I founded the firm of Hills of Texas Homes, Inc. in July 2001, while I was working for my father, Jack Stephens, at his engineering firm in Dallas and getting a mechanical engineering degree from Southern Methodist University. My intent was to perform historical renovations in the Dallas area as a side business to our engineering work. After my children were born, my wife and I decided that we wanted to raise our family in a small town environment.
We took a leap of faith and moved down to Fredericksburg in January 2006. We asked my father and mother, Jack and Joyce, if they would consider moving down to work with me building homes in the Hill Country. They moved down shortly thereafter and Hills of Texas Homes was up and running. As of October, 2019, we have completed over 85 projects ranging from a master bathroom remodel to a 9,000 sf custom home.
Based on the wants and needs of the client, I design and produce floor plans and construction drawings in the office so no outside architect or plan designer is required. I also supervise the day to day activities on the project site and coordinate all of the subcontractors.
