These clients loved the historic details of their classic Portland Bungalow, but wished for modern updates to improve livability. We were able to capture square footage to the kitchen by removing an unused chimney allowing us to increase additional work surface with the addition of a narrow island. Where traffic flow previously moved directly across the work triangle, the new layout keeps cooking activities within one zone of the kitchen and shifting traffic flow to another zone, allowing their daughter and four-legged family members to run through the space freely! High-end appliances create a luxury cooking experience. Crisp surfaces and colors create a light and bright space while classically sized crown and trim profiles draw the eye up and around the room offering a feeling of expanse in a modestly sized footprint. The blue and white color pallet offer a subtle reminder to coastal and tropical environments … the client’s favorite place to escape!

Recently completed a full roof replacement in North Austin after the homeowner’s insurance claim was approved following severe hail and wind damage. After a thorough inspection, our team documented the storm-related impacts, assisted throughout the claims process, and installed a completely new roofing system built for long-term performance in the Texas climate. This project included a full tear-off of the existing roof, upgraded synthetic underlayment, new flashing, proper attic ventilation improvements, and premium architectural shingles selected for durability, energy efficiency, and curb appeal. Our crew maintained a clean and organized job site throughout the installation and completed a detailed final walkthrough to ensure everything met both manufacturer specifications and local building codes. Storm damage is one of the leading causes of roof replacement in North Austin, especially after hail events and strong seasonal winds. Warning signs can include missing shingles, bruising, granule loss, water stains, active leaks, lifted flashing, and aging roofing materials. For homeowners searching for North Austin roof replacement, hail damage roofing contractor, insurance claim roof replacement, roof inspection near me, or storm restoration services in Austin, Driftwood Builders Roofing provides expert inspections, transparent communication, and high-quality workmanship from start to finish.

The Murray small kitchen remodel demonstrated the immense potential of a small kitchen makeover. We started by stripping everything to the studs, enabling us to redesign the layout and make adjustments to the kitchen's overall flow. In the design layout, we closed off a doorway to allow more wall space for additional full custom cabinetry and appliances, enhancing the kitchen's functionality. We extended the counters and repositioned the refrigerator to improve the workspace and flow. The new island, highlighted with pendant lighting and set on stylish hardwood flooring, became the focal point, providing extra counter space and a gathering spot. Additional features like under-cabinet lighting, a touch-activated faucet, and a custom hood boosted the kitchen's overall appeal and practicality. Modern elements like the integrated speed oven in the island cabinetry, and the new hardwood flooring throughout, completed the transformation. The Murray kitchen remodel project successfully combined style and function, transforming a modest kitchen into a warm, inviting, and efficient space.
