Remodeling in Hyde Park.
Hyde Park is one of Austin's oldest neighborhoods and much of it sits inside a local historic district. That single fact changes the sequence of a remodel here: what the exterior can become is settled with the Historic Landmark Commission before the interior plan is finalized.

The housing stock here.
- Craftsman bungalows and early cottages, many from the 1900s through the 1930s.
- Pier and beam foundations, original long-leaf pine framing and floors worth saving.
- Knob and tube remnants and undersized service still turn up in houses that have never been fully rewired.
What we usually do here.
- Rear additions detailed to read as original from the street, with matching siding profile, window proportion and roof pitch.
- Kitchen renovations inside the original footprint, where the plan cannot move but the layout can.
- Careful full-house rewires and replumbs alongside restored original millwork and floors.
Permitting
How Hyde Park projects get permitted.
Reviewed by the City of Austin, with an additional historic review for exterior changes on contributing properties inside the Hyde Park Local Historic District. That review is a real stage with its own calendar, and we build it into the schedule rather than discovering it late.
