Planned Neighborhoods and Homes Built in the 2000s

Kyle is the largest city in Hays County and one of the fastest growing in Texas. Known as the Pie Capital of Texas and home to Lake Kyle, Plum Creek, and Texas Pie Company, the city has scaled up through dense suburban growth over the past 15 years. Subdivisions like Plum Creek, Bunton Creek, 6 Creeks, and Kensington account for thousands of homes built in the 2010s, which means a substantial portion of Kyle housing stock is now hitting the maintenance and upgrade window where small jobs start to add up.

The Handy Bro is based in Dripping Springs, roughly 25 miles and 30 minutes west of Kyle. The Handy Bro works the Buda and Kyle corridor weekly, which makes scheduling a Kyle property walk simple. The regular route also means follow up visits, return trips for stain coats, and seasonal lawn applications can be planned efficiently without the surcharge that comes with one off long drives.

Common Kyle requests come from the maturing tract home market. TV mounting and ceiling fan installs in homes where the original installs have started to fail. Cedar fence repair and staining on 8 to 12 year old fences across Plum Creek and Bunton Creek. Dryer vent cleaning in homes that have never had it done. Closet and cabinet hardware upgrades in lived in homes. And mulch, edging, and bed cleanup across the larger lot communities.
