Residential Rehab and Remodeling in Martin County, TX

What we run on a Martin County home

The scopes below are the ones we mobilize against for owner-occupied homes in Martin County. Each is delivered with line-itemized pricing, daily photo updates, and a written closeout package — the same paperwork discipline that shows up on our federally funded programs.

Rehabilitation

• Whole-home modernization & rehabilitation
• Kitchen and bath remodeling to code
• Weatherization & air-sealing
• Roofing, siding, and storm/wind-damage repair
• Plumbing, electrical, and life-safety code upgrades
• Accessibility modifications, including safer entries, doorways, and bath adaptations

Energy Efficiency Upgrades

• Insulation upgrades (wall cavity and attic)
• Window and door replacement to ENERGY STAR
• HVAC right-sizing and sealed ductwork
• LED lighting retrofits
• Weather-stripping and air-sealing at envelope penetrations

Storm and wind-damage repair on residential structures is a frequent Martin County need — open terrain around Stanton, Ackerly, and Lenorah exposes roofing, siding, and exterior attachments to sustained wind in ways a non-local contractor can easily price wrong. Our residential rehabilitation detail covers the full CDBG-eligible scope envelope; the items above are the Martin County-targeted subset.

Federal program alignment for West Texas scopes

If your project is funded through a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), GLO, or another HUD-administered source, the contractor you hire is carrying federal compliance — not just a build scope. The anchors below are the ones that show up on every HUD-monitored job we run in West Texas.

• 24 CFR Part 570 — Community Development Block Grant program framework. CDBG-eligible activities under §570.201(b)–(c) cover rehab, reconstruction, public facilities, and direct assistance to program-eligible households.
• Section 504 accessibility — Units modified for accessibility conform to 24 CFR Part 8 where applicable to the program. Tenant-side reasonable-accommodation requests are processed through the program’s established procedure.
• Davis-Bacon prevailing wage — Applies where the underlying contract triggers (construction of 8+ units, rehabilitation of 8+ units under CDBG / CDBG-DR). Posted wage decisions, WH-347 certified payroll, and on-site interview records maintained for every covered project.
• Environmental Review (24 CFR Part 58) — Projects run through the responsible entity’s environmental review (ERR) record prior to commitment of funds. Site-specific constraints (historic properties, floodplain, coastal barrier resources) cleared through the program before construction starts.
• Lead-Based Paint (24 CFR Part 35) — Applies to pre-1978 housing receiving federal rehab assistance. Pre-1960 housing presumed lead-bearing unless testing clears the structure. Occupant protection during work, EPA RRP-certified crews, and clearance testing on completion.

Eligibility is determined by the program administrator, not by the contractor. Our residential rehabilitation services page explains the CDBG-eligible scope envelope, and what West Texas homeowners need to know about CDBG rehab grants outlines the usual program path before a contractor is selected.

Geographic fit for Martin County

Construction in Martin County carries the West Texas conditions that drive most of the change orders we see on outside-region contractors. The five items below are the ones a homeowner should ask any contractor bidding the work.

• Wind zone and code reading — Martin County’s open-terrain corridors around Stanton, Ackerly, and Lenorah demand careful attention to roofing assemblies, exterior attachments, and window anchoring. A contractor who reads the local amendments to the IRC can prevent a redo after the next sustained-wind event.
• Expansive soils — Martin County’s clay soils can affect foundation, slab-repair, and exterior-drainage details. A contractor familiar with South Plains and Permian Basin conditions is less likely to miss movement and water-management details that matter over the life of the home.
• IECC climate zone — insulation, window U-factors, and HVAC sizing are tuned to the local IECC zone, not defaults. Right-sizing equipment to a manual J/S/T load calculation against the actual envelope is the standard, not the upgrade.
• Supplier relationships — Lubbock-area supply houses and West Texas distributors stock what local contractors buy. A Martin County project pulled against established accounts usually lands materials in days; a contractor driving in from outside the region often waits for the same item.
• Travel time and crew economics — a scheduled Lubbock-to-Stanton / Ackerly crew rotation treats mobilization as a planned part of the work rather than an improvised daily haul. That keeps the proposal tied to the scope and makes repeat site visits practical for rural properties.

Martin County projects may be administered through a regional or state program rather than a county office.

Eligibility is determined by the program administrator.

Next step

If you have a Martin County project in mind — a single-scope remodel, a whole-home rehabilitation, accessibility modifications, weatherization, or storm-damage repair — the next step is either a written quote (send photos and a short description) or a scheduled on-site estimate (we come to the property). Both responses come back from a project lead, not a sales inbox.
