Dylan Michalek

It can be overwhelming. Having one firm as the key contact was a huge help. But it was not just that. They buildt a relationship before they built my house. They listened and I learned to trust. They observed my old home, my tastes, my desires and they brought their financial, design and build expertise to bear from the biggest choices to the smallest details. Very quickly I felt like we were partners in a journey to create something wonderful.

David

We had originally talked to some architects, thinking that we would get a design, then hire a contractor. I am SO GLAD we didn't do that!

Carlos

I am so glad I chose Moontower to design and build an ADU on our lot in East Austin. Whether dealing with the City’s less-than-efficient permitting or my ever-evolving vision, everyone on their team was always infinitely patient, exceedingly knowledgeable, friendly, and communicative. With complex zoning requirements, several large pecan trees in the middle of the site, and a tight budget, they faced a number of constraints. Their beautiful design made incredibly creative use of space and materials—resulting in a space that feels much more expansive and expensive than it actually is. Six months into living in it, I appreciate the quality of their workmanship every day.

Amy

After considering a remodel for 10+ years, we are very pleased that we decided to renovate our home and select Moontower Design Build. From the first encounter throughout the project, we give the entire experience five out of five stars!
Not only are we thrilled with the end result, but the process was, to our surprise, enjoyable. Our project transformed our small bungalow into a wonderful space for our family of four – now a very functional and pleasant home to live and entertain. We now love living in our home with the well-thought-out design, quality construction, and inspiring.

We love working with Moontower! We had never undertaken a major renovation and didn’t know what to expect or where to begin. The folks at Moontower spent a lot of time getting to know us, figuring out our style and making sure we were comfortable with the process. Besides, they are great people and a lot of fun to work with! The results are phenomenal. Can’t wait to work with them again!

Lois

My experience with Moontower building our guest house exceeded my expectations. From the start, the site cleanliness (very important to me as we had a newborn and a curious toddler at home) and professionalism in the communication were all great. The construction team and Project manager were very easy to work with, flexible, and patient, as I often wanted to see all possible options before deciding. They gracefully answered my questions and put my mind at ease when we “took risks” with the selections or design. I am highly encouraged by our first experience with Moontower and look forward to when we can partner on future projects.

Katie

We've lived in the home for a year now and are still in love with it and its details. I'd highly recommend Moontower and would work with them again.

Walter

Overall, we have lots to praise and nothing to complain about. They are a great company, and everyone we've talked to at Moontower (which I think is most everyone) is a great person. Chatting with them felt like catching up with friends, not talking to a contractor or employee. My husband and I strongly recommend them to our friends (several of them are talking with them, actually), and we feel fortunate we found them way back when we started thinking about turning our okay home into a dream home.

Jill

From the very first interview, we had a great feeling about Moontower. It was easy to trust them to take care of things; their communications were very clear, the budgeting was transparent, and they never overwhelmed us

Carey & Kristina

We had followed the Moontower team for years. They consulted with us to avoid a money pit, phew! When we found our forever neighborhood they completely transformed the structure we got into our happy place!


Brandon & David

We are so deeply grateful to have connected with Moontower. They are stellar individuals who are dedicated to their craft. These are good people doing good work.
