When you’re investing in a home remodel, addition, or new build in Austin, Texas, the last thing you want to worry about is theft. Unfortunately, construction site theft is a growing issue across Central Texas, costing homeowners and contractors time, money, and peace of mind. At Stephen Thomas Construction we prioritize safety and security alongside quality craftsmanship. Here’s how we help protect your property from day one.
- Secure Perimeters and Locks
Every construction site—whether for a custom home addition or a large-scale new build—should have clear boundaries. Fences, gates, and heavy-duty locks help deter unauthorized access. We make sure every project site is secured after hours.
- Use Motion-Sensor Lighting and Cameras
Lighting is a powerful deterrent. For high-value projects like full home renovations or custom new homes, we install motion-activated lighting and recommend mobile surveillance cameras to keep an eye on tools and materials.
- Timely Material Deliveries
Instead of storing valuable materials on site for extended periods, we coordinate “just-in-time” delivery—especially important for Austin home remodels where space can be limited and theft risks are higher.
- Partner with Trusted Local Trades
Our vetted network of local subcontractors in Austin ensures that everyone on your property is authorized and accountable. This adds another layer of protection during additions and remodels.
- Community Awareness
We inform neighbors and local law enforcement when a project begins. For long-term new build construction projects, this helps create a neighborhood watch effect that deters would-be thieves.
