Luxury Renovations · San Diego & Austin
Transforming Exceptional Homes.
We reimagine existing residences with the same discipline, craftsmanship, and attention to detail that define our custom homes.
A Thoughtful Transformation
Preserve What Matters. Improve Everything Else.
A successful renovation begins with understanding what already works, what no longer serves the home, and how the property should support the next chapter of your life.
Rick Somers Construction brings more than forty years of luxury residential experience to whole-home renovations, additions, interiors, and outdoor living projects. We approach every remodel with a respect for the original architecture and a clear plan for improving flow, performance, comfort, and long-term value.
Whether the goal is a complete estate transformation or a highly focused addition, our team manages the process with transparency, precision, and care.

Renovation Without Guesswork
Clarity Before Construction.
Renovations carry a different kind of complexity. Existing conditions, concealed systems, permitting limitations, structural constraints, and occupied homes all require careful planning.
We begin by documenting the property, identifying risk, establishing scope, and coordinating the design team before construction starts. This early work allows us to create a realistic budget, sequence the project intelligently, and reduce avoidable disruption.
The result is a renovation process that feels deliberate rather than reactive.
Seamless Integration
New Work Should Feel Like It Has Always Belonged.
The best renovations do not look added on. They feel inevitable.
Our team works closely with architects and designers to align proportions, materials, details, and transitions between old and new. We pay equal attention to the visible finish and the underlying performance of the home.
Every intervention is considered in the context of the full property so the completed residence feels coherent, enduring, and entirely personal.
