Testimonials

We are proud to have many repeat clients in Central Austin. 


We first hired Escarpment on the recommendation of our architect to add a bedroom, bath, second living area, and utility to room to our old, small house. They minimized the pain of the process and we were very happy with the result. With Escarpment budgets were real, costs concerns were respected, and creative and practical ideas suggested. About a year later, we decided to remodel the old part of the house. There was no question of who to turn to. The remodel turned out great and looks as good as the new part of the house. Our second experience with Escarpment was consistent with the first. We are proud of our home and happy to recommend Escarpment.

I have had the pleasure of working with Escarpment Construction on a number of residential projects.  Normally when Warren Spain is invited to build a project it is because there is a complexity associated with the construction effort required. Warren exhibits the experience and ability to take on those challenging projects.  He is a good team member and works as a willing collaborator in the design process. Two thumbs up!

Working with Warren on our large-scale remodel was fantastic. He kept us informed about the status of the project as it unfolded. He worked well with the architect to ensure the plans were accurately implemented. He also had concrete suggestions about design choices and changes that made our project better. He was always available when we had questions, and always talked to both me and my wife directly. In the end, we are thrilled with the house Warren built us and would highly recommend him!

I’ve worked with Warren on many projects for more than a decade, and can’t say enough about how easy and fun he is to work with. Remodeling can be incredibly stressful for homeowners, but Warren’s clients benefit immensely from his calm and patient approach to the construction process. He’s a truly outstanding builder and collaborator.

I can heartily recommend Escarpment Construction, with whom I have completed three house projects. Warren Spain is an honest guy who knows what he’s doing – the result of many years of experience. His go-to list of artisan carpenters, tile experts, plumbers, electricians and landscapers are trustworthy and conscientious. They take pride in their work and do their best.

I highly recommend Escarpment Construction and Warren Spain. My parents used Escarpment Construction to build a house in the character-sensitive Rosedale neighborhood, and they recommended Warren to me. I was definitely happy when my full renovation, which included the addition of a second story. Since completion, I have become more and more impressed with Warren’s professionalism.

Over the next 5 years I owned that house, little things came up – like a design flaw by Kohler on a luxury shower, and a faulty thermostat on the air condition system. Each and every time I called Warren, I always got a same-day response from him. He had it fixed within days, for no additional charge. I have since built another home outside of Austin, and I now understand what an absolute nightmare a renovation/new construction can be. If I had the choice, in the future, I would never use another contractor other than Warren.
