Builder Chris Cokins grew up in the Lake Travis area. He went on to earn a business degree from SMU. In the late ’90s, Chris worked with his father and brother to build his first three houses in Apache Shores, and he absolutely loved it. Chris and his family moved back to the area permanently to launch C&A Builders in 2000, and have built more than 200 homes in the Lake Travis area.
ABOUT C&A BUILDERS:
Clients appreciate Chris:
“Chris is the glue and he’s the reason that 100 percent of our clients are referrals. Our clients appreciate him because he’s really what drives the company and he’s got your back. At the end of a project, our clients say that Chris protected through throughout the entire process. He protects their budget, he gets them the best vendor pricing, and he even protects the client from making ineffective or emotional choices. He even puts the clients’ interests ahead of his own. We believe in handshake deals, in honoring your word, in doing your best and standing behind your work. “
We’re local:
“C&A Builders is known for supporting the Lake Travis community, where Chris grew up. We live in the neighborhood where we build, and our clients’ kids go to school with our kids. We use local bankers, contractors, superintendents, and vendors, as close to the Lake Travis area as possible. Given the opportunity, we will choose a small Mom and Pop versus a Big Box company, because that’s more of who we are.”
Craftsmanship:
“Realtors around town know that when it comes to custom houses and consistent quality, we’re at the top. Realtors show our houses and consistently say they are the best quality.”
On the job site every day:
“We don’t wear jeans and nice white shirts because we’re out there working on the job site every day. The contractors like it when the builder is out there working, especially when it’s over 100 degrees. There’s a lot of mutual respect.”
Warranty:
“It rarely happens, but if a client calls with a warranty issue, we almost always are there within a day, and we live right around the corner.”
Awards:
“We don’t spend a lot of time applying for awards, but we’re proud to say that among the hundreds of Austin builders, we’ve been named an Austin Business Journal Top 10 Builder for five consecutive years.”
Great superintendents:
“Our superintendents are Jeff and Roy. They have worked for some of the top builders in Austin, but each of them came to C&A looking for an opportunity to work here because they believe in what we do. As some people know, the builder industry has some individuals who are not as reputable as they could be. Our superintendents came here because they wanted to be part of a company that treated its clients with honesty.”
“Chris is the glue and he’s the reason that 100 percent of our clients are referrals.”
