West University Place
More home on a West U lot — designed, not squeezed.
Designed around your family's routine — and the school run we won't interrupt.
West University Place
The neighborhood
West University Place packs some of Houston's most valuable real estate into a 2.1-square-mile city where lots are small and families are ambitious. The challenge here is never 'more land' — it's making every square foot work: pop-top additions, reworked floor plans, and vertical design that adds room without losing the yard. Because West U is nearly built out, the honest first question is remodel or rebuild — and Bager answers it straight, in the design phase, before you're committed. The build is planned around real life: school runs, the block, the routine you can't pause.
Scope
What we build here
Second-story and pop-top additions, whole-home renovations, kitchen and bath, and space-efficient reconfigurations — with honest remodel-vs-rebuild counsel.

How we work
One studio, start to finish
We build the way you'd want a neighbor to build. One dedicated project manager, communication on a schedule you can plan your life around, and a client portal so you're never chasing an update. Your investment is fixed before we break ground and your workmanship is warrantied in writing — Texas licensed, insured and bonded. We run a clean, respectful site and work around your life, not through it. You don't manage us; you live your life. That's the point.
Questions
Answered plainly
- Should we remodel or tear down and rebuild in West U?
- It depends on the bones and your goals. The design phase gives you the numbers before you commit either way.
- Can we add a second story on our lot?
- Often yes — vertical additions are common in West U. Setbacks and structure decide the envelope.
