What we build
Seven ways we work on Austin homes.
Why INLAY
Most remodels don't go wrong on site. They go wrong on paper.
A vague scope becomes a moving price. A moving price becomes a stack of change orders. And the crew that was here every morning in month one is suddenly on someone else's job in month four. Almost every remodeling horror story in Austin starts the same way: nobody wrote down exactly what was being built, or exactly what it would cost.
We work in the opposite order. Design and selections are finished before a price is issued, so the number you sign is built on real drawings, real materials, and real trade partner bids, not an allowance that quietly doubles in month three.
Then one lead carpenter stays on your house from demolition to punch list, and the schedule and budget live in a shared portal you can open any day of the week.

How it goes
Five steps, written down before you sign anything.
- 01
Consultation
We walk the house, talk through what you want to change, and give you an honest sense of the budget before anyone commits.
- 02
Design & Selections
Drawings, structural review and every finish selected, including tile, stone, plumbing and hardware, before a price exists.
- 03
Fixed-Price Proposal
One number, built from trade partner bids on finished drawings. No allowances hiding a second budget.
- 04
Permitting & Pre-Construction
Submittal and plan review with the reviewing authority. Review calendars belong to the City, and we track yours weekly.
- 05
Construction
One lead carpenter on your house start to finish, a schedule built for your project, and weekly written updates.
Investment
Clear pricing, agreed before we begin.
Every home, every plan and every set of finishes is different, so we prefer to talk with you properly rather than post a figure that could never fit your project.
What we can promise is how the number is reached: openly, in writing, and only once the design is settled. You will know exactly what your investment covers before you sign anything.
- Design and selections first
- Every cabinet, tile, fixture and finish is chosen with you before a number exists, so the price reflects the home you are actually getting.
- One fixed price
- Your trade partner bids are taken on finished drawings. You receive a single contract sum, clearly written, with nothing left as an open allowance.
- Changes only by agreement
- If you adjust the scope, or something concealed appears behind a wall, we photograph it, price it and ask for your written approval before we continue.
- A conversation, not a sales pitch
- Tell us what you have in mind and we will talk openly about budget in our first conversation, so you can plan with confidence.
Your contract sum is confirmed once design and selections are complete.
