Confirm the permit position before you plan

The railway arrived in 1911 and pulled businesses over from nearby Sherwood, and Mertzon took the county seat in a contested vote in 1936. Ranching and warehousing gave way to oil and gas as the main source of county income.

Exposed rock in the area means footing excavation is not always the straightforward dig it is on the Lipan Flat.

Mertzon is incorporated but publishes no building, permits or code enforcement function and lists no building official. Whether a permit is required is unverified. Call City Hall on (325) 835-5791.

Questions

Things people ask before they start

Do I need a permit for a patio cover in Mertzon?

Mertzon is incorporated but publishes no building, permits or code enforcement function and lists no building official. Whether a permit is required is unverified. Call City Hall on (325) 835-5791.

How far is Mertzon from San Angelo?

It is 26 miles south-west of San Angelo on US-67. That affects scheduling more than it affects price, and where it affects price we say so up front.

What does a patio cover cost in Mertzon?

The same planning ranges apply as in San Angelo: roughly $22 to $48 per square foot installed for an attached cover, and $38 to $70 for a framed and shingled covered patio. Ground conditions move it more than distance does.

Is the ground different from San Angelo?

Often. Exposed rock in the area means footing excavation is not always the straightforward dig it is on the Lipan Flat. The footing design follows what is actually there rather than a standard detail.

Do you actually work out here?

Yes. Mertzon is one of 22 communities we cover across the Concho Valley, and the permit path here is genuinely different from the one in San Angelo.
