Fast, Reliable Home Remodeling Across Preston Hollow
Home remodeling in Preston Hollow runs $14,000 – $130,000 depending on scope, and the two things that control your schedule most are tree preservation rules and long-lead custom materials, not labor. We’re Mason Remodeling Co Dallas, part of the Threshold Group family, and we’ve been doing high-end work in Preston Hollow long enough to know that a mature pecan tree can change your foundation plan faster than any design trend. Every project gets a written price before we order a single cabinet or move one wall. Call (432) 302-8761 and we’ll walk the property with you, tree survey in hand, and give you real numbers you can plan around.
Why Mason Remodeling Co Dallas Is Preston Hollow’s Preferred Home Remodeling Company
Preston Hollow homeowners tend to ask the same three questions before they let anyone through the gate: who exactly is coming, what does it cost in writing, and what happens if something’s wrong a year from now. We answer all three before the first tool is unpacked. Our Home Remodeling team sends you the name and photo of every crew member before arrival, each one background-checked and identity-verified under the Threshold Standard, and each one showing a photo ID badge at your door. No surprises at the threshold, no nameless subcontractors wandering your property.
The written price is the other thing that sets us apart here. In Preston Hollow’s custom-home market, verbal estimates are how budgets quietly double. Our price is delivered in writing before work starts, on every project, every time. That’s not a courtesy. It’s the rule. Isaac Pruett runs Mason Remodeling Co Dallas with one simple standard: if it isn’t in writing, it isn’t real. Homeowners in Preston Hollow have told us that alone was reason enough to choose us over three other remodelers they interviewed.
We also answer the phone like adults. A live person picks up, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including weekends and holidays. No call trees, no voicemail loops, no “we’ll get back to you Monday.” When you’re mid-remodel and a question comes up at 9 p.m., you call and a human answers. That’s how Preston Hollow should be served.
Styles & brands we work with
Home Renovation in Preston Hollow
Home renovation in Preston Hollow is rarely a simple cosmetic refresh. Most of the work we take on here involves 1940s – 1960s ranch homes being rebuilt into modern estates, or newer custom homes getting full interior overhauls. A full home renovation in this market typically runs $14,000 – $45,000, but that range widens quickly when structural work, custom millwork, or architectural glass enters the conversation. The schedule is set by long-lead items: stone slabs, custom cabinetry, steel beams, specialty windows. Order them late and your project stalls for months after rough-in is done.
Custom Millwork and Cabinetry
Preston Hollow clients do not want stock boxes. They want inset cabinetry, walnut or white oak, custom paneling that matches baseboards exactly. That work comes from shops running 8 – 14 week lead times. We order it the week the contract is signed, not the week demolition starts. The price for that cabinetry is itemized in your written estimate, line by line, so you know what you’re approving before anything is cut.
Architectural Glass and Specialty Finishes
High-end Preston Hollow remodels lean on glass walls, steel-framed windows, and specialty tile. Those are not items you can grab at a supply house on short notice. We sequence them at the front of the project and hold the line on pricing even when the manufacturer’s lead time stretches. Your written price is fixed before we order; if a material gets backordered, that’s our problem to manage, not a surprise invoice on your desk.
Home Remodeling Companies in Preston Hollow
Home remodeling companies in Preston Hollow are plentiful, but few understand what city permitting actually demands here. The tree mitigation ordinance is the one that catches most people. If your design calls for a foundation addition anywhere near a protected mature pecan or oak, the city can reject the structural plan outright. We build tree preservation into the site plan on day one, because we’ve seen remodels stopped entirely at permitting for ignoring it. Cost for the kind of work we do in Preston Hollow: Bathroom Remodeling in Preston Hollow runs $9,000 – $28,000, walk-in shower installation $4,500 – $12,000, kitchen island installation $3,000 – $10,000.
Design and Permit Coordination
We coordinate directly with your architect or designer, and our team handles the permit drawings with tree setbacks noted and drainage shown. If the city flags something, we revise quickly, not after weeks of silence. Reasonable homeowners planning a Home Remodeling in Preston Hollow project should expect this level of coordination as standard, not as an add-on.
Written Allowances vs. Guessed Numbers
The most common failure we see in Preston Hollow remodels is the allowance trap. A contractor writes “millwork allowance: $20,000” on a proposal and later hands you a change order for another $18,000 because the allowance was a guess. We don’t work that way. Every line item is priced from actual vendor quotes, in writing, before you sign. If the scope doesn’t change, the price doesn’t change, period.
Trusted Brands We Service in Preston Hollow
We stock and install materials from brands that hold up under North Texas conditions. Quikrete and Sakrete products for slab piers and driveways, paver systems built to handle clay soil movement without cracking. We keep a working inventory of the fast-moving supplies our Preston Hollow projects use most, and we can pull from Oldcastle distribution yards in the metro area quickly when a job calls for it. The point isn’t brand names for their own sake. It’s that we don’t make you wait on materials that should have been on a truck yesterday.

AfterCommon Home Remodeling Problems We See in Preston Hollow Homes
- Tree preservation rules ignored during design. A homeowner gets drawings done cheap, then the city rejects the structural plan because a protected pecan sits too close to the proposed foundation. Redesign costs thousands and adds weeks before construction even starts.
- Clay soil movement causing uneven floors and cracked slab edges. North Texas clay expands and contracts dramatically through wet and dry seasons. Foundation work often has to happen before any interior finish work, and the budget should reflect that up front.
- Long-lead materials sequenced too late. Custom cabinetry, steel beams, and architectural glass can take months. Order them after demolition and the job sits idle, which costs money and tests everyone’s patience.
- Ranch-era framing surprises. Homes built in the 1940s – 1960s often hide undersized joists, knob-and-tube wiring remnants, or deteriorated sill plates. We find these early and price the fix as a written line item, not a vague “structural repair” line that grows later.

FAQs About Home Remodeling in Preston Hollow
They can stop your project at permitting if a protected mature pecan or oak falls within the construction footprint. The city requires a tree survey and mitigation plan before approving structural drawings, and a foundation that encroaches on a protected tree’s critical root zone will likely be rejected. We handle this by pulling the tree survey early and adjusting the site plan before drawings are finalized, so it never causes a delay on our projects.
Custom cabinetry, architectural glass, steel beams, and specialty stone typically run 8 – 16 weeks from order to delivery in the Preston Hollow market. That’s why we order them the week your contract is signed, not after demolition starts. Lead times, not labor, set the calendar on luxury work. If a vendor slips, we absorb the schedule impact and keep you informed in plain language.
Yes. Any project that touches electrical, plumbing, framing, or changes the footprint requires a city permit, and Preston Hollow’s enforcement is strict because of the area’s high property values and active teardown-rebuild market. We pull permits for every job, and the permit cost is a line item in our written price. No shortcuts. Unpermitted work on a Preston Hollow home can complicate future appraisals and insurance claims.
Absolutely. We’ve done extensive ranch-to-modern renovations that keep the original slab and exterior walls while opening interiors with steel beams, reworking rooflines where needed, and adding modern envelope systems. On a quiet street off Preston Road, our crew remodeled a 1950s ranch into a modern estate. The existing load-bearing wall had to be replaced with a steel beam, and we coordinated with the architect to shift the new kitchen island to avoid a 100-year-old pecan tree in the rear yard. Preserving that tree kept the project within scope and prevented a costly permit delay, and the original slab and foundation remained in service.
We deliver a written, line-item price before ordering any materials or doing any demolition. Every cabinet line, every fixture allowance, every permit fee, every scope item is priced from a real vendor quote, not a guess. If the scope doesn’t change, the price doesn’t change. That’s the standard, and it applies to every Preston Hollow project we take on. Call (432) 302-8761 and we’ll walk your property, talk through the scope, and put numbers in front of you before you commit to anything.
