At Tell Projects, we pride ourselves on the quality of our work and the relationships we build with our clients. One of our recent projects was for a fantastic client named Gabriel Vazquez, who reached out to us to install a beautiful home remodel on his property in Houston, Texas. From start to finish, this project was a great experience for both our team and Gabriel, and it showcases what we do best—combining craftsmanship, attention to detail, and personalized service.
Gabriel’s Vision for His Home Remodel
When Gabriel first contacted us, he had a clear vision for the project he wanted. He was looking for a sturdy, reliable home remodel that would offer privacy and security for his family while enhancing the aesthetics of his home. Living in Houston, Texas, Gabriel’s property is located in a vibrant neighborhood where both style and functionality matter.
After an initial consultation, Gabriel decided on a traditional home remodel made from high-quality cedar, a popular choice in Houston for its durability and natural beauty. Cedar is known for its resistance to decay and its ability to withstand the Houston climate, making it the perfect choice for long-term performance.
Planning the Home Remodeling
Once we had a detailed understanding of Gabriel’s needs, our team got to work. One of the things we pride ourselves on at Tell Projects is making sure our clients are involved throughout the process. We believe that good communication is key to delivering exactly what the client wants.
During the planning stage, we went over every detail with Gabriel. We discussed the height of the project, the spacing of the boards, and the finish. Gabriel chose a 6-foot high remodel for optimal privacy, with tightly spaced boards to create a solid barrier. We also discussed adding a weather-resistant stain to protect the wood and enhance its natural color, giving the project a rich, finished look.
The Installation Process
The installation itself was seamless. Our team arrived on the scheduled date, fully prepared with all materials and equipment. We took care to respect Gabriel’s property, working efficiently and keeping the area clean throughout the project.
One thing we always emphasize is the importance of laying a strong foundation. We dug the post holes to the proper depth, ensuring the project would be stable and durable for years to come. Each post was set in concrete to provide maximum strength, especially crucial in Houston where the weather can be unpredictable.
As we installed the project, Gabriel was actively engaged, asking questions and offering input. His involvement made the project feel even more personal, and it was great to see how invested he was in the outcome. We made sure to walk him through each phase of the installation, showing him how the project was coming together piece by piece.
Overcoming Challenges
No project is without its challenges, and this one was no exception. Houston’s unpredictable weather threw us a curveball when a sudden rainstorm delayed our work for a day. However, we kept Gabriel informed and ensured that the delay didn’t affect the overall timeline. In fact, by adjusting our work schedule and increasing our efforts, we managed to complete the project on time without compromising on quality.
The Finished Product
The final result was a stunning home remodel that perfectly matched Gabriel’s vision. The cedar’s warm, natural tone blended beautifully with his home’s exterior, and the 6-foot height provided the privacy he was looking for. The stain we applied not only highlighted the natural grain of the wood but also offered extra protection against the elements, ensuring the project would look great for years to come.
Gabriel was thrilled with the outcome, and it was incredibly satisfying to see how happy he was with the finished product. At Tell Projects, our goal is always to exceed expectations, and we were delighted to hear Gabriel say that we had done just that.
Why This Project Stands Out
What made this project stand out wasn’t just the quality of the project itself, but the relationship we built with Gabriel. It’s clients like him who remind us why we love what we do. His appreciation for our craftsmanship and attention to detail made the entire experience rewarding for our team.
Houston, Texas is home to many wonderful clients like Gabriel, and each project allows us to showcase our expertise while bringing our clients’ visions to life. Whether it’s a home remodel, residential construction, or any other remodeling solution, we approach each project with the same level of dedication and care.

Frequently Asked Questions
We recommend applying a quality stain or sealer within 3-6 months of installation, once the wood has dried. This protects against moisture, UV rays, and extends remodel life significantly.
Cedar is naturally rot and insect resistant with a beautiful grain, but costs more. Pine is more affordable and performs well when pressure-treated. Both are excellent choices for Houston.
Most Houston residential areas allow 6-8 foot home improvements in backyards. Front yard remodels typically have height restrictions. We'll help you understand local regulations.
Properly installed kitchen remodels with deep-set posts and quality construction can withstand most Houston storms. We use hurricane-rated installation methods for added security.
A neighbor-friendly or 'good neighbor' remodel shows the finished side to both properties. We offer board-on-board and alternating panel designs that look great from both sides.
