“I cannot say enough positive about the efforts made by David to do the most excellent repair job on my roof after it was severely damaged by wind and storms There were leaks that resulted from the damage, and shingles blown onto my yard. After David’s work and repair, it truly looks like a new roof. I also commend David for his genuine dedication and business ethics as we worked together to get the best results at the most reasonable price. There is no one I can recommend more confidently to you than David and his company, Highland Remodeling. I will never use anyone else.”

Historic homes

Respecting the house that’s already there.

Waxahachie is the seat of Ellis County, known for its 1890s courthouse and the Victorian homes that earned it the name Gingerbread City. Older houses need a careful hand: modern kitchens and bathrooms planned around original trim, floors and windows, not over them.

Older homes can also hide pier-and-beam foundations, knob-and-tube or other older wiring, and cast-iron or galvanized plumbing. We inspect first, then plan, so the new work and the old house hold up together.

Permits

City permits and historic review.

Remodels in Waxahachie are permitted and inspected by the City of Waxahachie. Homes in a historic district may need design review before exterior changes like windows, siding, porches or additions.

We prepare the drawings and material details, pull the permits, schedule the inspections and build any historic review into your schedule.

Materials

Matching what was there.

Historic homes can need wood siding milled to match, trim profiles that aren’t sold off the shelf and paint prep on old wood. Those choices show up as their own lines on your itemized estimate.

Half baths start at $8,000, hall baths at $20,000, primary suite baths at $35,000 and full kitchens at $45,000. If we open a wall and find something that needs attention, we stop, show you photos and give you a written change order before that work begins.

Our promise

The risk sits with us, in writing.

A remodel is a big check to write to someone you just met. These commitments are in every Highland contract, so you're never taking it on faith.

Questions first? Call (469) 213-0606.

  • Your price is your price.

    The price changes in only one way: a written change order that you see, approve, and sign before that work begins.

  • We stand behind the work.

    Every remodel carries a 1-year workmanship warranty. If something we built doesn't hold up, we come back and make it right.

  • You see every dollar.

    Published starting prices, an itemized estimate, and a client portal that shows each invoice and payment as it happens.

  • The first visit costs you nothing.

    Your 1–2 hour consultation and itemized estimate are free, with no obligation to sign.

Questions

Remodeling in Waxahachie: FAQ.

Do I need historic review to remodel in Waxahachie?

For exterior changes in a historic district, often yes. Interior kitchens and baths usually only need a regular City of Waxahachie permit. We check your address and prepare what’s required.

Do you remodel historic homes in Waxahachie?

Yes. We plan new kitchens and bathrooms around original features, and we prepare what a historic review asks for before exterior work starts.

What should I check before remodeling an older home?

The foundation, plumbing, wiring and framing. We look at all four during your free consultation, so the plan and price reflect the house you actually have.

Can you match the original trim and siding?

Usually, yes. When a profile isn’t sold off the shelf, we have it milled to match, and the estimate shows that cost on its own line.
