Where Alpha Construction Is The Better Call
- Your house is in Buda or Kyle. Both are on our service list, with Austin, Cedar Park, Round Rock and Pflugerville. THA Construction & Remodeling lists Austin, Bee Cave, Cedar Park, Georgetown, Hudson Bend, Lakeway, Leander, Pflugerville, Round Rock, Tarrytown and West Lake Hills.
- You want the permitting handled as part of the build, in writing. Our custom home page answers the question directly, and names the City of Austin, Cedar Park, Round Rock and Pflugerville as jurisdictions we file in. THA Construction & Remodeling's site does not state who handles permits on the pages we read.
- You need a commercial finish-out. Our commercial page lists tenant finish-outs, interior build-outs and renovations for office, retail and service businesses, with permitting and inspections managed as part of the build. Their listed services are residential.
- You want a call back on a clock, and a free estimate up front. Every call is returned within two hours during business hours, and the estimate is free with a clear scope and no surprise costs, on a kitchen as much as on a custom home.
- You want a veteran-owned contractor. Alpha Construction is veteran-owned and operated, based in Austin, a NARI award winner and BBB accredited.
Both companies keep a record of the work as it happens, which is rarer than it should be, and both design before they build. If your house is south of the city, or you want the permitting answer in writing and a two-hour call return, call us and we will walk the space and put a scope and a price in writing.
