Houston General Contractor

What we self-perform

As a residential general contractor, the value we offer is depth across the trades that make up most of a project — handled by one company instead of five.

We self-perform framing and carpentry, drywall and texture, flooring of every kind, tile, interior and exterior paint, siding and exterior repair, doors and trim, decks and fences, and the punch-list work that ties a project together. Because it's all under one roof, a job that starts as a repair and turns into something bigger doesn't need a second company — we keep going.

Where the work calls for moving plumbing or electrical, that's a separate scope we don't take on, and we say so up front so it's planned for rather than discovered mid-project.

Remodels and renovations

As a remodeling contractor we handle the renovations that stay within the trades we self-perform: kitchen and bathroom remodels, flooring and tile throughout, whole-room refreshes, built-ins, and the drywall, paint, and finish work that makes a space feel new.

The honest version of remodeling is that the surfaces and structure — cabinets, counters, tile, floors, walls, and paint — are the bulk of the work and the bulk of the budget, and that's exactly what we do. When a remodel needs plumbing or electrical relocated, that portion is a separate scope; we build everything around it and tell you where the line is before we start.

Repairs and home maintenance

Not every project is a renovation. A lot of what a general contractor is good for is home repair services — the running list of things a house needs that individually don't justify a specialist but together are a real project.

Drywall and ceilings, a door that won't close, flooring that's lifting, rotted trim or siding, a fence down after a storm, water damage that needs the room put back together. One company that can knock out a mixed list in a visit or two is worth more than coordinating a handful of separate trades, and it's most of why this work comes back to us.

One point of contact, honest about scope

The reason to hire a general contractor is accountability: one company, one estimate, one schedule, and one number to call when you have a question. You're not the project manager anymore.

What makes that actually work is being honest about scope. We're clear from the first walkthrough about what we self-perform and what falls outside it — moving plumbing or electrical, and specialty systems, are a separate scope we don't take on. Knowing that up front is what keeps a project on schedule, instead of finding out halfway through that a piece of it was never really covered.

How we scope and estimate a project

Good contracting starts before any work does, in how carefully the project gets scoped. We walk the job, talk through what you're trying to accomplish, and give you an itemized written estimate that breaks the work out line by line — so you can see what you're paying for and what's in and out of scope.

That's also the honest answer to how you find the best contractor in Houston: not the lowest number or the biggest promise, but the one who scopes the job accurately, tells you the parts they don't do, and prices what's actually there. Estimates are free, and we'd rather give you a real number than a low one we can't hold to.

What a general contractor costs in Houston

General-contracting work is priced by the project, not by a flat rate, because no two are the same. A single repair is a small, defined number; a multi-room remodel is scoped and priced as a whole.

What moves the number: how many trades and how much work the project pulls in, the materials and finishes you choose, the condition of what's already there once we open it up, and how much of the house has to be worked around while you live in it. As a Houston construction company built around self-performing the work, we quote after walking the project and give you an itemized estimate. These are project-based numbers, not a published rate — and the estimate is free.
