The Liberty Hill Project Takeover: Rebuilding Trust One Room at a Time
When the homeowners of this Liberty Hill property first reached out to Atria Design + Build, they were emotionally and financially exhausted. What began as an exciting dream home renovation had turned into a stressful journey, one that had already passed through the hands of two previous builders who were unable to complete the work.
By the time our team stepped in, the home was partially finished, structurally compromised in some areas, and in need of expert correction before new work could even begin. It wasn’t just about building, it was about rebuilding safely, correctly, and beautifully.
The Challenge: Repairing What Was Left Behind
Taking over a project mid-construction is never simple. There are often unknown variables: incomplete framing, mismatched materials, unsafe wiring, and work that doesn’t meet code or industry standards.
In this case, we discovered several structural and design inconsistencies that had to be addressed before moving forward. Our priority was to ensure that everything, from foundation to finish, met both Atria’s high standards and the homeowners’ original vision.
While it meant investing more than expected to correct previous work, it also meant that this family could finally enjoy the peace of mind they deserved: a home that’s not only beautiful but built the right way.
The Process: From Frustration to Fresh Start
We began with a detailed inspection and evaluation of every room, documenting what needed to be repaired, replaced, or completely redesigned. Our transparent approach helped the homeowners understand where previous work had gone wrong and how we would make it right.
Each phase, from demolition to design, was handled with clear communication, accountability, and collaboration. That partnership is what turned a difficult start into a rewarding finish.
The Kitchen: The Heart of the Transformation
The kitchen was the centerpiece of the remodel: a complete reimagining of layout, function, and aesthetic.
Custom cabinetry built for storage and symmetry.
Quartz countertops offering both durability and timeless appeal.
Engineered hardwood flooring flowing seamlessly through the main living areas.
Updated lighting and fixtures to brighten and modernize the space.
What had once been a half-finished construction zone became a space filled with warmth, light, and connection, perfectly blending style and functionality.
The Bathrooms: Spa-Inspired Serenity
Each bathroom received its own personality while maintaining design cohesion. Wall-to-ceiling tile, custom vanities, and modern fixtures created a luxurious yet practical environment. Every finish was chosen to reflect comfort and long-term durability, proof that great design doesn’t have to compromise on function.
The Lesson: The Lowest Bid Isn’t Always the Best Value
This project is a reminder that choosing a builder isn’t just about cost, it’s about trust, craftsmanship, and accountability. The homeowners initially selected lower bids hoping to save money, but ultimately spent more correcting errors and ensuring the home met safety and quality standards.
At Atria Design + Build, we believe in transparency from day one. Our estimates reflect the true scope of the work, no shortcuts, no surprises. Because doing it right the first time is always the most cost-effective path in the long run.
The Result: A Finished Home and a Fresh Start
Today, this Liberty Hill home stands as a reflection of perseverance and partnership. What began as a project filled with challenges ended as a story of renewal, for both the home and its owners.
At Atria Design + Build, we’re honored to have played a role in restoring confidence and creating a space this family can finally call home.
