McKinney is one of the most architecturally split cities in DFW, and that shapes every remodel we take on here. Around the Historic Downtown square, the second-largest historic district in Texas, homeowners are restoring 1890s and early-1900s Victorian and Craftsman homes, updating dated systems and kitchens while protecting period porches and trim. A few miles out, the picture flips: master-planned communities like Stonebridge Ranch and Craig Ranch, built largely from the 1990s onward, are now aging into their first major remodel cycle, while Trinity Falls, Tucker Hill, and the European-inspired Adriatica Village add newer construction to the mix. Whether you own a century-old downtown home or a 1990s Stonebridge Ranch two-story, UHS Remodeling has remodeled homes across DFW since 2014, with 500+ five-star reviews. Our fixed-price model and 1-year workmanship warranty mean McKinney homeowners know the number before we start.
We deliver home remodeling across the northern DFW suburbs. See our home remodeling in Frisco, Allen, and McKinney.
Co-founders May N. (design) and Daniel B. (construction) lead every UHS project personally, from the first design consultation to the final walkthrough.

Remodeling permits in McKinney are issued by the City of McKinney Building Inspections department (part of Development Services), and applications run through the city’s Citizen Self-Service online portal. McKinney sits entirely within Collin County — it is the county seat — so there’s no second jurisdiction to coordinate. Homes in Stonebridge Ranch or Craig Ranch may also need HOA architectural approval. UHS handles the permit submission and inspections for you.

Yes. Most of our McKinney clients live in their homes during renovation. We set up dust barriers, maintain clean work zones, and schedule work to minimize disruption. For kitchen remodels, we set up a temporary kitchen area.

Yes, in most Collin County communities – including many neighborhoods in McKinney, Frisco, Allen, and McKinney – any exterior alteration or expansion of the home’s footprint requires both a city building permit and written approval from your homeowners association before construction begins. The two run on separate tracks with separate documents and timelines. UHS Remodeling handles the full permitting process for your project, and we prepare the drawings and documentation your HOA review typically requires, so the approvals move in parallel instead of delaying your start date.
Tell us about the house and we’ll set a walkthrough, usually within the week. No cost, and an honest budget range before you commit to anything.
