About Us
WEST UNIVERSITY
HEIGHTS
A Houston construction and design-build company — residential and commercial
Right Angle Home & Outdoors was founded by Omar Afra and Pedro Salazar, who came to residential construction from restoration work on century-old Houston buildings and from years of building temporary infrastructure for large public events. Both are habits that stick: you plan for water first, you sequence trades tightly, and you assume the weather is going to test the work.
We work on residential and commercial projects across Greater Houston, and the sequence is always the same: planning and scope first, then material selection, site and drainage work, then execution with our own crews. Outdoor living and landscape design are a large part of what we do, but the underlying discipline is construction.
Everything we build — decks, pergolas, paver patios and drives, cedar fencing, pool decks, drainage — is detailed for Houston's Gulf Coast reality: clay soils that move with the seasons, heat and humidity, and heavy rain that has to be drained somewhere. Materials get chosen for that climate, not for a catalog photo.
Construction with intention: drawn properly, permitted properly, built to outlive the trend cycle.

We had the play area of our backyard done in turf by Right Angle this fall and it was the best decision we could have ever made! We spend so much more time outside now and enjoy every minute. Not only is the quality of the work impeccable, but they were able to do it in less than...

Building Outdoor Living in the Houston Heights: What Homeowners Should Plan Before Construction
