Historic Home Remodeling Expertise You Can Trust

Last updated: June 24, 2026

Alamo Heights is one of San Antonio's most architecturally distinctive communities, with pre-war homes along the Broadway corridor dating to the 1920s. Additions and exterior changes in HDRC-regulated blocks require a Certificate of Appropriateness — a step many contractors skip until it becomes a costly permit hold.

We manage HDRC review as a standard part of our pre-construction process: assessing your home's architectural designation, preparing required documentation, and submitting on your behalf before any work begins. Interior work — kitchens, baths, and open-concept layouts — follows the same design-build process, with selections in our design center before construction.

Most Alamo Heights addresses are 15 to 20 minutes from our Jones Maltsberger office via US-281. Alamo Quarry Market and the McNay Art Museum are landmarks our crews pass on every project run in the area.

Alamo Heights remodel context

Why design-build matters here

In Alamo Heights, every remodel has its own context — historic-district review, HOA submittals, larger lots, expansive clay soil on foundations, or matching established architectural styles. Coordinating a separate designer, builder, and suppliers across those constraints is where most projects stall. Our design-build process puts every step under one team, with one fixed price set before construction.

Our process

How San Antonio home remodeling works with our design-build team

One team. One contract. One fixed price.

1

Free in-home estimate

We come to your home, listen to what you want to change, take measurements, and talk through realistic scope and ballpark budget.

2

Design-center selections

You visit our design center to choose cabinets, countertops, tile, fixtures, and finishes in person. The cost of every selection is itemized as you go.

3

Fixed bid & contract

Once selections are final, we lock the price. You sign one contract for the whole project. From here, the budget does not move unless you change scope.

4

Build with in-house crews

Our long-tenured crews execute the work. Your Project Coordinator keeps you updated and handles every question, all under one schedule.

5

Final walkthrough & warranty

We walk the finished space with you, document every detail, and stand behind the work. Most of our business comes from referrals — we build for that.

Why SA Remodel Pros

Six reasons San Antonio homeowners stop calling other contractors after one meeting

Most remodelers either design or build. We do both, in-house, under one contract. That changes everything about how your project runs — and how predictable the budget stays.

50% of our projects come from direct referrals. Here's why.

"From the first design-center visit to the final walkthrough, we had one point of contact and one price that never moved. Our kitchen is unrecognizable in the best way."
Karen M.
Alamo Heights · Kitchen Remodel
"They removed a load-bearing wall and turned three cramped rooms into an open living space. The crew was the same faces every day for weeks — that mattered."
David R.
Stone Oak · Whole-Home Remodel
"Our walk-in shower is gorgeous and finally accessible for my mom. They handled the layout, plumbing, and waterproofing without us chasing anyone."
Patricia L.
Shavano Park · Bathroom Remodel
"We added an in-law suite and you genuinely cannot tell it wasn't part of the original house — the brick and roofline match perfectly."
Miguel A.
Schertz · Home Addition
"Transparent budgeting was the whole reason we picked them, and they delivered. No surprise change orders, no hidden fees."

FAQ

Alamo Heights Remodeling Questions Answered

Answers to questions homeowners in your area typically ask before reaching out.

Do you handle HDRC review for Alamo Heights remodels?
Yes. We manage the Historic Design Review Commission process in-house — preparing your Certificate of Appropriateness application, gathering required documentation, and submitting on your behalf. No separate historic consultant is needed.
Can you match exterior materials on a 1920s home in the Broadway corridor?
Matching the stone, brick, and trim profiles on pre-war homes is a core competency. We source period-appropriate materials and apply the same craftsmanship standards as our luxury custom work — additions and repairs look like they were always there.
Do you work in the Olmos Park area adjacent to Alamo Heights?
Yes. Olmos Park has its own historic character and tree-preservation rules, separate from Alamo Heights. We are familiar with both city jurisdictions and handle permits for each separately.
What remodel types are most common in Alamo Heights homes?
Kitchen expansions and bath updates are the most frequent projects here — older, smaller layouts that don't match the size of the homes themselves. Structural wall removals to create open-concept living spaces are also common across the **Olmos Park** area and **Lincoln Heights**.
Do interior remodels trigger historic review in Alamo Heights?
Interior remodels typically don't require HDRC review. Exterior changes — additions, window replacements, porch modifications — may require a Certificate of Appropriateness depending on your block's designation. We assess this during the initial walk-through and flag any review requirements upfront.
