Home Addition Builder in Houston

By Blog

If you’re in the market for a home addition builder, we are Houston’s hometown experts. We can add a room to expand your livable square footage, turn small spaces into large spaces, build a garage, and create an outdoor kitchen oasis.

Indoor Additions

Make the home you love more livable with additions that increase your enjoyment and resale value. Kitchen remodeling can yield remarkable results — you may need more cabinet space, an island, or a larger pantry. You might need a breakfast nook, small study, or bonus area to accommodate your growing family. Perhaps you dream about enlarging your laundry room or adding a mud room.

Many homeowners request extra space when their elderly parents move in, such as a bedroom or suite and a bathroom for aging-in-place needs. As Certified Aging-in-Place Specialists (CAPS), we provide expert design and construction solutions for your loved ones.

Outdoor Additions

Extend your everyday enjoyment into your backyard! If you want to replace your carport with a garage, we can deliver! Some clients request we add a second-story apartment to an existing garage as a rental space. It may be time for a pool house, a cabana, or a mother-in-law cottage to accommodate family and guests.

Custom outdoor kitchens are extremely popular in Houston, whether covered or uncovered. We also build decks, patios, porches, sunrooms, arbors, gazebos, and any other backyard structure you can envision.

ADA Compliance With the Help of an Expert Living-In-Place Remodeler

You can rely on us for a remodeling plan that is fully ADA-compliant, and we guarantee that the renovations will meet your exact requirements. For instance, we can widen walls and doorways for wheelchairs and scooters, install deeply anchored grab bars for safety and convenience, install non-slip flooring, and modify the height of kitchen appliances and cupboards so cooking is still possible.

Professional Remodeling Contractor — What to Look For

By Blog

Why trust your home renovations to just anyone when you can hire a professional remodeling contractor and have your project done right? You deserve the highest quality work at a reasonable price. The smart move is to hire a contractor with vast experience, an excellent reputation, and memberships in high-standard industry organizations. This helps ensure that the contractor is, indeed, a professional who brings value to the job site.

SHR Remodeling, Inc. has fixed many problems brought on by subpar contractors who underbid with “too good to be true” pricing while overstating their competence. Sadly, many consumers have learned painful lessons by jumping at the lowest bid and trusting an underqualified or unscrupulous contractor. It costs time, aggravation, and extra money in the end.

What to Look For in a Contractor

Consumers should consider the overall picture by getting several bids and weighing the big three — experience, reputation, and standing in the industry, with the bid price as a factor as well. A trustworthy contractor will gather information about your project by interviewing you, encouraging your questions, noting the costs of your choices upfront, and understanding the full scope — and only then submitting a bid that is fair and justified.

Professional remodeling contractor

The Truth About “Allowances”

SHR Remodeling checks all of the boxes above and goes a step further. With 40+ years of experience, we create a Comprehensive Project Evaluation (CPE) instead of a bid. The CPE is a very detailed explanation of the work to be done (the deliverables) with all of the client’s choices in writing before we calculate costs so that the exact numbers are known. With these choices made up front, we order all of our products before any demolition begins. Costs are clear to our clients, and there are no surprises.

Compare this to “allowance” tactics used by many companies. These allowances are supposedly “unknowns” and can result in an artificially low price. Sadly, some contractors choose an allowance of, say, $5.00 a square for tile, knowing full well that it will probably be closer to $20.00 a square or a faucet allowance of $75 when it could be as high as $400.

This becomes a “Change Order” and costs the client money. Let me explain. You see, once the remodel has started and the client makes their choices, they are hit with Change Orders for the cost differentiation. In other words, the allowances were not accurate, and the client is stuck with an amount due immediately before work can continue. This leaves customers trapped, and their anticipated budget is ruined.

A Transparent and Trustworthy Professional Remodeling Contractor

SHR Remodeling will not lead you astray. We value our reputation and want the best for our clients. We are active in the top industry organizations and adhere to best practices.

We Repair, Restore, AND Improve

As anyone in this area knows, our city and the outskirts of Houston are prone to weather-related events. Hurricanes, high winds, lightning strikes, severe flooding, downed trees, and other storm damage erupt from time to time. From broken windows, holes in roofs, and saturated sheetrock, your home can seem hopelessly affected. But never fear! The key is finding an experienced home remodeling company that can skillfully and professionally renovate and repair your home.

SHR remodeling not only puts your home back together but can also help homeowners upgrade kitchens, living rooms, and bathrooms as part of the repair process. Often, homes look better and are more functional after we’ve worked our magic!

As one satisfied client (Carol Ann C.) said, “I was satisfied with the repairs done inside from a rain storm. I had to have a new roof put on. They did a very nice job with that.”

We are also grateful for the word-of-mouth referrals we receive from appreciative clients across the city.
