belief in or acceptance of something as true; trust.
From the Latin credere, to believe.
Who we are
We built the company to earn it.
A home is the biggest thing most people ever build, and no one should have to gamble on who builds it. Credence is the first thing a builder has to earn, before a single board goes up, and it is the standard behind everything we do.

The credence behind the build

What we hold to
The same team stays with your project from the first conversation to the final walkthrough. Nothing gets lost in a handoff, and someone is always accountable for the result.
A detailed, line-item budget with real allowances. No vague lump sums, and no surprise change orders waiting at the end.
Every home is detailed to a standard we're willing to put our name on. If it isn't there yet, it isn't finished.
How we work
Credence Construction and Design builds custom homes, additions, and remodels across the Austin area and the Texas Hill Country. Whether it's a new home on your land or a major remodel of the one you're in, we treat it as the biggest thing you'll build, because it usually is.
We build the way we'd want our own home built: walk the land or the house first, confirm what your budget will really build before design starts, then put a real number and a real schedule on it, so you go in knowing the cost and the timeline.
Every home is built to its site and the way you actually live. We plan around the slope, the views, the rock, and the Texas climate, then detail it to last. The work in our galleries is the proof, that is the credence behind the name.
How we take care of you
A build is months of your life, not a transaction we rush through. From the first walkthrough to the day you get the keys, you have one point of contact and straight answers, so you always know what is happening and what comes next.
We treat your home and your land like they are our own. That means a job site kept clean and safe, careful work around everything you are keeping, and as little disruption to your day-to-day as the project allows.
And we do not disappear when the work is done. We walk the finished home with you, take care of the punch list, and stand behind what we built after you have moved in. Earning your trust once was never the point, keeping it is.
