General Contractor in Dripping Springs, TX

Permits and jurisdiction in Dripping Springs

Whether you permit through the City of Dripping Springs or through Hays County depends on the address, because a great deal of what people call Dripping Springs sits outside the city limits. The two paths have different timelines. We establish which one applies before pricing the schedule, since getting that backwards costs weeks.

Building stock in Dripping Springs

Lot sizes here are measured in acres rather than feet. A lot of the housing is newer than central Austin, and plenty of it sits on septic and sometimes on a well. That puts Hays County environmental health review on the critical path of anything that adds bedrooms or fixtures, which is the piece most people do not plan for.

Hill Country sites also build differently. Shallow rock changes what a foundation costs and how long trenching takes, and driveway and site access often have to be solved before the first delivery truck can reach the pad.

We build custom homes, guest houses and detached ADUs out here, and we renovate the 1990s and 2000s houses that are now due for their first serious kitchen and bath work.
