The Ranking

Our top 7 remodeling contractors in San Antonio

Remodeling in San Antonio starts with the age of the house. Much of the central and west side was built from the 1930s through the 1970s, so walls often hide old wiring, galvanized plumbing and slab foundations that move with the clay soil. On the north side, around Stone Oak and Shavano Park, newer two-story homes from the 1990s and 2000s drive demand for kitchen updates, primary suite bathrooms and room additions. Many owners renovate because buying a larger house costs more than improving the one they have, and a lot of the work is kitchens and bathrooms. Two checks protect you. First, Texas has no state general contractor licence, so there is no single licence number to look up. Ask each company for proof of insurance and check the City of San Antonio contractor registration and permit records before you sign. Second, electricians, plumbers and HVAC technicians are licensed by the state, so use TDLR (Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation) to confirm anyone doing that work in your house. Ask who pulls the city permit for structural, electrical or plumbing changes and whether the fee is in your quote. The seven companies below range from showroom-based design-build firms to founder-led crews and bath and kitchen specialists. Several do not print a licence number or warranty terms on their sites, so do not skip those questions. Each profile notes what the company publishes and what to ask for.

Methodology

How we chose the best remodeling contractors in San Antonio

We searched Google Maps for home remodeling contractors, home remodeling companies and kitchen and bathroom remodelers in San Antonio, then ran neighborhood and project-type searches covering Stone Oak, Alamo Heights, Southtown, whole-house renovation, additions and the northwest side. To be listed, a company needed a rating of 4.5 or higher from at least 50 Google reviews, an operational status, a working website, a logo, at least four real photos and a staffed street address inside San Antonio. We rejected home addresses, shared executive suites, listings in suburbs such as Schertz, lead-generation and unfinished sites, bath-liner and window franchises, roofing-first companies, multifamily contractors and handyman firms. Companies are listed in the order Google returned them across the searches. Ratings and review counts were read on October 31, 2026. No company paid for a place on this list, and we did not verify licence or registration numbers ourselves, so check them with the city and TDLR.

Hiring

How to choose a remodeling contractor in San Antonio

  1. Verify insurance and credentials

    Ask for a current certificate of insurance and confirm registration or licensing with the authority that issues it, not with the company.

  2. Ask for a written estimate

    Scope, materials, removal, disposal and who pulls the permit should all be named on the page rather than agreed on the doorstep.

  3. Compare multiple quotes

    Two or three bids on the same scope. A number far below the others usually means something has been left out of it.

  4. Understand the warranty

    Separate the manufacturer's warranty on materials from the company's own warranty on the work, and get both in writing.

  5. Ask who performs the work

    Find out whether the crew are employees or subcontractors, and who supervises them on the day.

  6. Check recent local projects

    Ask for addresses or photographs of comparable jobs finished nearby in the last year or two.

  7. Avoid high-pressure sales

    A discount that expires today, or a knock on the door after a storm, is a reason to slow down rather than sign.

  8. Get everything in writing

    Change orders, timeline and payment schedule included, before the first payment changes hands.

FAQ

Remodeling companies in San Antonio FAQs

How do I check a San Antonio remodeling contractor's licence?

Texas has no state general contractor licence, so start with the City of San Antonio contractor registration and permit records and ask for proof of insurance. Electricians, plumbers and HVAC technicians are licensed by the state, so confirm any of them on the TDLR licence search. Get the business name, registration and insurance details in writing before you pay a deposit.

How much does a home remodel cost in San Antonio?

Prices depend on the size of the room, the age of the house and the finishes, so the honest answer is to collect at least three written quotes for the same scope. Ask what is included, how change orders are priced and whether permit fees are in the quote. Some firms on this list charge for design up front, while others give free estimates, so compare the full price rather than the first number.

Do I need a permit to remodel a kitchen or bathroom in San Antonio?

Often yes. Work that changes structure, electrical, plumbing or gas lines generally needs a City of San Antonio permit, while cosmetic updates may not. Ask the contractor who pulls the permit, whether that person is registered with the city, and whether the fee and inspections are in your quote. Your contractor can confirm the rules for your address.
