What we build
Seven ways we work on Austin homes.
Why INLAY
Most remodels don't go wrong on site. They go wrong on paper.
A vague scope becomes a moving price. A moving price becomes a stack of change orders. And the crew that was here every morning in month one is suddenly on someone else's job in month four. Many remodeling problems start the same way: the scope and the cost were never written down clearly.
We work in the opposite order. Design and selections are finished before a price is issued, so the number you sign is built on real drawings, selected materials and trade partner bids. Anything still open, including any allowance, is stated in writing.
Then one lead carpenter stays on your house from demolition to punch list, and you receive written updates as the work moves forward.

How it goes
Five steps, written down before you sign anything.
- 01
Consultation
We walk the house, talk through what you want to change, and give you an honest sense of the budget before anyone commits.
- 02
Design & Selections
Drawings, structural review and key finishes selected early, including tile, stone, plumbing and hardware. Any selection still undecided is documented as an allowance in the written proposal.
- 03
Fixed-Price Proposal
One number, built from trade partner bids on finished drawings. Selections, any allowances and exclusions written out.
- 04
Permitting & Pre-Construction
Submittal and plan review with the reviewing authority. Review calendars belong to the City, and we track yours weekly.
- 05
Construction
One lead carpenter on your house start to finish, a schedule built for your project, and weekly written updates.
Investment
Clear pricing, agreed before we begin.
Every home, every plan and every set of finishes is different, so we prefer to talk through your scope and budget rather than post a figure that may not fit your project.
The written proposal sets out the scope, selections, any allowances, exclusions and the agreed change process. Review these together to understand what the price covers.
- Design and selections first
- Key finishes are selected early. Any undecided selections are documented as allowances in the written proposal, alongside the scope and exclusions.
- One fixed price
- Your trade partner bids are taken on finished drawings. You receive a single contract sum, clearly written, with the selections, any allowances and the exclusions spelled out.
- Changes only by agreement
- Allowance adjustments, scope changes and concealed conditions follow the change process documented in your proposal and signed contract.
- A conversation, not a sales pitch
- Tell us what you have in mind and we will talk openly about budget in our first conversation, so you can plan with confidence.
Your proposal documents selected finishes and any allowances for selections still open.
