Established homes, wooded lots and steep driveways call for a contractor who understands what’s under the finishes. We remodel, add on, and fix the structure and drainage that older Mountain Brook homes often need.
Many Mountain Brook homes were built decades ago on hillside lots around Mountain Brook Village, Crestline Village and English Village, and along the Shades Creek corridor. They have great bones, but remodels here regularly uncover things a newer house wouldn’t: undersized framing, settled floors, outdated systems, or water that has been finding its way under the house for years.
Because our leadership is grounded in engineering, we plan for those surprises up front. And because we also do excavation, grading and drainage, we can fix the cause instead of just the symptom. Narrow streets, mature trees and close neighbors mean careful staging and a clean job site, and we run our projects that way.
Common projects we take on in Mountain Brook:
Kitchens, baths and whole-home renovations that update the house while respecting its character.
Stone and block walls that stabilize steep, wooded lots and look right alongside the house.
Fixes for water collecting around foundations, under crawl spaces and in low spots of the yard.
Driveways, walkways, steps and patios built for sloped lots and finished to last.
Careful selective demo for remodels, plus full tear-downs ahead of rebuilds.
Careful excavation for additions and foundations on tight, tree-lined lots.
Our owner is an engineer with 22+ years in the field, so every project is planned for structural integrity, durability, and efficiency.
Excavation, grading, drainage, concrete and remodeling under one licensed general contractor, so nothing falls between separate companies.
Clear, consistent communication from first call to final walkthrough, and every call returned within two business days.
We serve customers in both English and Spanish, so everyone feels confident and understood throughout the project.

Yes. We remodel kitchens and bathrooms, build additions and take on whole-home renovations. With older homes we plan for what’s behind the walls, and as a licensed general contractor we can handle the structural or drainage issues that surface along the way. See our home remodeling services.
Often, yes. We handle the excavation, foundation and grading as well as the framing and finish work, so site constraints get planned for from the start instead of discovered mid-project.
Water under a house usually traces back to grading or drainage around it. We find where it’s coming from and fix it at the source with regrading, drains or a combination. Learn more about our grading and drainage work.
