Why Texas Property Owners Choose Shepperd Construction

Unlike out-of-state contractors who struggle with Texas building codes and climate challenges, we’ve spent over a decade mastering the unique demands of Texas construction.

We understand expansive clay soils in North Texas, limestone foundations in the Hill Country, coastal humidity in South Texas, and the severe weather patterns that affect buildings statewide. Our team works seamlessly with Texas forensic engineers, construction defect attorneys, and property management firms who need reliable partners, not learning curves. We’re not just licensed in Texas; we’re built for Texas.

Our Primary Service Areas Across Texas

We maintain strategic offices and field teams in Texas’s four largest metropolitan areas, ensuring rapid response times and deep local expertise. Each region presents unique construction challenges, and our teams bring specialized knowledge of local building practices, code requirements, and climate-specific solutions.

Frequently Asked Questions

We serve all of Texas with primary offices in Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, and Fort Worth. Our reconstruction services extend throughout the state including Houston, Corpus Christi, El Paso, Lubbock, Tyler, Waco, College Station, and rural communities. We regularly complete projects across all 254 Texas counties. While our main presence covers the Triangle (Dallas-Austin-San Antonio-Houston corridor), we travel statewide for qualified reconstruction projects. Our regional teams understand local building practices, code variations, and climate challenges whether you’re in West Texas, the Panhandle, East Texas, or the Gulf Coast.

For properties in our primary service areas (Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, Fort Worth), we typically schedule initial assessments within 24-48 hours of your request. For projects in other Texas regions, we coordinate site visits based on distance and project urgency—typically within 3-5 business days. Emergency situations involving active water intrusion or structural concerns receive priority scheduling. Our project managers conduct thorough evaluations, document existing conditions, and provide preliminary scope discussions during the initial visit. For forensic engineers and attorneys needing rapid litigation support, we can often mobilize same-day or next-day depending on location and availability.

Absolutely. We’ve built strong relationships with forensic engineering firms and construction defect attorneys across Texas. We provide litigation support at every phase—from pre-litigation testing and evidence documentation to post-settlement reconstruction. Our services include invasive and destructive testing coordination, cost of repair estimates, expert testimony, and detailed project documentation that supports case resolution. We understand ASTM testing protocols, Texas construction litigation procedures, and the technical requirements attorneys and engineers need. Many Texas engineering firms regularly include us in their investigation teams because we preserve evidence properly while gathering the data they need for expert reports.

We specialize in multifamily condominiums, HOA communities, commercial buildings, and institutional facilities experiencing building envelope failures. Our expertise includes construction defect remediation following litigation, aging infrastructure restoration for properties built in the 1970s-2010s, insurance restoration after fire or storm damage, and CAPEX projects for property management firms and REITs. We handle everything from 20-unit condominium complexes to 500 unit apartment communities, office buildings, retail centers, medical facilities, and educational institutions. While we focus on commercial and multifamily work, we evaluate all qualified reconstruction projects regardless of property type or size.

Reconstruction costs vary significantly based on deficiency scope, building size, accessibility, and location. Typical multifamily envelope reconstruction ranges from $15-45 per square foot of exterior wall area, though complex projects with structural repairs or difficult access may exceed this range. We provide transparent, detailed estimates broken down by building system—stucco, windows, waterproofing, balconies, roofing—so you understand exactly what drives costs. For CAPEX planning, we offer preliminary budgets based on visual assessments before engineering investigations are complete. Our estimating reflects current Texas labor and material costs, and we account for regional variations between major metros and rural areas. All estimates include permits, engineering coordination, and project management—no hidden fees or surprise charges.

Yes. We’ve perfected reconstruction techniques that minimize disruption to residents and tenants. Our approach includes phased construction schedules that complete work in sections, maintaining full habitability throughout the project. We coordinate closely with property managers, provide advance notice to residents, and schedule noisy activities during approved hours. For multifamily properties, we install temporary weatherproofing before removing existing assemblies—residents never experience weather exposure during reconstruction. Our field teams maintain clean, safe job sites with daily cleanup protocols, clearly marked pedestrian routes, and dust control measures. We’ve reconstructed hundreds of occupied buildings across Texas without requiring tenant relocation, saving property owners the significant cost and complexity of temporary housing arrangements.

We provide comprehensive warranties covering both our workmanship and the materials we install. Standard reconstruction projects include a 2-year workmanship warranty covering our installation and field execution. Manufacturer warranties on materials range from 10-30 years depending on the system—roofing products, window systems, and siding materials each carry specific coverage from their manufacturers. For post-litigation projects where owners expect enhanced protection, we can structure extended warranty programs with third-party backing. All warranties transfer automatically to subsequent property owners, protecting long-term building value. We also offer optional maintenance programs where our team conducts annual inspections, identifies minor issues before they escalate, and keeps your building envelope performing as designed throughout its service life.

Yes. We can provide references from forensic engineers, construction defect attorneys, property managers, and building owners in your specific region of Texas. Our portfolio includes successfully completed projects across the state—from high-rise reconstruction in major metros to multifamily communities in suburban and rural areas. We’re happy to connect you with past clients who have experienced similar project types, scopes, and challenges. For attorneys and engineers, we can provide references from other legal and engineering professionals we’ve supported in litigation cases. Contact us with your location and project type, and we’ll provide relevant references that demonstrate our capabilities and track record in your area of Texas.
