My wife & I highly recommend TRS Build for any home renovation projects. We wanted to completely redo our master bathroom and they surpassed all expectations. This small firm has a very dedicated team of highly experienced professionals. They are very especially attentive and timely deliver excellent craftsmanship. Annemarie, Shaniko, Walter, Javier and the rest of their team quickly responded to all our questions whether by text, phone or email. They oversaw each worker and were quick to make any changes we requested along the way. Their services are very reasonably priced. We are thrilled with the result and highly recommend this wonderful firm. read more

Since the time we moved into our house 9 years ago, we had been wanting to replace our fireplace stone with something more contemporary. Finally, we found TRS and their team who made this dream and many mores come true! This ended up being a remodel of our entire living room. We added a wine cellar under our stairs which now is a prime spot where we hangout with our frds and relatives. At first, it seemed almost impossible to imagine a beautiful wine cellar with storage built in given the how complicated it was to get access to our under the stairs area. But TRS made it possible. So was the case with our accent wall - It seemed it was going to be hard to get a very well executed accent wall for a space with high ceilings but the results were phenomenal. It has been wonderful working with the whole team from start to finish. The design time, on-boarding team, executing team and the final commencement team - everyone worked so well together. We always felt we were taken care of and the whole tea, listened to all our feedback so patiently and executed on it flawlessly. They has set up a great process where they take client input and set expectations with their designs so we can ensure that we are on the same page, at all times. There are no unpleasant surprises when it comes to execution as well as pricing. Im so glad we discovered TRS - I highly recommend this for your next remodel. We would love to work with TRS again for our next remodel (master bedroom). read more

When we first set out to build our addition, we had a general sense of what we wanted, but we didn't know how to get there, how long it would take, or what it would cost. After several interviews with companies around Austin, it was ultimately the sense of genuine honesty and caring from Annemarie that made TRS Build the obvious choice. TRS Build guided us through the entire process, from design to construction, taking care to work around our busy lives (we had a baby and broke ground at nearly the same time!). During the design phase, TRS Build provided several options based on our general ideas and some photos of rooms/styles we liked. We also had several iterations of material selection based on choices presented by the team which helped us not be overwhelmed with the immense variety that exists. After design, came the long wait for permits, which honestly was the toughest part of the entire experience. TRS Build handled all of this for us, and communicated often to ensure we knew the status and what to expect next. Ultimately this step was entirely up to the city and out of our hands. Once permits were granted we moved to the exciting and chaotic construction stage. At this point we had a newborn and spent a few months sleeping in our living room or at our in-laws'. TRS Build was completely understanding of our situation and though there were many new faces and noises throughout the day, we never felt like our lives were too disrupted by the construction. One thing I'd like to add is that, while sometimes communication was a bit delayed, all of my questions and requests were ultimately addressed to my satisfaction. In the end, it's difficult to convey just how happy we are with the job done by TRS Build. Our family was quickly outgrowing the space, and the addition designed and built by TRS Build has given us some much needed breathing room. We now have a beautiful master bedroom and a sanctuary of a master bathroom that includes a walk in shower & tub area which our entire family (kids included) absolutely love. In fact, we look forward to family bath time because the wet room makes it so easy! We're a few months post-construction now and I can still confidently say without a doubt that we are so happy we chose TRS Build for our project and will happily choose them again for future projects. Thank you again to Annemarie, Shaniko, Jenny, Gaby, Irama, Mary, and all the subs! read more

My home finally feels like a home thanks to TRS Build. A+ service. read more

We hired TRS to do an addition and partial kitchen remodel. It's been almost 7 months since we moved back into our home on December 14th 2021. TRS did not pass the final inspection until 3/14/22. After the final inspection, we asked TRS to come over and do a final walkthrough so we could discuss the issues we had found with their work. TRS advised us at that time that they had already done a final walkthrough (without us) in December of 2021 and they demanded final payment. They stated they would not come over to look at the problems until after we paid them the remaining balance (appx $7K or 5% of 135K). Changes were made to our home, in order to pass code, until March of 2022. We asked multiple times for Shaniko and Anne Marie to come over and they refused. We found it difficult to understand how they felt proud of their work when they did their "final walk through." We have incorrect siding on our home which is a pretty huge oversight. This is just one of the many major oversights. Was it an oversight that caused our entire tile floor to be installed incorrectly? We hired a tile inspector ($750) to prove that the tile floor was installed incorrectly. The tile inspector's report shows that every step of the tile floor installation was done incorrectly. The kitchen backsplash is also a mess. Messy grout lines, tiles smeared with grout, a large gap between the tile and the wall. It looks very unprofessional. We were told that the lower cabinets in our kitchen would be potentially damaged when the old countertop was removed and the area would need a change order to repair. No mention was ever made of the damage, instead TRS put the new countertop on without making any repairs. We have holes and unevenness all along the underside of the countertop. One of these holes face our dining area and can be seen easily when standing in certain parts of our home. Yet, somehow this passed the TRS "final walk through" that was done without us. These are just a few of the obvious things. Some other areas that were terrible were: -You can see drywall taping and floating on several walls. -The back deck slopes even though the foundation is brand new and we used Trex Composite Decking. -The door to the garage looks like a hotel room or office building exit because the TRS used a cheap fix in hopes of passing code. Shaniko said they would fix the door after passing inspection but that hasn't happened. -The lights flicker and the breakers often flip-even though all the electrical is brand new. -The windows have adhesive/silicone that is not removable in several spots. These are 5' x 7' windows which should look beautiful looking out into our backyard. Instead they are smeared. -A piece of broken siding was used to close the crawl space under our home instead of a metal grate. - Security camera/light that was installed is unusable because TRS installed without allowing us time to set up the security camera portion of the light and did not respond to our requests to come over and take the light down so that we could set up the security camera option. -TRS foundation crew did not follow the structural engineer report and we had to pay $3000 extra for additional structural engineering so that they could fix what the TRS did. -Multiple incorrect billing invoices. All were overcharges. -Our home was left unlocked three times during the project. On two of these occasions the doors were left completely open. -Our new island cabinets are 2" shorter than the original cabinets that back up to it. The original cabinets are 2" from the floor but TRS "custom made cabinets" are 4" from the floor. Communication was difficult with TRS. Many questions/concerns went unanswered and were never addressed or only partially addressed. There was an obvious lack of organization and leadership. We suffered through many delays due to lack of organization/project management. It does not appear that the work was done professionally or that there was pride in the work performed. read more

TRS Build - General Contractors Near Me - Cedar Park, Texas

We hired The Right Stage- TRS Build to do an 800 SF addition connecting onto our existing home. Basically building an entire small house from the ground up! They created a beautiful and functional handicapped accessible space/ home for my 81 year old mother. A change in life circumstances necessitated her either moving to an assisted/independent living facility (which during Covid wasn't really an option) or build on to our home and create her own "apartment." Due to our families situation, this was a very emotional and stressful time for us. Shaniko and Annemarie were very understanding, respectful and became almost like family to us as they helped us navigate through every phase of this build. We had an unusual site location and footprint we were working with in regards to where we wanted this addition to be built. AnneMarie worked patiently and diligently with me (and my mom) on the design, floor plan and layout, and the many tweaks we requested to get it just right, all while keeping within our desired budget. Every step of the way they kept in constant communication with me, and I knew what to expect each week. I know it was a big undertaking and was truly amazing to see it all come together. This review is long overdue, but I cannot imagine working with any other team. More than 5 Stars is deserved!!! read more

On a personal level, The Right Stage helped our family with several aspects of building our own home such as interior and exterior masonry, flooring, carpentry, trim, and our driveway to name a few. Shaniko is incredible with detail, management, organization, style, and value suggestions. On a professional level, as a licensed Realtor®, knowing Shaniko personally, and his standard of excellence and value makes it easy for me to refer him to my real estate clients who have all been happy with his work and professionalism. The Right Stage is the right way! read more

The Right Stage did pre-listing work for one of my clients. I was very impressed with Shaniko's instinct and eye for what improvements would give them the best bang for the buck and the best value in terms of sales price. The work was done quickly and efficiently and the property was transformed beautifully. Thanks to Shaniko for pointing my clients in the right direction. Because of "The Right Stage", the property sold the first weekend at the highest sales price in the neighborhood at that time. read more

I read good reviews on Angies List and called. From the first call I was happily surprised. Very professional. Very thoughtful. This is a great team. I would recommend them over 3 other companies I initially contacted for our house remodel and garage conversion. They definitely go the extra mile. Highly Recommend. read more

We hired The Right Stage to renovate our outdoor patio. We had been searching for years and when we met Shaniko and Annemarie, we knew we were finally going to make our dream a reality. They first came to our home to survey the space and then they LISTENED to what we were envisioning. They didn't try to sell us on anything. They just listened and that was really big for us. They were prompt with a quote and adjusted it as we figured out more of what we wanted. We had a two man team on our property most of the time doing the demo, concrete, and build. THEY WERE FANTASTIC!!! We watched them everyday and they are some of the hardest working people I've ever seen. Shaniko came by EVERYDAY to inspect the work. Let me say that again...The owner of this business came onsite to check out the work himself everyday. At the end, we are thrilled with our patio. We knew exactly what was happening and when it was happening throughout the project. We plan on hiring them again for our next project and you should too!!! read more

The team was fantastic and flexible. They were great to work with and had great ideas. The quality of the work was excellent and they walked us through every stage of the process. We would highly recommend working with Shaniko and Annemarie and their team read more

Thanks to TRS, our kitchen and entire downstairs remodel turned out even better than we had ever imagined. Their input and design ideas were spot on in understanding our vision, and everyone was so friendly and professional throughout the entire project. We can't thank them enough for the outcome of the remodel and already have plans for a few other projects with them! If we could give six stars, we would have. read more

Shaniko and his team did an awesome job on our kitchen. It was a full remodel and I'm so glad I picked his company. Thank You Shaniko!

TRS Build just completed our whole home remodel we could not be happier and completely satisfied with the results. The communication from planning through construction was impressive. Everything ran on time and within budget. There was never a question on what was going to happen when and how much is this going to cost. They were completely transparent, professional and respectful of our home. One of the many great things they have is an amazing design team that provides 3D imaging and virtual walk throughs of you home with all the materials you choose before any construction or final budgeting - even with the slightest changes, they will send you new imaging so you can get a virtual feel of how the home will look. Every week during construction, we received and email of what is planned for the week that may include some action items for us. There's also group text communication alongside the weekly emails that allows you to ask any questions at any time during the process and we always received prompt responses. We now have a completely new home and more fitting for our family with: enlarged and updated bathrooms, an additional bathroom, a new living area extension, updated kitchen, a new laundry room and pantry, a new entry way and study and updated bedrooms. There were absolutely no surprises during planning or during construction and everything regarding the process is provided in writing. It was a 5 month build and they finished on time and on budget. Its very difficult to find a team that truly cares and that you can trust with your home, and I highly recommend for you to explore what TRS Build can do for your home and family. Thank you TRS Build! read more

I cannot say enough good things about this company. We were left in a horrible predicament with another contractor and had been living in a half demolished home. Shaniko at The Right Stage came to our rescue! He was completing another major renovation next door at the time. He saw the predicament we were in and started our project ASAP. The project was completed with high quality and attention to detail. But most important, the company stuck to their original quote and were always on time. They worked around the clock to finish this project for us. We could not be more pleased with the final project. Shaniko is truly an excellent project manager and it was so refreshing to not have to worry about the project - I knew we were in good hands. It is refreshing to know you can still get professional and quality work completed. Thank you for the beautiful work - we are enjoying it everyday! I highly recommend The Right Stage! read more

Shaniko's contractors did a great job with our remodel. The final product is beautiful and we get lots of compliments on our new kitchen & bath. Pros: They worked quickly and are great with follow-up included in the 6-mo warranty. I appreciate that Anne-Marie took careful notes on feedback we shared about our experience overall and seemed genuine in their interest in how to improve. Most contractors are gone once they finish the work and you never see them again. I suspect that you'll have more of a 5-star experience. Cons: Communication! We had very little knowledge of what was happening when. The crews were clearly working a few different jobs so somedays a lot happened and others very little happened. The crews themselves didn't have the same level of respect for our place that Shaniko shared. At the end of the work it was all fixed & cleaned up but to live day-to-day with the mess they made each day in our one working bathroom for example was frustrating. read more

We chose TRS because Shaniko quickly understood what we wanted, and added his vision to it. The result was a stunning update to our kitchen! TRS removed an old column and totally opened up the space. And the quartz countertops, new floor, and backsplash are gorgeous! Many thanks to the entire TRS team for a fabulous job! read more
