Kendall County communities we cover
Most of our work here centers on Boerne and the subdivisions and acreage around it, including areas along the Fair Oaks Ranch border and the roads out toward Kendalia and Sisterdale. Farther northwest, we also work in Comfort, with its older German heritage homes and newer houses on the edge of town.
Ranch properties scattered across the county often sit at the end of long private drives. We plan deliveries and work days with that distance in mind.
Comfort sits farther out along I-10, and its older homes near the historic center often have small kitchens and baths tucked into thick-walled rooms. Newer homes around Boerne lean larger, with open plans and big primary suites, so our plans differ a lot depending on which end of the county you live in.

What a primary bath remodel looks like in a Kendall County custom home
Custom homes here often have generous primary baths that feel dated: a big jetted tub on a tiled deck, a small shower, cultured marble vanities and a vaulted ceiling with a single light. A primary bath remodel usually swaps the deck tub for a freestanding one, expands the shower into a walk-in with a bench and multiple heads, and brings in two vanities with real drawer storage.
Vaulted ceilings and big windows need extra thought. Tile up to a high ceiling adds cost, while stopping at a set height can look intentional with the right trim. We’ll plan lighting at several levels and talk through privacy for windows that face open land.
- Remove the deck tub and check the slab beneath
- Expand or reposition the shower drain, cutting rock if needed
- Waterproof, tile and set the freestanding tub
- Install vanities, glass, lighting and the exhaust fan
Custom kitchens for Hill Country homes
Kitchens in Kendall County homes tend to be large, with stone accents, beams and big windows. The challenge is often making a large room work better rather than finding more space. Custom cabinets let us fill angled walls, tall ceilings and odd corners with useful storage, and plan an island sized for how the family really uses it.
Older homes in Boerne and Comfort may have smaller kitchens, uneven floors and stone walls that aren’t flat. We scribe cabinets and tops to fit, and choose materials like painted wood, honed stone and handmade tile that suit the age of the house.
Rock, wells, septic and how scheduling works across the county
Shallow limestone is common across Kendall County, so moving a drain or running new gas lines often means cutting rock, which takes time. Many homes use private wells with hard water, so softeners and easy-to-descale fixtures are worth planning. Septic systems need to handle any added fixtures, so we ask about your system early.
Boerne is up I-10 from our northwest San Antonio office, and Comfort is farther along. We plan visits and work days in blocks to keep trips efficient. Permits depend on your address: the City of Boerne for homes inside its limits, and Kendall County for unincorporated property. Our hard water guide has more on protecting new fixtures.
The phone is answered around the clock. Call us and a designer will set a time to come see the house.
- Rock cutting for drains and gas can add time
- Long private drives can complicate stone and tub deliveries
- Septic capacity limits big tubs and multiple shower heads
- Hard well water scales glass and fixtures quickly
Remodels we do most in Kendall County
Master Bathroom Remodel
A master bath has to handle two people getting ready at once, plus the slow evenings when one of you wants a long soak. We design these rooms for both, with room to move and storage where it’s needed.
Custom Kitchen Cabinets
Stock cabinets come in three-inch steps, and real kitchens rarely do. We design custom cabinets around your walls, appliances and the way you cook, so the filler strips disappear and every inch does a job.
Freestanding Tub Installation
A freestanding tub turns a primary bath into a room you want to linger in. Getting one right is mostly about the parts you never see: drain placement, floor strength, the filler, and enough clearance to clean around it.
Kitchen Remodeling
A good kitchen remodel starts with the house, not a catalog photo. We design and build full kitchen remodels across San Antonio, sorting out layout, plumbing, power and permits before anyone picks a cabinet color.
Walk-In Shower Installation
A walk-in shower looks simple: tile, a drain and a sheet of glass. The part that decides whether it lasts is underneath, in the slope, the pan and the membrane, and that’s where we spend the most care.

Kendall County remodeling questions
Do you remodel homes outside Boerne in Kendall County?
Yes. Along with Boerne, we work in Comfort, Kendalia, Sisterdale and ranch properties across the county. Remote properties may take more planning for deliveries and travel, so we group visits by area. Call with your address and we’ll explain how we’d schedule your project.
Is shallow rock a problem for Kendall County bathroom remodels?
It can add time and cost when drains need to move. Slabs here often sit directly on limestone, and cutting through rock for a new shower drain is slower than digging through soil. Keeping drains near their current locations helps. We check the layout and explain the tradeoffs during the walkthrough.
What permits do Kendall County remodels need?
Homes inside Boerne’s city limits use the City of Boerne for plumbing and electrical permits. Unincorporated properties fall under Kendall County, which also oversees septic. We confirm what’s required for your address before work starts and handle the paperwork so inspections fit into the schedule.
