Business Background
Old Dog Builders in Killeen, TX brings decades of hands-on experience to every project. Owner James grew up with a grandfather who was a custom cabinet builder and a father who was a design engineer, giving him a natural eye for precision and craftsmanship. After a career in IT QA for large government projects, he shifted to construction in 2006, eventually founding Bulldog Builders in North Dakota. Moving back to Texas in 2021, he relaunched as Old Dog Builders, offering siding, windows, decks, patios, fences, outdoor living spaces, and kitchen/bath remodeling. Local homeowners often face fence issues like rusting metal hardware and post instability from soil movement. James addresses rust by using stainless steel or coated hardware that withstands Central Texas humidity. For post stability, he sets posts with concrete footings and gravel drainage to counteract the expansive clay soil common in Killeen neighborhoods like near Fort Cavazos or Harker Heights. The team takes pride in honest workmanship, treating each home as if it were their own. Whether replacing a deck off Stan Schlueter Loop or building a privacy fence in the Chaparral area, Old Dog Builders delivers lasting results.
Questions and Answers
What types of fences do you install in Killeen?
We specialize in privacy fences using cedar, pine, or vinyl. We also handle gate installation, painting, staining, and weatherproofing. Our team ensures posts are set deep and with proper drainage to withstand local soil movement.
How do you prevent fence hardware from rusting in the Killeen climate?
Killeen's humidity and occasional rain can cause standard hardware to rust. We use stainless steel screws and galvanized or coated brackets and hinges. For extra protection on metal gates, we apply a rust-inhibiting primer and paint.
Can you remodel a small bathroom or only full-size ones?
We handle bathroom remodeling of any size, from powder rooms to master baths. Our services include layout changes, new fixtures, tile, and cabinetry. Every project is tailored to your space and budget, with attention to detail learned from years of custom work.
