What Austin Homeowners Should Know

Texas requires general contractors to hold a residential contractor registration for most projects. Austin's construction boom has been extraordinary — the city's tech industry growth has driven renovation and custom construction investment at rates among the highest in the US. Travis County's permitting process can run weeks to months, and experienced local general contractors with established inspector relationships can often expedite timelines. Austin's world-class design community means general contractors who work collaboratively with architects and interior designers are particularly in demand for the city's robust high-end residential market.
