Whole home remodels done right, by a family that treats your house like our own. As an experienced home renovation contractor in Austin, we manage every stage of your remodeling project from planning through construction.
A full house remodel is a big undertaking, and it goes a lot smoother when one team owns the whole thing. That’s how we work at Cornerstone. As a licensed general contractor, we coordinate every phase of the project so you don’t have to manage multiple subcontractors. Instead of you playing referee between a dozen different trades, we handle the planning, the schedule, and every step of the build under one roof.
Cornerstone has become a trusted home renovation contractor serving homeowners across Austin and Central Texas. Whether you call it a whole home remodel, a full home renovation, or a top-to-bottom redo, the goal is the same: to create a home that better fits the way you live.
As a family-owned company, we’ve been helping homeowners across Austin since 2021. Our approach has always stayed the same, honest pricing, quality workmanship, and clear communication from the first walkthrough to the final touch.
Every residential remodeling project is different, so no two homes need the exact same renovation plan. However, a full home renovation often combines several remodeling services into one well planned project.
Our interior renovation services focus on the rooms you use every day, creating beautiful, functional spaces designed around your lifestyle. This is where most of the work happens, and where a remodel makes the biggest difference.
Whether you're planning a custom home renovation or simply improving your home's flow, we can remove walls, expand living spaces, and reconfigure layouts. That can mean opening up a closed-off floor plan, moving or removing walls, adding a room, or expanding square footage to give your family more space.
Older Austin homes often need more than a facelift. We handle plumbing, electrical, and HVAC updates, and bring things up to current code where the work calls for it, so what's behind the walls is as solid as what's in front of them.
A whole-home project doesn't stop at the front door. We take on roofing, windows, and siding so your home holds up to Texas weather and looks the part from the street.
Full house remodels in Austin usually need permits, and unpermitted work can cause real headaches down the road when it's time to sell or refinance. We handle the permitting and inspection coordination so it's done by the book.
Austin home values have climbed for years, and a lot of homeowners are deciding they’d rather renovate the house they love than start over somewhere new. A full home renovation lets you do exactly that.
Done well, a whole house renovation gives you back function you didn’t have, brings a dated home into the present, and often improves energy efficiency in the process. It’s also one of the better ways to add long-term value to your property. Instead of settling for a layout that never quite worked, you get a home built around the way you actually live.
We’re Joe and Julie Davila, and Cornerstone is our family business. Joe was born and raised right here in Austin and runs the construction side, hands-on from the first walkthrough to the final nail. Julie brings a background in interior design and a real eye for turning a rough idea into a space you never want to leave.
When you hire us, you’re not getting passed off to a stranger. You’re working directly with the family whose name is on the door. That means:
We named the company Cornerstone for a reason. It’s built on the same values Joe’s grandfather Eliseo lived by: faith, family, and doing honest work you can stand behind.
We keep the process simple on purpose. No runaround, no mystery.
Tell us what you're thinking. It's free and takes a couple minutes.
We walk your home, define the work, and put together a clear plan so you know exactly what's involved.
We help shape the details and show you what the finished space will look like.
Your project gets scheduled and completed, with regular updates the whole way through.
Every complete home renovation is different, so pricing depends on the size of your home, structural work, material selections, and project scope. What your project costs comes down to a handful of real factors:
Timelines work the same way. A partial remodel moves faster; a full renovation with layout changes and system upgrades takes longer, and permit approval with the city factors in too. Rather than throw out a number that means nothing, we walk your home, understand what you’re after, and give you a clear breakdown of both cost and timeline before any work begins. No surprises, no hidden fees.
One of the first questions we hear is, “Can we stay in the house while you work?” For a lot of projects, the answer is yes.
Depending on the scope, we can phase the work so your family keeps at least one kitchen and one bathroom usable while the rest gets done. We’re careful about dust control, keeping the jobsite safe, and working around your daily life as much as we can. For bigger gut renovations, staying elsewhere is sometimes the smarter call, and we’ll tell you honestly which situation you’re in before we start, so you can plan ahead.

Get answers to common questions about remodeling costs, timelines, estimates, our process, and the services we provide for homeowners throughout Austin and Central Texas.
It depends on the size of your home, the scope of the work, any structural changes, and the finishes you choose. A cosmetic refresh and a full gut renovation are worlds apart on price. Rather than guess, we walk your home and give you a clear, detailed breakdown before any work starts, with no hidden fees.
Timelines vary with the scope. A partial remodel wraps up faster, while a full renovation with layout changes and system upgrades takes longer, and city permitting plays a role too. We give you a realistic schedule upfront and keep you posted the whole way through.
Not much, honestly, people use the terms interchangeably. Both mean updating most or all of your home rather than a single room. Whatever you call it, we handle the whole project under one team.
It can cover interior work like kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, and paint; structural changes like moving walls or adding square footage; systems updates like plumbing and electrical; and exterior work like roofing and windows. We tailor the scope to your home and your goals.
Often, yes. For many projects we can phase the work so you keep a working kitchen and bathroom while the rest gets done. For larger gut renovations, staying elsewhere is sometimes easier, and we’ll tell you honestly which applies to your project.
It depends on the condition of your home and what you’re trying to achieve. In a lot of cases, a full home renovation gives you the home you want for less than a rebuild. We’re happy to walk your space and give you an honest take.
