AfterConstruction in Kyle, TX
Kitchen remodeling in Kyle typically runs between $14,000 and $45,000, with smaller jobs like backsplash or countertop work landing in the $800 to $6,500 range. The number that matters most is the one written on your quote before any work starts, because Kyle’s housing stock was built fast on Blackland Prairie clay and the remodel you’re planning now is often shaped by what that soil has done to your slab since the foundation was poured. Call (470) 298-9650 when you want a written price, not a phone estimate.
Why Kyle Homes Are Different
Kyle grew from a railroad stop into one of America’s fastest-expanding cities on the strength of master-planned subdivisions. Plum Creek, Waterleaf, 6 Stones, and Anthem accounts for nearly all the local housing, and almost every home went up after 2000 on a post-tensioned concrete slab. That matters because Kyle sits on Vertisol clay, the shrink-swell soil that cracks open during dry summers and pushes upward after wet winters. The earliest homes in Plum Creek have now cycled through 15 to 20 years of that movement, and the pattern is consistent: post-tension cables that have corroded, drywall stair-step cracks at sheetrock seams, interior doors that no longer latch in August. Hays County permits track with HOA architectural guidelines in most of these subdivisions, so exterior work often needs both city and association sign-off before the first board is pulled. February 2021’s Winter Storm Uri added another layer, because fast-built production homes throughout Kyle showed insulation gaps and framing issues that are still being remediated today.
Our Main Kyle Services
The two calls we field most from Kyle homeowners are for fences and driveways, because both sit directly on the clay that moves under this city. Each one starts the same way: a written price before any work begins, and a documented photo record when the crew leaves.
Fence Installation in Kyle
Fence posts set in Kyle’s expansive clay need deeper footings than what you’d see in limestone country. When the soil swells after a wet spring, shallow-set posts heave and rack, which is why we set posts below the active clay zone and document the hole depth before concrete goes in. HOA rules in Plum Creek and Waterleaf dictate style, height, and finish, and we pull those guidelines before we quote. Fence Installation in Kyle covers the fencing options and local price ranges in detail.
Driveway & Pavers in Kyle
A driveway in Kyle fails when the base wasn’t prepped for what the clay does, not because the concrete itself was bad. We excavate to a depth that gets below the active shrink-swell layer, then compact a stabilized base before any paver or pour work starts. That’s the difference between a driveway that lasts and one that cracks at the first drought cycle. Driveway & Pavers in Kyle walks through paver, concrete, and asphalt options with local pricing.

BeforeAfterKitchen Remodeling in Kyle
Kitchen remodeling in Kyle starts with a written price, not a phone guess, because slab movement here means the cabinets you hang today need to sit level next year. In Plum Creek and Waterleaf we regularly open kitchen walls to find stress cracks behind the cabinetry that nobody saw until the demo started, and the fix has to be engineered into the job before the countertops are templated. A full Kyle kitchen remodel typically runs between $14,000 and $45,000 depending on cabinet grade, countertop material, and how much slab remediation the floor needs, and every line is on paper before we order the first cabinet from our full Kitchen Remodeling service range.
Full Kitchen Remodeling
Signs you need it
Your drawers bind in winter, the countertop seam has opened, or the layout no longer works for how your household actually cooks.
What it costs in Kyle
A full kitchen remodel in Kyle runs $14,000 to $45,000, with the range driven by cabinet line, countertop stone, and whether we’re repairing slab-related wall movement before finish work starts.
How we do it
We document the existing conditions with photos, pull the written scope together line by line, then demo, frame any repairs, rough in electrical and plumbing, hang cabinets, template and set countertops, and finish with tile, paint, and hardware.
Cabinets & Countertops
Signs you need it
Boxes are delaminating from humidity swings, drawer slides are failing, or the doors no longer align after years of slab movement.
What it costs in Kyle
Cabinet installation runs $4,000 to $13,000 and countertop installation adds $2,000 to $6,500, depending on whether we’re using stock lines or the higher-end cabinet brands.
How we do it
We level every base cabinet on shims and screw it to studs, then template countertops after the cabinets are set so the stone or quartz sits dead flat even on a slab that moved a quarter inch last drought.
Backsplash, Tile & Flooring
Signs you need it
Grout cracks in a stair-step pattern behind the range, tile has popped loose at the cooktop, or you’re refreshing a kitchen with dated materials.
What it costs in Kyle
Backsplash installation ranges from $800 to $2,500 in Kyle depending on tile choice and linear footage.
How we do it
We install a crack-isolation membrane over any suspect wall movement, then set tile over a flat substrate with polymer-modified thinset so the finish doesn’t telegraph the clay cycles.
What Kitchen Remodeling Costs in Kyle
| Item | Typical range in Kyle |
|---|---|
| Full kitchen remodel | $14,000 - $45,000 |
| Small kitchen remodel | $9,000 - $20,000 |
| Kitchen island installation | $3,000 - $10,000 |
How long does a kitchen remodel take in Kyle?
A full kitchen remodel in Kyle typically takes 6 to 10 weeks from demo to final walkthrough. Custom cabinet lead times and any slab-related framing repairs can push the schedule, which is why the written scope includes a timeline before we start. Call (470) 298-9650 for an exact schedule.
Will the price change once you open the walls?
Only if you sign a change order. In Kyle we sometimes find slab-related wall cracking or compromised framing that was invisible before demo, and no change proceeds without a written, signed change order and a revised price. Call (470) 298-9650 to hear how that process works.
Bathroom Remodeling in Kyle
Bathroom remodeling in Kyle costs between $9,000 and $28,000 for a full project, and the first thing we check is whether the wet-area waterproofing has survived the slab movement that comes with Blackland Prairie clay. Every bathroom in a 2000s-era Kyle home sits on a slab that has cycled through drought and flood conditions, so tile cracks at the pan and failed shower membranes are more common here than in older cities with pier-and-beam foundations. We spec waterproofing systems accordingly, and our full Bathroom Remodeling process puts the system and the price on paper before demolition begins.
Walk-In Showers & Shower Remodeling
Signs you need it
Grout or tile at the shower floor is cracking, the pan has shifted, or you’re seeing water staining on the drywall below the curb.
What it costs in Kyle
Walk-in shower installation in Kyle runs $4,500 to $12,000 depending on glass, tile, and whether we’re replacing the existing pan with a new waterproofing system.
How we do it
We demo to the studs, check the slab for movement at the drain and curb, then build a waterproofed pan with a bonded membrane before tile ever touches the floor.
Tub-to-Shower Conversion
Signs you need it
You have a dated tub-and-surround layout, the tub has drained slowly since the slab settled, or you need a curbless entry for accessibility.
What it costs in Kyle
A tub-to-shower conversion in Kyle runs $3,500 to $10,000 depending on whether we’re rerouting drain lines and what level of finish tile you choose.
How we do it
We remove the tub, rework the drain to the shower’s new location with the correct slope, install a waterproof membrane from pan to ceiling, then tile and set the glass.
What Bathroom Remodeling Costs in Kyle
| Item | Typical range in Kyle |
|---|---|
| Full bathroom remodel | $9,000 - $28,000 |
| Small bathroom remodel | $5,000 - $12,000 |
| Walk-in shower installation | $4,500 - $12,000 |
Can you fix a shower pan that failed from slab movement?
Yes. We demo the pan, inspect the slab for cracks or movement at the drain, and install a bonded waterproofing membrane that flexes with the clay cycles instead of cracking. Call (470) 298-9650 for a written quote on your specific shower.
What does it take to get a curbless shower in a Kyle slab home?
A curbless shower on a post-tensioned slab requires dropping the shower floor into the slab, which means cutting into concrete and sometimes adjusting drain lines. We assess the post-tension cable locations before any cutting is approved. Call (470) 298-9650 to have us look at your floor plan.
Roofing in Kyle
Roofing in Kyle has two recurring failure points: hail from spring storms along I-35 and the ventilation deficiencies that showed up after February 2021’s freeze exposed attic insulation gaps across fast-built Hays County subdivisions. A roof replacement in Kyle runs $8,000 to $20,000 for a typical composition shingle roof, and the call you make after a storm should be to someone who documents the shingle layer count and deck condition before quoting. Every Roofing job we build starts with a written price, a written scope, and photos of what’s actually wrong on your roof.
Roof Repair
Signs you need it
You see granule loss in the gutters, lifted or missing shingles after a storm, or water staining on ceiling drywall that follows the rafter lines.
What it costs in Kyle
Roof repair in Kyle ranges from $400 to $1,800 depending on whether we’re replacing a few shingles, flashing, or a section of water-damaged decking.
How we do it
We document the damaged area before any work, pull the affected shingles, inspect the underlayment and decking, replace what’s failed, and leave you with a photo record of the repair.
Roof Replacement & Installation
Signs you need it
The roof is past its shingle warranty, multiple repairs have accumulated, or you’re seeing nail pops and lifting across entire slopes.
What it costs in Kyle
A full roof replacement in Kyle runs $8,000 to $20,000 for a normal single-story composition roof, with size, pitch, and tear-off layers driving the final number.
How we do it
We tear off to the deck, inspect sheathing for the freeze-related and hail-related damage common in Kyle, then install new underlayment, drip edge, and shingles with the correct nail pattern for our wind zone.
What Roofing Costs in Kyle
| Item | Typical range in Kyle |
|---|---|
| Roof replacement | $8,000 - $20,000 |
| Roof repair | $400 - $1,800 |
| Metal roof installation | $15,000 - $40,000 |
How much does a roof replacement cost after a hailstorm in Kyle?
A full roof replacement after hail damage in Kyle typically runs $8,000 to $20,000, but the insurance claim you file and the scope you submit will determine what’s covered. We document the damage and the layer count before quoting. Call (470) 298-9650 to schedule an inspection.
Do you repair the decking when you replace a roof in Kyle?
We inspect every sheet of decking after tear-off and replace any that’s water-damaged, delaminated, or pierced by hail before the new underlayment goes down. Each replaced sheet is a written line item on the change order. Call (470) 298-9650 for a written estimate.
Windows & Doors in Kyle
Window and door installation in Kyle runs $4,500 to $15,000 for a full replacement package on a typical single-story, and the cost depends heavily on whether your home is one of the post-2000 tract builds whose original builder-grade windows and door frames have been racking as the slab moves beneath them. Doors that no longer latch in summer, windows that stick after a wet winter, and warped frames at the south-facing wall are the failure patterns we see most in Plum Creek and Waterleaf. Our full Windows & Doors service replaces the unit, not just the sash, and we square and shim every opening before the new frame is secured.
Window Replacement
Signs you need it
Windows stick or won’t latch after the seasons change, seals are fogging between panes, or energy bills climb every August.
What it costs in Kyle
Window replacement in Kyle runs $4,500 to $15,000 depending on the number of openings, frame material, and glass package.
How we do it
We remove the existing window to the rough opening, check the framing for the twists and stress typical of slab movement, square and shim the opening, then install and seal the new unit.
Impact Windows & Doors
Signs you need it
You want hail-resistance on windward walls, added storm protection, or lower insurance premiums on a home that sits in our storm corridor.
What it costs in Kyle
Impact window and door installation in Kyle ranges from $8,000 to $25,000 depending on the number of openings and the required impact rating.
How we do it
We pull the existing units, inspect the rough openings, install impact-rated frames and laminated glass with the correct structural anchoring for Hays County wind loads, and document the install.
What Windows & Doors Costs in Kyle
| Item | Typical range in Kyle |
|---|---|
| Window replacement | $4,500 - $15,000 |
| Impact window installation | $8,000 - $25,000 |
| Door installation | $4,500 - $15,000 |
Why do my doors stop latching in the summer in Kyle?
Summer heat dries the clay under your slab, the slab contracts, and the frame moves just enough to misalign the strike plate. We fix the source by squaring the rough opening and resetting the frame. Call (470) 298-9650 to schedule an assessment.
Can you replace builder-grade windows with energy-efficient units in a Kyle home?
Yes. We replace the full unit, not just glass, and can install low-E, argon-filled packages sized to the existing openings so you don’t need new framing. Call (470) 298-9650 for a written quote on your specific window count.
Home Additions & ADU in Kyle
Home additions in Kyle run $45,000 to $130,000, and an ADU starts around $90,000 and can top $220,000 depending on the foundation approach, utility runs, and what the Blackland clay requires for site prep. Because almost every Kyle lot sits on expansive soil, any addition means either tying into the existing post-tensioned slab or pouring a new engineered foundation that moves independently enough to avoid differential cracking at the connection. Kyle’s zoning allows ADUs on most single-family lots, but HOA covenants in Plum Creek and Waterleaf can restrict detached structures, so permit and covenant research comes first. Our full Home Additions & ADU process begins with that research before we write the first line of your quote.
Garage Conversion ADU
Signs you need it
You have an attached or detached garage that’s underused, suitable for a dwelling unit, and on a lot where the HOA and city will permit the conversion.
What it costs in Kyle
A garage conversion ADU in Kyle runs $30,000 to $80,000 depending on insulation, plumbing, and whether we’re adding a bathroom from scratch.
How we do it
We inspect the existing slab and roof lines, then work through the permit and HOA process, convert the interior with proper insulation and mechanicals, and finish to a full dwelling standard.
New Detached ADU
Signs you need it
You want separate, purpose-built living space in the backyard and your lot dimensions and HOA rules allow a new structure.
What it costs in Kyle
A new detached ADU in Kyle runs $90,000 to $220,000 depending on square footage, foundation engineering, and utility trenching.
How we do it
We start with a soils report to understand the clay, design the foundation to move with Kyle’s shrink-swell cycle, then pull permits, build the shell, and finish the interior to a full dwelling standard.
What Home Additions & ADU Costs in Kyle
| Item | Typical range in Kyle |
|---|---|
| Home addition | $45,000 - $130,000 |
| ADU construction | $90,000 - $220,000 |
| Garage conversion | $30,000 - $80,000 |
Does Kyle allow ADUs on single-family lots?
Yes, Kyle’s zoning generally allows one ADU on single-family residential lots, but setbacks, height limits, and HOA covenants vary by subdivision. We research all three before quoting. Call (470) 298-9650 to have us check your specific lot.
How does the clay soil affect a new addition’s foundation in Kyle?
The Blackland Prairie clay swells and contracts with moisture, so a new addition needs an engineered foundation system that accommodates that movement without differential cracking at the connection to the existing slab. Call (470) 298-9650 for a written scope on your project.

Stock arrives from regional suppliers on normal construction lead times, and we’ll tell you which approach makes sense for your lot before we put a number on paper.
