AfterConstruction Services in Spring, TX
Construction in Spring, TX almost always starts with a specific problem: a slab that’s moved, a kitchen that quit working for your family, or a roof that showed its age after the last big storm. You need a contractor who knows that Spring sits in two counties at once, that your framing lumber will dry differently in July than it does in January, and that the permit you need depends on which side of the county line your house sits. Barrett & Sons Construction serves Spring from just down the road, with crews who know Spring Creek clay, The Woodlands deed restrictions, and the difference between a Harris County inspection and a Montgomery County one. Call (877) 610-1318 and you’ll get a live person, not a voicemail box. We’ve been doing this work since 1998, and Tom Barrett puts his name on every job.

Why Spring Homeowners Choose Barrett & Sons Construction
Most Spring homeowners who call us have already been through the wringer with a contractor who quoted one price on the phone and handed them a different bill at the door. That’s not how we work, and it never has been. Tom Barrett founded this company in 1998, and his sons run the crews. When you hire Barrett & Sons, the person who shakes your hand is the person whose name is on the truck, and the crew members showing up at your door are background-checked, uniformed, and answer to Tom directly.
In neighborhoods like Gleannloch Farms, Imperial Oaks, and Legends Ranch, we’ve built a reputation the old-fashioned way: every scope in writing, every allowance in writing, every change order in writing before a single nail moves. That’s not a slogan. It’s the rule. And every job ends the same way: a 90-Day Done Right Promise printed on the contract. If something’s not right, Tom comes back and makes it right. One call.

Roofing in Spring
Spring roofs take a beating – hail, wind, and a summer sun that bakes shingles well past their rated temperature. Our Spring Roofing crew installs GAF and CertainTeed systems with the ventilation and flashing details that keep a Spring attic from turning into an oven.

Windows & Doors in Spring
High heat and high humidity mean window and door installs in Spring fail fast if the flashing isn’t right. We install Windows & Doors in Spring using Andersen and Marvin products with the sealing and drainage details this climate demands, and we stand behind the work in writing.
Fence Installation in Spring
Cedar and treated pine both work in Spring, but post-setting depth and concrete mix matter more here than most markets, thanks to the expansive clay. We set posts below the shrink-swell zone so your fence stays straight through wet winters and dry summers.
Driveway & Pavers in Spring
Clay heave wrecks driveways in Spring faster than almost anywhere else in Texas. We plan paver and concrete work around drainage first, then aesthetics, using brands like Belgard, Techo-Bloc, and Cambridge Pavers – paver systems designed to move without cracking.
Home Additions & ADU in Spring
Adding square footage in Spring means more than framing walls. It means grading for drainage, sizing beams for clay-based movement, and navigating the deed restrictions and association reviews that govern so much of this area. We handle all of it, permits included.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Spring
Our crews work across Spring every week, and we know the quirks of each pocket of town. Typical response time for an estimate in Spring is 24 to 48 hours, depending on the season.

Why Spring’s Climate & Housing Affect Construction
Spring sits on Houston’s expansive Beaumont clay, the kind of soil that shrinks dramatically in drought and swells with every soaking rain. The bulk of Spring’s housing stock was built in the 1980s and 1990s on slab foundations directly over that clay, which means a steady baseline of foundation repair, slab leveling, and drainage correction work throughout the 77380, 77381, 77382, and 77383 ZIP codes. Cracked brick veneer, doors that stick, drywall cracks at the corners of windows – we see these every week, and they trace back to the same root cause: water moving through high-plasticity soil.
Add in the post-Harvey flood zone changes along the Spring Creek corridor, and construction in Spring now carries elevation and freeboard requirements that a contractor working inland Texas may never have encountered. A competent Spring contractor plans for drainage first, framing second, and finish work last – because a gorgeous addition that doesn’t shed water properly becomes a problem with a mortgage attached. This is exactly why every addition, ADU, and major remodel we take on starts with a drainage plan before the first footing is poured.
Pricing for Construction in Spring
Honest numbers up front: a Spring kitchen remodel typically runs $32,000 to $58,000 depending on footprint, cabinet grade, and whether walls move. Bathrooms land between $16,000 and $30,000. A full roof replacement on a typical 1990s Spring ranch runs $9,500 to $15,000. Driveway and paver work starts around $7,500 and climbs with square footage and material choice. Every estimate we give is line-item, and every allowance is a number on paper before work begins. No surprise invoices. That’s the whole point.

FAQs About Construction in Spring
A full kitchen remodel in Spring typically runs $32,000 to $58,000, with the spread driven by cabinet grade, countertop material, and whether you’re moving plumbing or walls. KraftMaid and Cambria specifications, custom layouts, and load-bearing work push toward the higher end. Call (877) 610-1318 for an exact quote – estimates are free.
Yes, in almost every case. Spring sits in both Harris and Montgomery Counties, so the specific permit type and inspection process depends on your ZIP code, and The Woodlands-adjacent neighborhoods add association review on top of the county process. We pull permits and get inspections signed on every eligible job, so you never have to guess.
A full bathroom remodel in Spring typically takes 3 to 5 weeks from demo to final inspection. Custom tile work, moving plumbing, or unforeseen subfloor or framing repairs around clay-affected slabs can extend the schedule, but every change is documented in a written change order before we proceed. Call (877) 610-1318 to get a project-specific timeline for your bathroom.
The short answer is expansive clay. Beaumont clay swells when it rains and shrinks when it dries, and any structure that sits directly on it – slab, driveway, patio, fence post – moves with the soil. A properly planned paver or concrete driveway in Spring has to be built on a compacted base that accounts for that movement. That’s why drainage planning comes first on every hardscape job we quote.
If your project sits in The Woodlands ZIP codes or other Montgomery County portions of Spring, you’re likely dealing with Woodlands Community Association review on top of county permits. That review covers impervious cover limits, tree-removal mitigation, and exterior material palettes, and it can add three to six weeks to a schedule that an identical Harris County job across the line never faces. We know the process, the reviewers, and the paperwork on both sides of the county line.

What Spring Customers Say
"His sons run the crews and they were in our house for four months. Not once did I feel I had to be home to keep an eye on things."
- Camila Fuentes"Beautiful work and honest pricing throughout. The project ran about three weeks past the estimate waiting on the cabinets, which was the supplier rather than him, though the delay was still real."
- Genevieve Ashcombe"Full kitchen down to the studs. He found the previous owner had done the wiring himself and it was genuinely dangerous, showed me, and put it right properly rather than boxing it back in."
- Augustus Nwachukwu
