We had a dream of redesigning the entire space but it seemed like an overwhelming undertaking. RB jumped into action and we began re-imagining the entire space to add an additional 1800 sq feet. Thru their guidance and talented team, we successfully kept the original mid-century quintessential Austin look, while modernizing and adding space. Their architect designed our dream home and their team made it a reality. In 13 months they transformed our 3/2 into a modern 5/3, 3600 sq foot, single level, work of art. > > Everytime we talked to friends about their building/remodeling experience, they talked of scheduling slips, management challenges and never recommended their various GC's. We were nervous. But holy goodness...this team and the overall experience was amazing!!! Not only is the home gorgeous and unique, they managed to the schedule, executed flawlessly and when there were a few challenges, they were transparent and up front in their communication about everything! This built a trust that gave us peace of mind. They built us a new home that we absolutely love with our whole heart. > > We can't recommend this team strongly enough. We have had an incredible experience. Every single person we worked with had a positive attitude and seemed to love their work. This speaks volumes to the culture they have created and that permeates into their deliverables. If you are lucky enough to work with Elizabeth, Domingo, Michelle, Alejandro, Jaun, and Whitney, you are winning. **★★★★★ — sneel\_us, Dec. 2022** > We had an excellent remodel outcome with Remodel Boutique. We’d wanted to remodel for a long time but it seemed like such an overwhelming and scary thing to do. After putting it off for years, we finally decided to do it. We have an older home with lots of character that we wanted to maintain. We wanted to bring some modern elements and functionality but in a way that didn’t clash with the uniqueness of the home. Other groups seemed to push for a look that is trending at the moment, but Remodel Boutique really listened to our aspirations and shared in our excitement about bringing an older home to its full potential. > > We had three areas remodeled: Kitchen, laundry, and bathroom. They came up with designs that harmonize with the house that were beyond anything we could have imagined. Older homes are notorious for having bad storage and they found so much extra storage space in their designs. Between the beauty and the functionality, the difference in general living is amazing; less stress and a happier vibe. > > Additionally, staff were great to work with, the payments were divided throughout the project, and once the design phase was complete, there was a steady flow of talented folks on site working. They did a great job communicating when to expect various crews coming through. We could not be happier with the new life and lifestyle brought to our home. **★★★★★ — Shannon, Nov. 2022** > We chose Remodel Boutique to build our Accessory Dwelling Unit (rental space in the backyard) based on their well deserved reputation and many awards, including one for pro bono work during the 2021 Winter Storm which meant a lot to me. We were so happy they chose to work with us. From the beginning we communicated easily and felt like we were all on one team: our vision, their making it a reality. We genuinely liked everyone we worked with. How often does someone say that about a contractors or a construction project? We were on a strict budget and they still found great options for us. And they built the ADU in record time. They were also really good about explaining the process to us such as the inspection timelines and requirement and each week they sent photos of what had been accomplished with notes of what to expect the following week. > > Although we were on a budget, we saw other RB projects and can attest they can do higher end ones too -- we wanted to move in! Love their style and their willingness to work on projects with tight budgets. > > We highly recommend Remodel Boutique! **★★★★★ — Amanda Kent, Nov. 2022** > The only thing we love more than our primary bed/bath/office addition was the experience working with Elizabeth, Michelle, Mingo, Becca and so many more at Remodel Boutique to make it happen! > > From day one everyone was incredibly clear and realistic with cost and timeline expectations, communication was prompt and thorough, and everyone we interacted treated our project with the care you would expect someone to extend only to their own home. > > I especially loved how they gathered materials on-site during the planning and permitting stages so when we were given the go-ahead everything was already here to expedite the process and go full steam ahead. Basecamp is such an excellent communication tool. Everything being in writing and accessible at any point in the project is worlds better than relying on quick phone calls and memory. > > They worked with me to find cost-effective options where possible—I’m looking at you, glass block window—and supported me indulging in my must-have splurges. It was so fun to be able to put together a truly custom look with folks who had the expertise to bring my eclectic wishes together. > > As with any project, there were hiccups here and there. The RB difference is that \_every single time\_ the priority was resolving the situation promptly to my satisfaction, not shifting blame, upcharging or cutting corners. > > We enthusiastically recommend them to anyone and will 100% reach out again on any future projects. **★★★★★ — Carrie Holley-Hurt, Nov. 2022** > Working with Remodel Boutique was a breath of fresh air after many home renovation nightmares. When we decided to finally do our remodel I was nervous that it would be another project that would have hidden costs, be over schedule, leave us with a less-than-satisfactory remodel, and cause months and months of stress. But we had to do it because the kids were getting older and the housing market is insane. We went with Remodel Boutique because their work was lovely and they saw a vision for our house we couldn’t. Also, after dealing with so many condescending male contractors I needed to work with people who would be clear and treat me as a person with a mind. And thank goodness, because their work isn’t just lovely, it's solid. It was also on budget, under schedule, and they gave us upgrades we didn’t even know we needed! If you are lucky enough to work with this woman-owned firm you need to jump at the opportunity. **★★★★★ — HU-661758478, May 2022** > I'd hire them again without hesitation. The whole team seemed to care deeply that the project came out well. And it did! Great attention to detail, their process runs smoothly, and communication was a breeze. Highly recommend! **★★★★★ — amy brody, May 2022** > Working with Michelle and the Team was an absolute delight! We engaged with them to renovate our bathroom and increase the functionality of our living room. From start to finish they were communicative, professional and meticulous in their attention to detail. There were no surprises with regard to cost or timing - everything was on-time and on-budget. We love the finished product! They really transformed these two rooms, exactly as we wanted. > > We can not speak highly enough of our experience - they truly made our house a home and we whole-heartedly recommend them. **★★★★★ — Daniel Forkosh, April 2022** > We recently completed a full remodel of our home with Remodel Boutique and had a great experience. From the beginning, they worked to address our needs and presented us with multiple options that were unique, tasteful, and would fit our budget. They were honest, creative, and responsive. Construction projects can be very stressful, but they made the process as easy for us as possible. > > The team was very efficient and organized. From obtaining permits, to weekly updates, all the way through the punch list, everything moved along as scheduled. They were even able to complete our project a couple of weeks ahead of schedule! This project was as smooth as we could have ever hoped for. > All in all, Remodel Boutique takes pride in its work and will follow through to make sure you are satisfied. Highly recommend!! **★★★★★ — Rachel Penticuff, March 2022** > I worked with Remodel Boutique to remodel my bathroom and upgrade the lighting to accent art and let me set the mood throughout my little 525 sq ft condo. I worked mainly with Becca (design) and Michelle (build). What they did for me is nothing short of stunning. Becca took to heart my goals for the bathroom and the RB team created something way beyond what I'd hoped for. (I had no idea I'd go bonkers for built-ins!) During the renovation, the charming and hilarious Michelle kept things on an even keel. The project was completed on time, on budget, and with quality MUCH higher than I expected. I fully recommend Remodel Boutique without reservation. 14/10 would let them tear apart/rebuild my place any time. **★★★★★ — HU-76701090, Dec. 2020** > Michelle and Kristen did a major remodel for us end of 2019 and into 2020. They were such a pleasure to work with and did a really great job. We found the process of working directly with them instead of an architect and contractor to be so much more efficient and easier. Her team of guys that were out here all of the time were super nice. Our kids missed them when they were gone. We also lived in the house through the renovation and they did such a great job cleaning at the end of the day to make sure the place was safe for us. We would for sure hire them again! They took down a wall to expand our living room, did a kitchen reno and two bathroom renos, and built a deck! **★★★★★ — Carol Oscarson, Oct. 2020** > The team at Remodel Boutique is fantastic. From answering our initial questions, to advising us on materials, to making adjustments on-site, they are all attentive (and patient) to the needs of their clients. They were always on time, left our house clean, addressed issues with subcontractors immediately and made changes as needed. When we wanted to install under cabinet lights that weren’t in the original plan, they installed them at no cost. Their attention to detail, consistent communication, and their commitment to make things right really impressed us. Our kitchen is beautiful and we are looking forward to working with them on our next project. Hire them! You’ll be glad you did. **★★★★★ — Rachel Wester, Oct. 2020** > We had a great experience with the Remodel Boutique team. From the first consultation through the final steps of the punch list process, the team communicated quickly and clearly, created beautiful designs, and made suggestions to maximize our budget. Renovating during a pandemic was something none of us could have planned for, but the team was flexible and accommodating. We are thrilled with how everything turned out! ## Selected projects - [Lakeside](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lakeside-pj-vj~7075915) - Location: Austin, Texas - Photos: 18 - Description: When we bought this smelly, neglected home, it was definitely not love at first sight. But something about the property kept drawing us in. The small, albeit failing, porch off the side of the home made it feel like a secluded treehouse right in the city. With the sounds of flowing water from Little Walnut Creek as the only backyard neighbors, we decided, “Why not?” and bought the stinky house. Spending the majority of the budget making the property habitable, we had to be creative with a lot of… - [Far West](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/far-west-pj-vj~6998965) - Location: Austin, TX - Photos: 74 - Description: A single-story ranch house in Austin received a new look with a two-story addition, complete interior remodel, and new landscaping. - [Hamrich](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/hamrich-pj-vj~7609777) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 16 - Description: This project was transformed from a maze of unusable spaces into a floor plan that meets a family’s post-Covid lifestyle: Living Apart Together. \*1972 home taken down to the studs for a whole-house remodel with reconfiguration of interior and exterior update \*Created an office accessible from exterior to accommodate client access \*Indoor/Outdoor space that flows from all main living areas and primary bedroom \*Multiple areas for family to retreat or entertain \*Worked with existing elements to kee… - [Running Brook](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/running-brook-pj-vj~7609797) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 18 - [Penelope](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/penelope-pj-vj~7609786) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 17 - Description: The clients came to us with a large list of requests for transforming a complex primary bathroom that the previous owners built in converted attic space: \*Completely rework the layout to make the space feel larger and more efficient \*Increase privacy \*Add a large soaking tub and contemporary frameless shower \*Replace awkwardly oversized, low-slung vanity area with separate vanities \*Remove the outswing door on the existing linen closet \*Create a space where the owner could retreat and read late… - [Larkwood](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/larkwood-pj-vj~7609803) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 9 - [Delano](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/delano-pj-vj~5357752) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 15 - [Dunbury](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/dunbury-pj-vj~6913289) - Location: Austin, TX - Photos: 22 - [Windward](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/windward-pj-vj~7075919) - Location: Austin, Texas - Photos: 15 - Description: It’s hard to overstate the rough condition this home was in after years of neglect and infestations. Even so, its potential shone through. We reconfigured the floor plan to add in an additional bedroom and two bathrooms, while still making each space more open and bright. We removed the overgrowth of bamboo from the .57 acre lot to reveal a private, park-like setting. In the end we were able to turn this forgotten building into a warm, welcoming, and gorgeous family home. - [Utopia](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/utopia-pj-vj~7609806) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 18 - Description: The clients had a 65-year-old kitchen that needed a cosmetic update plus more functionality.

While some issues were cosmetic, others were structural and dangerous. A double-thickness wall on the back of the house was falling over onto the porch. The posts on the back porch were not sufficient for the weight and the roof was beginning to collapse. Even though the paint on this home did turn out stunning, this home needed way more than just a paint job, so we pulled out all the stops: Rebuilt… - [Hollow Oak](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/hollow-oak-pj-vj~7609812) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 13 - Description: The clients came to us hoping to make smarter use of their space by converting a portion of their garage and two closets into one large multi-purpose hub for their home: \*Completely rework the layout to open up walkways and provide storage \*Create a multi-functional space that serves as a desk, storage, laundry area, and more using custom-painted Ikea cabinets \*Relocate the washer/dryer to a larger space \*Soundproof the wall between the laundry room and kids’ bedroom \*Convert to a tankless water… - [Northdale](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/northdale-pj-vj~7609824) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 15 - Description: With a growing family, the new homeowners needed a larger kitchen and living space to enjoy more family time together and be able to host friends and events for events and holidays.

A: this was a custom color created by the homeowner and designer **Q: Kitchen** *(in Photo Questions)* What sort of wood did you use for the counters? Is it specially treated? Thanks! A: Used Ikea butcher block counters. sand off factory finish. All of it. Stain. Use water lox sealer. No less than 2 coats. **Q: Who makes the roller shades?** *(in Photo Questions)* I love the reverse hung roller shades in the double hung windows. Will you please share with me the name of the manufacturer? This room is serene. Thanks so much A: i was browsing pics and wanted to let you know that i don't think these are reverse hung. those would be going in the opposite direction actually. **Q: Did you guys have this curtain rod custom made?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: The shower curtain thing? Yeah... We made it ourselves. We dont usually outsource projects if we cam figure them out in house. Regular claw foot/pedestal tub enclosures are very narrow. And, we needed to give our chunky bodies extra scrub room while showering as this was our personal home :). A bit of trial and error and I can probably save you a headache if you'd like some instructions for a DIY. Thx. -kristen **Q: OMG! This is almost as bad as the original "kitchen" in my bungalow!** *(in Photo Questions)* Great work!!! A: I LOVE your sink. I just bought a used sink like that for my new house! Would love to see what you do with the space ;) **Q: Grill** *(in Photo Questions)* My house burned down when our grill flamed too close to the siding and wood steps. Your movings yours right? A: This was for staging. Not for grilling ;). Thank you for the heads up though. Will definitely not stage like that again. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
