The Colony Remodeling & General Contractor
Design-build remodeling, additions, and custom construction in The Colony, TX — one accountable team from the first drawing to the final walkthrough.
The Remo Guys is a Collin County–based design-build general contractor serving The Colony, Texas. Instead of hiring a designer, a builder, and a stack of subcontractors separately, The Colony homeowners get one team that owns the whole job — architecture, engineering for our region’s expansive clay, The Colony’s permitting, and construction — from concept through the final walkthrough.
That single line of accountability is what keeps a remodel or a ground-up build on schedule and on budget. Permits in The Colony run through City of The Colony Building Inspections (6053 Main Street), and we carry the plans through that process so the design that gets approved is the design that gets built.
One point of accountability
Design, permitting, and construction sit with a single team — no finger-pointing between an architect, a builder, and a pile of subs.
Design & permits in-house
We draw it, engineer it for North Texas clay, and pull the permits ourselves, so the plan that gets designed is the plan that gets built.
Insured & bonded since 2019
A real, standing local company — not a lead broker — carrying insurance and a bond behind every project.
