Nick’s Garland-based company handles your estimate, installation planning and project questions. Discuss all the areas you want evaluated at the same free visit, with clear recommendations and no pressure to buy.

Yes, the patio coating runs right up to the base of an outdoor fireplace on an Arlington patio, then stops at the masonry. The crew masks the firebox base, the hearth line and any gas stub, and finishes the last inches by brush so the edge stays clean. The coating does not wrap the brick, and we make no heat claim at the hearth without a spec sheet. Show Nick the fireplace by calling (214) 550-9809.
Square footage of the covered slab sets most of an Arlington patio coating price, and Nick measures it to the hearth rather than across the fireplace footprint. Condition comes next: cracks, soot and grease stains, steps and the hand work at a fireplace or gas line. You get one written number at the free visit and nothing is booked until you agree. Request the free visit through (214) 550-9809.
Arlington is inside our working radius for patio coatings. Viridian, on the north side, is about 39 minutes and 33 miles from Garland with light traffic, and City Hall is about 42 minutes. Interlochen in the northwest and the Estates on Rush Creek and acreage in southwest Arlington sit farther out, and daytime traffic on I-635 stretches every trip. Read us your address at (214) 550-9809 and we will confirm it is inside city limits.
Expect one install day, then close to 48 hours of curing before the furniture and grill come back: that is the usual Arlington patio coating schedule, so plan on the patio being out of use for about three days. The fireplace waits until Nick confirms the topcoat is ready for heat nearby. Edge work at a hearth can lengthen install day a little, and Nick tells you that at the quote. Nick can pencil in dates when you call (214) 550-9809.
Soot, ash and grill grease near the hearth are the stains Nick looks for first on an Arlington covered patio, along with hairline cracks. Older patios in the city have more age behind them, since the median Arlington home was built in 1986, so a 1980s slab may need more crack work than a newer Viridian one. Prep deals with each of these before the patio coating is applied. Describe what you see at (214) 550-9809.
Polyurea with a UV-stable polyaspartic topcoat is the better patio coating for Arlington, and it is the only system we put outdoors. Epoxy yellows in sunlight, which shows quickly at the open edge of a covered patio. Polyurea grips the concrete and moves with it through hot days and cool nights; Nick calls it about four times more flexible than epoxy. Nick brings color samples to lay on your slab. Set a time for him at (214) 550-9809.
Be home for the estimate, because Nick walks the patio and the fireplace edges with you, but install day may only need backyard access. Let the crew know where the gate is, whether it locks, and whether the gas line to the grill can be shut off for the day. If you will be at work during your Arlington patio coating, arrange access at (214) 550-9809.
