Construction & Remodeling in San Antonio, TX

San Antonio is mostly single-family homes, with a large share built before 1980 and historic districts where exterior work needs review. Common projects include kitchen and bath remodels, roof replacements after hail, foundation repairs and additions.

What shapes a project in San Antonio

Local conditions worth knowing before scope and budget are set.

  1. Mostly single-family, with older neighborhoods

    The 2020-2024 American Community Survey counted about 613,000 housing units in San Antonio, with a median year built of 1985. About 59 percent were single-family detached homes. About 43 percent were built before 1980, and about 19 percent before 1960.

  2. Historic districts need exterior review

    In San Antonio, changes to the exterior of properties in historic districts need a Certificate of Appropriateness. Applications are filed through the city's applications portal, and some are reviewed by the Historic and Design Review Commission.

  3. What the city permits

    San Antonio requires a permit to build, remodel, repair or demolish a structure, though some general repairs are on a no-permit list. New homes, room additions over 1,000 square feet, any two-story addition and re-roofing that changes the pitch need plan review. Re-roofing with no pitch change, foundation repairs, demolition and minor repairs to windows, doors, walls, siding and floors can be permitted over the counter.
