Embrace the Charm of Older Homes
If you live in Austin or San Antonio, you’re likely familiar with the charm and quirks of older homes. Many homes in these areas were built with materials like Butler Brick, Calcasieu Lumber, and Austin White Lime. These materials contribute to the unique character of your home but also present specific challenges during renovations. For instance, old galvanized, copper, or PVC pipes are common in these houses, and assessing the current plumbing conditions is crucial. At Radiant, we provide comprehensive plumbing inspections to identify necessary upgrades and prevent future issues, ensuring your remodel starts on the right foot.
Modernizing Your Plumbing System
Updating your bathroom’s plumbing system is a critical step in any remodel, especially in Austin’s tech-savvy hubs and San Antonio’s historic districts. Old plumbing systems need to meet modern standards for safety and efficiency. Replacing old or damaged pipes can prevent future leaks and ensure a reliable plumbing system. Consistent and adequate water pressure is also essential for a comfortable bathroom experience. Radiant specializes in expert pipe replacement and provides customized solutions to address water pressure issues, giving you peace of mind.
Choosing the Perfect Fixtures
The selection of fixtures plays a significant role in the overall look and functionality of your bathroom. Austin’s eclectic style and San Antonio’s blend of historic and Southwestern influences require thoughtful selection of bathroom fixtures. Radiant helps homeowners select fixtures that not only match their design preferences but also meet local conservation efforts. Our skilled installation services guarantee that these fixtures are installed correctly, preventing leaks and ensuring optimal performance.
Water Efficiency and Sustainability
In addition to fixture selection, water efficiency is a necessity in areas that have experienced severe droughts, like Austin and San Antonio. Installing water-saving fixtures such as low-flow toilets and faucets can significantly reduce water usage. Additionally, upgrading to energy-efficient water heaters can improve energy efficiency and lower utility bills. Radiant recommends and installs eco-friendly fixtures and energy-efficient water heaters, helping you create a sustainable and cost-effective bathroom.
Handling Drainage and Ventilation
We all know how unpredictable Texas weather can be, with heavy rains that, if not properly managed, can lead to significant drainage issues. Effective drainage systems are crucial to preventing water damage. Add in the frequent humidity, and you have a recipe for mold and mildew growth. Radiant offers comprehensive drainage solutions and expert installation of ventilation systems to maintain air quality and prevent humidity-related problems.

Navigating local building codes and permit requirements can be daunting. However, with our deep knowledge of Austin and San Antonio’s regulations, Radiant ensures that all work complies with local building codes.
