South Fort Worth · Since 2018
Kitchens, baths and full-house updates for the brick ranches, older bungalows and newer builder homes on the south side. A Fort Worth crew, working a few miles from where it lives.
Hometown crew
Fort Worth is a city of houses built in layers. Brick ranches from the fifties and sixties, tight Southside bungalows, and newer subdivisions out toward Burleson and Crowley. Each one needs a different plan, and we have opened up plenty of all three.
Our shop is on East Felix Street, and most of our work is within a short drive of it. We know the floor plans, the slab-on-grade surprises and the way a small kitchen sits off a closed-in dining room. We also know you will see us at the grocery store.
What we build is modern and plain: open rooms, good light, clean lines, materials that hold up to Texas summers. Whole houses first, then the kitchens and baths that make them work.
What we build first
Three big jobs fill most of our calendar. Each one starts with a plan for the whole house, even when we only build one room of it.
01
The full update, planned once and built in order. Walls come out between the kitchen and living room, floors run continuous, baths get rebuilt, and lighting and electrical get redone through the whole house. It suits a Wedgwood or Seminary ranch with good bones and a chopped-up plan that no longer fits how you live.
Call about the whole house
02
We rebuild the kitchen around how your household actually cooks. That often means opening a wall to the den, moving the range, adding a real island and putting in proper storage and lighting. Older Fort Worth kitchens are small and boxed in, and a good plan gives them room to breathe.
Call about your kitchen
03
Primary and hall baths taken back to the framing and rebuilt. Walk-in showers with clean glass, double vanities where the room allows, new plumbing and good ventilation. Many mid-century houses here have one cramped bath for the whole family, and we can usually find the space for a second.
Call about your bathThe rest of the house
Nobody here only does kitchens. Additions, outdoor rooms, windows, the front of the house and ground-up builds all run out of the same shop on East Felix Street.
A new primary suite, a bigger family room or a full second story, built to match the brick and roofline you already have.
A backyard apartment or a garage turned into a finished suite with its own kitchen and bath, for family or rental.
Covered patios with a cooking line, bar seating, fans and lighting, made for long North Texas evenings outside.
Stone and concrete patios, retaining walls, walkways and pool decks that connect the back yard to the house.
Whole-house window replacement, wider openings and large sliding doors that pull the back yard into the room.
New siding, brick repair, paint, a better front entry and fresh trim that bring a tired elevation up to date.
Ground-up homes on your lot in south Fort Worth and the suburbs around it, built by the crew that runs our remodels.

How a job runs
Every project follows the same path, from the first call to the day we hand the keys back.
Call the shop and we set a time to see the house. We walk it with you, listen to what is not working and take our own measurements.
You get a plan for the new layout, with walls, windows and rooms shown clearly enough that you can picture living in it.
A written scope lays out what is included, line by line. You read it, ask questions and agree before any material is ordered.
Demo, framing, plumbing and electrical, drywall, tile, cabinets, paint. The same crew, in sequence, with a schedule you can follow.
At the end we go room by room, fix the small stuff on the list and leave the house clean and ready to use.
Why Cowtown
A Seminary ranch and a Crowley builder home need different thinking. We design around what the structure allows, so the result feels like it was always meant to be there.
If a wall is holding up the roof or a slab has moved, we tell you early and plan around it. You hear about surprises from us, not from a change in the bill.
Most of our jobs are a short drive from the shop. We keep the work tidy, respect the street and expect to see you again around town.
Recent work
A few of the houses we have opened up around the south side and the towns past it.
It means planning the whole house as one project. That can include moving walls, rebuilding the kitchen and baths, new floors, lighting and electrical, all scheduled in order. You deal with one crew and one timeline instead of juggling separate contractors for each room.
For a kitchen or a bath, usually not. We seal off the work area and keep a clear path through the house. For a full-house project, we talk it through at the start, because living there during demo gets hard.
Yes, and that is a lot of what we do on the south side. Slab foundations, old drain lines and walls that were never meant to open are familiar. We look at those early so they are in the plan and the price.
A kitchen or bath takes a few weeks on site once materials arrive. A whole-house job takes a few months. We give you a written schedule before we start and tell you right away if anything moves.
We do. Newer homes there have open plans but builder-grade finishes, and many owners want a better kitchen, a bigger primary bath or an addition. If you are near our south Fort Worth shop, call and ask.
Call the shop or send the form. We come out, walk the house and measure. You get a written scope with a price for each part of the job, and the visit costs nothing.
