If you contact us, we can email you a list of past clients with whom you can speak. Our mission is to help as many people as possible with their construction needs. Sadly, that means half of our work is fixing what other contractors have done wrong. While we enjoy working with clients who have standard-type jobs, where we really get excited is with the more complicated/tricky jobs, for both residential and commercial projects. We are also very comfortable with permitted and inspected projects. Our team LOVES the thrill of seeing our work come to completion, resulting in happy customers. Our costs do tend to run above-average and for our clients, the results are worth it. We also stand behind all of our work. Our business model is radically different from the common ones you'll find here in Texas. Just a few examples include: -We do 90% of our work in-house (preferring not to use subcontractors) -Once we start a project, we don't like to stop till it is done -We use workers with FAR more training than what other companies offer -We rarely ask for deposits over 10% -We utilize tangible checkpoint payments -We offer experienced supervision and project management -We provide highly detailed scopes of work in our quotes ### Services Provided - Home Remodeling - Bathroom Remodeling - Kitchen Remodeling - General Contracting - Home Additions - Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) - Deck Building - Basement Remodeling - Garage Building - Home Restoration - Project Management - Tile Installation - Attic Conversion - Carpentry - Finish Carpentry - Mold Removal & Remediation - Rooftop Deck Installation ### Areas Served - Austin - Pflugerville - Lakeway - Bee Cave - Dripping Springs - Shady Hollow - Lost Creek - West Lake Hills - Barton Creek - Onion Creek - Rollingwood - Sunset Valley - San Leanna - Bear Creek - Hays - Driftwood ### Typical Job Cost $2,000 - 500,000 Most companies our size won't do smaller projects. Note that we do not provide quotes for projects of less than $6,000, but we WILL do them on a time and material basis of $70/man hour). If you provide pictures, we CAN give a ballpark estimate range for these smaller projects. ## Business Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Business Name | Patriot Construction and Handyman Service | | Address | Austin, Texas 78737, United States | | Phone | (951) 756-1402 | | Website | http://patriotconstructionaustin.com | | Followers on Houzz | 3 | ## Contact - **Houzz profile:** [Patriot Construction and Handyman Service](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/general-contractors/patriot-construction-and-handyman-service-pfvwus-pf~346690101) - **Website:** http://patriotconstructionaustin.com - **Phone:** (951) 756-1402 ## Credentials - **Best of Houzz:** 1 award (2025), for Service. ## Reviews **Overall rating: 5.0 out of 5 — 10 reviews** *Aspect averages:* - Work Quality: 5.0 - Communication: 5.0 - Value: 5.0 ### All 10 reviews **★★★★★ — Chris Hagen, March 2024** > Knowledge, fair, and honest. Used them multiple times. Paul, Garrett, and Kurt have all been to my house and would trust them around my family and certainly their work. They stand behind it as well in case a 2nd visit is needed. **★★★★★ — HU-790715400, Feb. 2024** > Patriot was very prompt, professional and courteous in every aspect of the job. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Paul and his employers. **★★★★★ — Joel Martin, Feb. 2024** > Less than a year after we moved in, we discovered mold in our "new" kitchen (my wife is very sensitive). Patriot Construction knew exactly what to do to handle the situation safely and also whom to contact regarding the testing (hint: it did not involve bleach or DIY air samples). In addition to having the proper equipment, they were really good at explaining the different options and what each one might cost. They also could have taken advantage of the situation and told us that we needed an entirely new kitchen, but instead, their in-house master carpenter was able to build the needed cabinets to match the existing ones. We highly recommend them and will use them again on future projects. **★★★★★ — Broadview Development, Feb. 2024** > Patriot is reliable and efficient. Paul (Sensitive Information Hidden) is an excellent businessman with broad knowledge of design and construction. The company has dedicated workers and they pro-actively resolve problems / issues in the field. As an architect, I have worked with Patriot on several dozen homebuilding and remodeling projects. Mr. Harms spends the time to talk thru and understand design intent. The Patriot Team is prompt, well-organized, and concerned about customer satisfaction. They are highly recommended by my company as a capable source of quality renovation and construction services. > Steven L. (Sensitive Information Hidden), AIA, Architect **★★★★★ — rebecca, Feb. 2024** > I have used Patriot Handyman services for over 5 years now. Everything from full bedroom bathroom remodel, plumbing, electrical, and outdoor deck. Paul has put together a team of wonderful trustworthy professionals. His prices are very competitive and fair. Especially because you can’t put a price tag on integrity, honesty, and good communication. I highly recommend them for any of your projects. There are so many horror stories out there with bad construction work. You won’t have to deal with any of that if you use this company’s services. A+ **★★★★★ — Bethany Coplan, Feb. 2024** > I hired Patriot Construction for some general work around my home. They were very professional and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. I will definitely hire them again! **★★★★★ — HU-98738581, Feb. 2024** > My husband and I hired Patriot Construction to update a single family residential house after the tenant left the property after living there 15 years. The tenant was a retired teacher who towards the end of his residency was not able to keep the house and yard clean or well maintained. What we thought would be a minor updating turned into a major renovation which the house solely needed. Owner, Paul, and his crew quickly and efficiently went to work to point out the plumbing, electrical and decor problems the house that needed to be fixed or updated. He has employees who are very knowledgeable and experienced in all of the building trades. They are very courteous and hardworking. The updated rental house turned out beautifully and was quickly rented when put back on the market. We continue to use Patriot Construction for our own personal home projects as well as other rental properties we own. We highly recommend them for any construction or handyman projects you may have. **★★★★★ — Dick Carder, Feb. 2024** > they did an great job on my roof repair in a timely manner and have very good men that work for Paul at Patriot Construction and would recommend this company to anyone that need some work done by there handyman service. **★★★★★ — Home renovations, Feb. 2024** > Paul and Patriot construction are true professionals that have your best interests and budget in mind. Many contractors will charge you excessively and perform unnecessary work. Patriot does neither. I trust them implicitly. **★★★★★ — Attic Conversion, Feb. 2024** > The team at Patriot converted my attic space above my garage into storage space. I received a quote on day one and that is what was paid when the job was completed a few weeks later. The team suggested I add a few things like wiring and paint enhancements which were clearly quoted and agreed upon beforehand. > > Overall loved their service and will use them again in the future for other remodeling services. ## Selected projects - [Circle C Shady Hollow shower/bathroom remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/circle-c-shady-hollow-shower-bathroom-remodel-pj-vj~7388000) - Location: Austin, TX - Photos: 5 - Description: This shower was part of a complete master bath remodel that included custom shelving in the closet and custom vanities and tile work around the tub. The shower was about 14k and involved demo of a handicap tub and plumbing. It also involved stackstone/ledgerstone which, itself, cannot be waterproofed which makes it critical that the walls behind it ARE impervious. The entire bathroom/closet remodel was about 45k. - [Round Rock Trex deck](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/round-rock-trex-deck-pj-vj~7388874) - Location: Round Rock, TX - Photos: 5 - [Round Rock new attached garage](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/round-rock-new-attached-garage-pj-vj~7388524) - Location: Round Rock, TX - Photos: 3 - [Central Austin deck & patio addition](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/central-austin-deck-and-patio-addition-pj-vj~7389047) - Location: Austin, TX - Photos: 9 - [Round Rock attic conversion](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/round-rock-attic-conversion-pj-vj~7388801) - Location: Round Rock, TX - Photos: 6 - Description: This was an unusually large attic conversion project. It added 330 s.f. of living space, and 180 s.f of storage space (too low per code to be considered "living space" even though you could step into it). Also, we converted the large adjacent bonus room into a bedroom with closet, flanked by a hallway leading to this area. We love doing tricky structural projects, which is good because a lot of that type of work was required to get this done. The owners DID take our advice and brought in an engi… - [Lakeway new bathroom addition](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lakeway-new-bathroom-addition-pj-vj~7388516) - Location: Lakeway, TX - Photos: 6 - Description: The only downstairs bathroom/powder room in this house was in the Master Suite. The client wanted a downstairs guest bathroom. We avoided cutting into the slab by installing a back flow toilet which was directed to a pump beneath the stairs. This was routed UP to the toilet drain upstairs. All the mudwork is Level 5 smooth coat. We ran 2 new electrical circuits for the pump and the fan/light and installed a sink. We used a solid core door and insulated the walls, including the closet under the s… - [Northwest Hills full remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/northwest-hills-full-remodel-pj-vj~7392299) - Location: Austin, TX - Photos: 5 - [Austin kitchen remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/austin-kitchen-remodel-pj-vj~7388725) - Location: Austin, TX - Photos: 3 - [Cedar Park Loft conversion-addition](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/cedar-park-loft-conversion-addition-pj-vj~7390063) - Location: Austin, TX - Photos: 11 - Description: This was another project where our knowledge and experience regarding structural changes was utilized. The family (with 7 children) had a 2nd floor open space and wanted to turn part of it into a (large) separate bedroom, another part of it into a hallway, two parts of it into play/study areas and another part (over the entry foyer) into a yoga/play/study area. We looked at the space and the structural elements involved, and came up with a game plan to maximize the space while simultaneously inc… [See all 9 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/general-contractors/patriot-construction-and-handyman-service-pfvwus-pf~346690101) --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
