New Braunfels, TX 78130
FAQs
What types of flooring do you install, and do you work with laminate or wood options?
I install both wood and laminate flooring for homes in New Braunfels. Whether you're updating a living room off the Comal River or laying new floors in a Landa Park area home, I handle the whole process—from removing old flooring to proper subfloor prep and trim work. I also offer free estimates so you can get a clear price before we start.
How do you handle fence post instability caused by New Braunfels' soil movement?
New Braunfels has heavy clay soils that expand and contract with moisture, which can shift fence posts over time. To prevent that, I dig post holes at least 24 inches deep—below the frost line—and fill them with a concrete mix designed for better drainage. I also install gravel at the base to reduce water pooling. For wind-prone areas near the Guadalupe River, I add extra bracing brackets to keep panels from loosening in gusts.
Do you replace windows and doors, and is there a warranty on your work?
Yes, I install entry doors, interior doors, and windows for both replacements and new builds. I use quality materials and ensure proper sealing and flashing to handle Texas weather. For the workmanship, I stand behind what I do—every job is done to last. I recommend checking with your window or door manufacturer for their product warranty, and I'm always available to address any installation questions down the road.
