Custom Guest Houses

“Guest House” can mean a lot of things. To some, it may mean just that: a private place for guests to stay while visiting you in the Hill Country. It can also mean a place for your retiring parent or parents to live. It may even be a place for your “home/office” – a private getaway for you to conduct your home-based business. No matter the use, we can help you put it together and build it for you – from blank sheet of paper to a reality.

Custom Built Workshops

A workshop is a personal place. Size and layout depend on how the workshop is used. These examples are smaller shops used mainly for hobby and craft projects. Larger shops can be built that would accommodate furniture making, lathe works, quilting – even welding and “mechanics”. Our job will be to help you make your dream shop a reality.

Outdoor Cooking Pavilion

A lot of people enjoy outdoor cooking and an outdoor pavilion provides the place to do it. Here are two pictures of pavilions that we have built, but we are not limited to just these styles or plans. We can work with your ideas to get them on paper and make them a reality.

Custom Foreman’s House

Another niche construction need is your Foreman’s house. Of course, this can be very similar to a guest or small house – it depends on the needs of your foreman. As with our other services, we will be glad to sit down with you to develop the plan and scope of your project. Following are pictures of a Foreman’s house we built. It is a 2 Bedroom, 1 Bath, Great Room home used by the line-in Ranch Foreman.

Garage / Storage / Barn

We can also build you that extra storage space (we all seem to always need more storage!). Need a Garage, Barn – we can help. Our same skills used to build new homes can be applied just as easily to provide your extra storage space – whether for storing “stuff”, cars, trucks or your equipment. We can sit down with you and help develop the plan to get you that additional storage. The following are several examples of our storage buildings, barns and garages.

A remodeling project that added this living space where a carport used to be. This addition has 10′ walls of HardiPanel “Stucco” finish with cedar trim and a Standing Seam galvalume roof.
 
Combination, multi-use building: tractor shed and storage on this side and two horse stalls and a feed room on the other side. Exterior is red Grandrib metal with a Galvalume V-crimp roof.
 
12′ x 20′ workshop (including the 4′ front porch). Western Red Cedar siding is stained dark brown and the roof is V-crimp galvalume. Skirting is of the old-fashioned “rock-faced” galvanized metal. The small flakes in the picture is snow – not a grainy picture!
 
Three cabins built for a Bed & Breakfast. The cabins have western red cedar siding and galvanized, V-crimp roofs.
 
This is a larger “out building” we built to be used as both workshop and storage. The siding is western red cedar and roof is Galvalume V-crimp.
 
This large structure is a combination 2-car carport and workshop with porch. The exterior is HardiPlank lap siding with cedar trim and composition shingle roof.
 
Another outdoor cooking and eating pavilion. This one is built on a slab with western red cedar posts and trim and HardiPlank lap siding. Roof is Red V-crimp. Storage and a bathroom is in the enclosed end.
