Brad CarpentierTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
Danny and his crew have done a couple of jobs for me, most recently installing a new roof on my house. I'm extremely happy with his work and my choice of his company was fortuitous. It turned out that much was missed in the insurance inspection and because Heart of Texas Construction is a contractor and not just a roofing company, they were able to handle the holes and rotten decking and framing and broken joists in the attic. They weren't just shingle shovelers. Despite all the extra work, the price remained extremely competitive. He did what he said he would do and all of the work was completed properly. I still have a lot of work to do on other projects and will continue to hire Danny do the work. Not many people can say that who have had the same craftsmen do more than one job for them.![]()

Danny and his team built a set of horse stalls in our barn, and I can't speak highly enough of their professionalism and honesty throughout the entirety of our project. If there was work that came outside of the scope, Danny gave us a fair price on it, and delivered above expectations. If there were imperfections in the manufactured stalls, Danny fixed the welding at not cost to us. We can away with a beautifully done project, and we already have them scheduled to come back for another project!
