HOA Reconstruction Contractors Built for Texas Communities

An HOA reconstruction contractor specializes in the repair and restoration of building systems — specifically the building envelope — for homeowner association communities. Unlike a general contractor who builds new structures, an HOA reconstruction contractor like Shepperd focuses on correcting construction defects, replacing failed building systems, and executing post-litigation rebuilds. We also work alongside forensic engineers and construction defect attorneys to provide investigative testing support and cost-of-repair documentation.

During active litigation, Shepperd works alongside the forensic engineer and construction defect attorney to assist with the technical side of the claim. This includes performing invasive testing — cutting access openings, conducting water infiltration tests, and collecting samples — so the forensic engineer can gather the data needed for their report. We also produce defensible cost-of-repair estimates that document the full scope and cost of correcting the defect. Our team is deposition-ready and experienced working within the legal process.

Yes. The majority of HOA reconstruction projects are performed on occupied communities. Shepperd’s project teams are experienced in occupied-building reconstruction — coordinating work schedules with the property manager, communicating with residents about upcoming activity, and maintaining clean, safe jobsites throughout the project. We understand that every homeowner in the community is watching this project closely.

Shepperd Construction primarily serves the four major Texas metro areas: Austin, Dallas, San Antonio, and Fort Worth. We maintain operational teams in each market and are available for projects throughout the surrounding regions. We do not currently have a primary presence in Houston but will evaluate projects there on a case-by-case basis.

The most common entry point is through your construction defect attorney or forensic engineer — they’ll engage Shepperd to assist with the investigative testing phase. However, if your HOA has already identified building envelope issues and is still determining next steps, you can contact Shepperd directly. We’ll assess the situation, discuss your options, and connect you with the right professionals if litigation may be appropriate.

A cost-of-repair estimate is a detailed, line-item document that quantifies the full cost of correcting a construction defect. In construction defect litigation, the plaintiff (your HOA community) must demonstrate to the court the dollar value of the damages caused by the defective construction. Shepperd produces court-ready cost-of-repair estimates documented to ASTM standards, defensible under deposition, and aligned with the forensic engineer’s technical findings.

Yes. Shepperd Construction is a fully licensed and insured Texas general contractor with over 12 years of operating history in the state. We maintain all required licensing, carry comprehensive general liability insurance, and operate in full compliance with Texas construction law. Our team includes professionals with backgrounds in architecture, construction management, and building envelope systems.

National firms may have larger marketing budgets, but they don’t have what Shepperd has: 12 years of Texas-specific construction defect reconstruction experience, deep relationships with the forensic engineers and attorneys who drive this work, and a team that is accountable to your community — not to a board in Australia. Shepperd is a Texas company, operating in Texas markets, with a zero-failure track record and the credibility to prove it.
