See the Detailed Process That Ensures Quality

From Dream to Done

When it comes to home renovation in South Austin and nearby areas such as Kyle and Buda, homeowners turn to ET’s Home Renovation for a process that is organized, respectful, and results-driven. We do not just show up and start tearing things apart. We start by listening, understanding your goals, your space, and what matters most to you. Then we guide you through every step to make sure your renovation feels as smooth as it looks. From kitchens and bathrooms to whole-home updates, we are here to help you build something better without the usual stress.

Our Home Renovation Process

01

inspect

Before we do anything else, we start with the problem you’re facing.

    • We don’t just assume; we take the time to understand it fully.
    • We ask questions to hear your experience: What’s your vision for the space? How do you want it to function and feel? What details matter most to you?
    • We review any photos or videos you provide through our appointment form.
    • We schedule an in-person visit if needed to check structural concerns or hidden damage.
    • We inspect the surrounding areas to identify whether it’s an isolated issue or part of a larger one.

This step allows us to deliver a renovation plan that is precise, intentional, and prevents future problems.

02

Plan

Next, we craft a game plan.

 

    • As a company built by a former project manager, we know how critical it is to be prepared before any tools come out.
    • We document the renovation scope in writing.
    • We define labor, tools, and material needs.
    • We estimate cost and outline your payment schedule.
    • For larger renovations such as roofing, siding, or flooring, we assign team roles and delivery timelines.
    • We send a clear written proposal for approval before starting.
    • Before any work begins, you’ll receive a personalized video walkthrough from Everend, explaining the full scope of your project—from design and materials to timeline and overall investment. It’s a clear, no-pressure way to see exactly what’s planned, understand every detail, and move forward with total confidence.
    • Planning is the key to avoiding miscommunication and keeping your project stress free.

03

SCHEDULE

Once the plan is approved, we work with your calendar to pick a start date that fits.

    • We confirm access to the worksite, such as key handoff or lockbox.

 

    • We provide you with a clear project window and daily schedule expectations.

 

    • If you’re not home during work, we ensure you receive regular updates.

 

    • Scheduling is not just about blocking time; it is about respecting yours.

 

04

prep the site

On the day of the job, we arrive on time and begin with job site preparation.

    • We protect flooring, furniture, and valuables near the work area.

 

    • We clearly mark tools and supplies to keep the area safe.

 

    • We review the plan with you or your designated contact before starting.

 

Clean work begins with a clean setup.

05

RenovatE

This is where the craftsmanship happens.

    • Our team performs the renovation as planned, with an eye for detail and quality.

 

    • We use durable materials and trusted techniques.

 

    • We minimize disruption and noise as much as possible.

 

    • If we discover unexpected conditions, we pause and consult you before continuing.

 

    • We clean up the site at the end of each workday.

 

  • Whether it’s a full kitchen transformation or creating a custom outdoor living space, we handle every detail from start to finish.

 

Whether it’s a full kitchen transformation or creating a custom outdoor living space, we handle every detail from start to finish. Our goal is always the same: a professional renovation done right.

06

final review

Once the renovation is complete, we walk through the work with you.

  • We review everything line by line against the original plan.

  • We address any final questions or touch ups.

  • If you’re satisfied, we collect the final payment.

  • We do not leave until the job is done to our standards and yours.

07

ongoing support

After the job, our relationship is not over.

    • You receive documentation for your records.

 

    • We offer a one-year craftsmanship warranty on all renovation work.

 

    • If anything comes up, we are one phone call away.

 

    • We believe good renovations and good relationships should last.

 

08

Now it’s time to enjoy the results.

  • You get to live in a space that feels refreshed, functional, and more like home.

I met Everend through a contractor coaching program we were both part of, and it was clear right away that he knows his craft. He’s direct, thoughtful, and never afraid to share what he really thinks. When you talk to him, you can tell he’s coming from real experience, not just opinions. Over time, I’ve seen how much he cares about the people he works with— his clients & team. He handles challenges head-on and always follows through on what he says. Everend brings a level of professionalism and steadiness that’s rare in this industry. He’s the kind of builder you can count on, dependable, fair, and genuinely invested in doing right by everyone involved. I would absolutely recommend ET’s Home Renovation.

ET built a steel frame for shade sails in my backyard, and it completely transformed the space. I’ve loved having a cooler, more inviting place to garden and enjoy nature. When I noticed the fascia needed reinforcement recently, they came right out and took care of it. Great service, great people, attention to detail (caulking, cleanup, etc) — I highly recommend them.

I've had the pleasure of meeting Everend Thorne through JobTread — a software platform we both use to run our remodeling businesses. Through this community of 7,500+ builders, we've connected and developed a professional relationship over the last year through a roundtable group. Our group meets regularly twice a month via Zoom — and we talk mostly about business, but also about life, overall health, the ups and downs of running your own company, raising a family, our relationship with the Lord — just being real with one another. That’s really what we aim for. Everend is an easy person to like and trust because he’s incredibly authentic — which makes him a great asset to our group. What I appreciate most about Everend is that he lets you know what he’s thinking through the questions he asks. And if he feels strongly about something, he’ll just tell you straight up: “This is what you need to do.” Through many examples in numerous conversations, I’ve learned first hand how he solves issues and fights for his customers, his employees, and his subcontractors. Remodeling is a hard tough business model. We all know this truth- Which is why it is real important - if you're a customer looking for a builder for your next remodel, you definitely want to being working with professionals who lead with integrity and hold themselves and their teams to high standards. That’s been my experience with ET Remodeling.

I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know Everend Thorne over the past two years through various industry and leadership groups, and I’ve been continually impressed by both his personal and professional growth. What stands out most about Everend is his determination to perfect his craft and his commitment to running a company that reflects integrity, stewardship, and excellence. I’ve watched him grow ET’s Home Renovation from a small home repair operation into a full-service renovation company that serves homeowners and investors throughout the South Austin area. ET’s Home Renovation isn’t just another contractor—it’s a company built on strong values, craftsmanship, and a genuine respect for clients, their homes, and the environment. Everend and his team live out their mission of providing “craftsman quality renovation services with a high level of respect leading to 100% satisfaction.” Even though I work in the Atlanta market, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Everend and his team to anyone in Austin who is seeking a trustworthy, skilled, and values-driven contractor. If you’re looking for a renovation experience marked by professionalism, quality, and care, ET’s Home Renovation is an excellent choice.

ET's Home Repair has been there when I needed them! They are fast in responding, efficient, honest, reasonably priced, and best of all, they do excellent work. Their process is great; Everend (the owner) sends videos outlining all the work to be done, along with a written proposal, so I always have a full understanding of the project and scope of work. I've used them for a couple of recent projects, including replacing the railings of my front porch with something more eye-appealing and sturdy, and also some cabinet work in my kitchen. I plan on using them again in the near future!
