AfterConstruction Services in Coppell, TX
Most construction calls we get in Coppell start the same way: a house built between 1985 and 2005 has hit the age where original roofs, windows, and plumbing start failing at once, and the homeowner isn’t sure which problem to tackle first. We’re a local, owner-operated construction company that works in Coppell every week, so we know these houses. We know their post-tension slabs, their brick veneer, and the Blackland Prairie clay under them. If you need an honest assessment of what your house needs and what it doesn’t, call Tom Barrett at (877) 610-1318. A live person answers, day or night.

Why Coppell Homeowners Choose Barrett & Sons Construction
Tom Barrett started this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews. When you hire us, the name on the truck is the name of the people doing the work. That matters in a city like Coppell, where word travels fast and reputations stick. We’ve worked on homes in Northlake Woodlands and Cottonwood Corners, and chances are someone on your street has seen our crew on a job. Tom publishes his name, his address, and his license number. You can look all of it up before you sign anything, and we’d encourage you to. Every job we do includes written change orders before any scope change, permits pulled on every eligible job, and a written 90-Day Done Right Promise. If it’s not right, one call brings Tom back.
We answer our own phone. We don’t route you to an out-of-state call center, and we don’t leave you in a voicemail queue. When you call, you talk to someone who can actually make a decision about your job. That’s how an owner-operated company works, and it’s how we’ve run things since day one.
Construction Services We Offer in Coppell
Kitchen Remodeling
Coppell kitchens from the late 1980s and 1990s have a particular look: boxy oak cabinets, fluorescent soffits, and layouts that wall the cook off from everyone else. If you’re considering Kitchen Remodeling - Coppell, we can help. We knock those walls out, rework the footprint around how your family actually lives, and install cabinets and counters from brands you can look up, like KraftMaid and Cambria.

Bathroom Remodeling
Original 1990s bathrooms in Coppell often have garden tubs nobody uses, tiny showers, and single vanities in homes that need two. Our Bathroom Remodeling - Coppell team knows how to fix these issues. We gut them, fix the plumbing properly, and rebuild with waterproofing done right. Pulling permits on a Coppell bath remodel isn’t optional for us, it’s the only way we work.

Roofing
Hail season in North Texas is hard on Coppell roofs, and most homes in this city are now on their second or even third roof. We install GAF and CertainTeed systems, pull permits, and don’t leave the job until the inspection is signed off.

Windows & Doors
Those original aluminum windows in 1990s Coppell homes lose energy and look tired. We replace them with Andersen or Marvin units, foam-seal every rough opening, and handle the trim so the interior looks finished, not patched.
Fence Installation
Coppell yards back up to alleys, greenbelts, and neighbors close enough to borrow sugar from. We set posts below the clay-movement line and use materials that hold up to North Texas sun, so your fence doesn’t lean after two seasons.
Driveway & Pavers
Post-tension slabs mean driveway work in Coppell needs a crew that understands soil movement and drainage grading. We install pavers from Belgard and Techo-Bloc with a base that doesn’t shift with the Blackland Prairie clay.
Home Additions & ADU
Adding square footage in Coppell is different from building in a growth corridor. Your house is on a post-tension slab, your neighborhood is fully built out, and the city wants to see engineered drawings before a shovel moves. We handle the engineering, the permits, and the construction, and every change order lands in writing before work proceeds.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Coppell
We work all over Coppell, from established neighborhoods off Denton Tap Road to newer pockets in the 75099 zip. Typical response time for a Coppell estimate is same week, often sooner if you call early in the day.

Why Coppell’s Climate & Housing Affect Construction
Coppell sits on Blackland Prairie clay, and that clay never sits still. Wet winters push it up, dry summers pull it back, and every addition or structural alteration we do here has to account for that movement. That means compacted fill under any new foundation, drainage graded away from the house, and moisture barriers specified before the concrete pour. It’s not an upsell. It’s the difference between an addition that stays square and one that starts cracking in three years.
The other thing that sets Coppell apart is the slab itself. Nearly every home built here between 1985 and 2005 sits on a post-tension concrete slab, which means there are high-tension steel cables running through the concrete. Cut into that slab for a plumbing reroute or a room addition without scanning first, and you risk severing a cable. That’s a catastrophic failure, and it’s expensive. We ground-penetrating radar scan before any concrete cutting on a Coppell job. Crews that come up from newer-construction markets skip this step all the time. We never do.
Then there’s the airport. Parts of Coppell fall within FAA Part 77 airspace notification zones because of the direct border with DFW International Airport. That can trigger height-restriction reviews on additions that change your roofline. Most DFW suburban contractors never deal with that paperwork. We do, and we don’t let it surprise you mid-project.

What Coppell Customers Say
"Came back a year later to sort a door that had dropped as the frame settled. No charge and no argument about whether it was covered."
- Thaddeus Oyelowo"Addition over the garage matched the original roofline and brickwork so closely that visitors do not realise it was added. He tracked down the closest brick he could find rather than settling."
- Gideon Stroud"The bathroom was finished on the day he said at the start, which nobody had led me to believe was possible."
- Loretta Vanterpool
