Where Alpha Construction Is The Better Call
- You want a call back on a clock. Every call is returned within two hours during business hours. That is a commitment on our About page, not a goal. ACE Remodeling TX posts weekday hours and an email address, and states no response time.
- You want a photo record of the job. Every Alpha project is photo-documented from start to finish, on a single bathroom as much as on a whole house, so you can see what went in behind the walls after the walls close.
- You want an address and posted hours before you sign. Ours are in the footer of every page: 1807 Ireland Dr, Austin, Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. ACE Remodeling TX's site lists a phone number, an email address and office hours.
- You want the selections settled before demolition. Our design and planning phase comes first and layout, materials and finishes are locked in before we break ground, whether the job is a kitchen or a ground-up custom home with Pella windows.
- You want a veteran-owned contractor with credentials you can check. Alpha Construction is veteran-owned and operated, based in Austin, a NARI award winner and BBB accredited.
Both companies draw their own plans, handle their own permits and put a free estimate in front of you before a contract. If you want the two-hour call return, the photo record and a posted address on top of that, call us and we will walk the space and put a scope and a price in writing.
