Hurst Creek - Lakeway Home Renovation Updates


We’re thrilled to share the latest progress on our project in Lakeway - a renovation and home addition on Hurst Creek.


Just last week, the foundation was formed and set—a critical step to ensure stability and longevity. The contractors meticulously excavated the site, leveling the ground and reinforcing it with steel and concrete. The new foundation is now in place, framing is well underway.


The framing of the master bedroom suite is taking shape. The rhythmic hammering echoes through the house as walls rise, defining the layout. We can envision the spacious bedroom, the cozy bathroom, and the walk-in closet. The framing crew pays attention to every detail, ensuring that windows align perfectly, doorways are well-placed, and the roof trusses fit snugly. It’s a symphony of construction— a promise of comfort and luxury for the new homeowners.


As part of the renovation, all of the old windows were replaced with energy-efficient units. The rooms are now flooded with natural light, creating a sense of openness and connection to the outdoors. But it’s not just about aesthetics; these windows are designed to keep the home comfortable year-round. The double-glazed glass acts as a thermal barrier, preventing heat from escaping during winter and keeping the scorching Texas sun at bay during summer. Energy bills have noticeably decreased, and we’re doing our part for the environment too.


RESCheck is a permit requirement in the City of Lakeway. We have to export a report to show compliance, which includes R and U values of each window More information found: REScheck | Building Energy Codes Program


Stay tuned for more updates as our vision becomes reality!



About Hurst Creek


Motif was hired to measure and document (original blueprints were not available) an existing home in the Lakeway neighborhood. The owners were seeking a permit to renovate selected areas on the home and built a new addition that meets the City requirements.


As their trusted architect, we collaborated with the contractor and City of Lakeway to produced the documentation required for permitting, code compliance and construction.

 

Our team also worked with a structural engineer, to verify load bearing walls and generate demolition plans to expand several rooms inside the house.

Why Permit Sets?


Permit Documentation also known and ‘Approval Drawings’ could seem like a daunting task for many owners and contractor. Nonetheless, they are an important part of the process and cannot be avoided. 

Motif can help you through this task by preparing home renovation permit sets based on your design vision and submit to your local jurisdiction for approvals. Our Permit Set Drawings & Documentation include basic information on the project, floor and site plans, elevations, sections, site plan, details, materials selection and system notes/references.

We ensure fine detailing and accurate drawing so that you can adhere to schedules and execute projects within your timeline, reducing costs significantly in the process.
