Kitchen and Bathrooms Remodeled in Clarksville, Austin: from beige granite to French country calm

A 2000s remodel had left the house livable but generic. With our clients on the East Coast, we reworked the kitchen and bathrooms with a relaxed euro-twist, remediated concealed mold along the way, and priced every line before demo.

The Story

How this project happened.

The GoalKitchen and baths reworked for how she livesThe 2000s remodel worked but was not hers. We kept the floor plan she liked, opened the main rooms, and had the house ready before the family's winter return.
What We FoundMold hidden behind previous remodel workWhen the walls opened, concealed mold from the earlier work surfaced. It went into the daily log the same day and we reached out to the owners. Within days, they had a plan and fair pricing to approve before anything moved forward.
What We DidRemediated the problems, built back healthyOne change order in thirteen weeks. The mold was remediated, the wet rooms rebuilt with mold-resistant practices (our Enso Standard), and the finish followed the approved design.

From the Homeowner

We were a thousand miles away and never once wondered what was happening at our house. It was done when they said it would be done.
