“The Katz Builders team is very professional. We have worked on dozens of projects together over a span of over 25 years (my firm draws the plans and Katz does the construction) and every one of my clients who has used Katz for the construction project has been very pleased with quality, professionalism and service. The level of personal attention and care they provide is unparalleled. In one remodel, for instance, they painstakingly removed the original wood casing from doors and reinstalled it after the remodel was finished. Their tile installer did my own floors and I was extremely impressed with how carefully he and his lead installer planned the layout to make sure that the tile was centered on several different axes as well as ensuring no small slivers of tile at edges and other subtle things I would never have noticed had they done it incorrectly. If something "doesn't seem right" about plans we have provided, the Katz team always call to make sure they get it right rather than "winging it" in the field risking misinterpretation of our intent. They have used many of the same sub-contractors the entire time I have known them which means to me that they have loyal sub-contractors and you will get consistent and high quality results from them. And, once again, I want to mention that in all these years I have not once had a homeowner come back to me and complain about them as their builder. That is very rare in this business.”

“We came to Barley & Pfeiffer after exploring a lot of options for our old but not-distinctive house. We were impressed with the way Peter Pfeiffer's house, which we saw on a home tour, embodied sustainable building practices without looking funky. We wanted a project that would incorporate the details that we loved from our old house with smart, energy efficient construction and a contemporary layout suitable for our growing family. We found that Barley & Pfeiffer as a firm provided all the skills we needed to come out at the end with the house we wanted. Alan's design skills, Peter's building science knowledge, and Scott's detailed project management work all combined to give us a beautiful house that works really well for our family, has very low maintenance requirements, and consumes dramatically less energy than most other houses, both of a similar size and much smaller. The money we have not spent on heating and cooling this house in the past seven years could well pay for a new car. If you are going to spend the money to substantially renovate an existing home or build a new home, think carefully about what it will cost to maintain what you end up with. "Green building" is a trend now and many builders and architects claim to be "green," but few firms have the depth of expertise and years of dedication to sustainable building that Barley & Pfeiffer can provide. What you spend up front on excellent design and construction management will be recouped many times over in savings on the cost of living and maintenance. We enjoyed working with Barely & Pfeiffer and would choose them again.”

“Maggie Wylie completely changed my old, outdated & closed-in kitchen, took out a weight-bearing wall, and designed my dream kitchen that's spacious, airy, functional, and open to the adjacent sun room and dining room. Her ideas are creative and insightful. The whole project went smoothly and I couldn't be happier with the end-result!!”

“I have worked with Cornerstone Group on several occasions. I have found them to be very creative while remaining true to their customer's goals and desires. They also hit their time commitments which really helps with keeping the project on track. I would definitely recommend their services.”

“We hired Traci Kelley to draw up our house plans after considering doing it ourselves, realizing that we had gotten in over our heads. We are so glad that we went with her. I was very happy with her from the first meeting. She listened to what we wanted and gave her own input that ended up being far better than what I had imagined and thought of things that I had not considered. Her expertise was greatly appreciated. I got absolutely everything I wanted and more without any costly back and forth, we did some minor changes to the very first draft and that was it. The finished plans are amazing, we can't wait to see our house built.”

“Jim and his team of Architects are an amazing design group. They consistently produce Architecture & Interiors that are stunning. I love going to progress meetings at their office because of their 3D presentations. Clients love seeing renderings of the house very early in the design phase. I highly recommend them and feel that they are one of the very best firms in Austin!”

“We hired Janet to help us design our home on Lake Travis. She was an absolute delight to work with throughout the entire process. I am one of those clients that has a very specific idea of what I want. And Janet is one of those designers that actually listens to what the client has in mind, and then helps them make it even better. She wan't creating her idea of our perfect home, she was helping us create our vision for our home. She was timely and professional, but also has a great sense of humor. Probbably the only negative thing anyone could say about her is that she is a work-a-holic...because she truly loves what she does! Would I hire her again? Absolutely! When a remodeling project recently came up she was the first person that I called. I would recommend her again and again.”

“Tom Hurt Architecture remodeled our very dated '70s home in central Austin into a contemporary treasure 10 years ago. They creatively and cost effectively tackled no small challenge of a house on a very pitched lot with a number of structural complications. Their work to bring natural lighting into spaces is most thoughtful. One should expect very special touches and unique ideas when working with Tom Hurt Architecture on a new project or even a simple addition or remodel. In fact, we came back to Tom Hurt Architecture for a small addition in 2014 -- who knew that a mudroom and storage space could be so beautiful and inviting? Most importantly, they listen, hear and execute to a client's specific direction -- in a unique way with delightful surprises.”

“Carina with Restructure Studio is a talented and thorough designer. We have worked together on two major home renovations including one complete house remodel 3 years ago and more recently, an addition/remodel. We are about to start work on another major addition and remodel which she is currently designing. To cut to the chase, her work is superb and she is a delight to collaborate with. We have always been impressed with the creativity and originality of her designs as well as the responsiveness to client wishes and program requirements. Her attention to detail and conscientiousness is apparent through every phase of the project, from early designs, through estimating, bidding and negotiating as well as construction administration and on site meetings. When working on Carina's projects we know we have decisions made early before they cause delays or complications during construction -- and her conceptual designs look great when implemented!”

“This company is great! I did quite a bit of shopping around before deciding to work with them. I am very happy with them. Their drawings and creativity are hugely helpful but they are also technically adept and their customer service is amazing.”
