The Backstory
Origin Story
Alexsca, LLC was born out of a desire to provide a licensed, insured, and family-driven alternative in the Houston construction market. Alexander and Ray saw a need for a team that combined the personal care of a local family business with the high-level expertise of a commercial design-build firm. They built their company on the simple premise that doing the job right the first time is the only way to build a lasting legacy in Texas.

Core Values
What matters most to Alexander and Ray is the intersection of quality, honesty, and craftsmanship. They are driven by the goal of creating structures that reflect their clients’ unique visions while maintaining the highest standards of integrity. For them, a project isn’t successful until it has delivered total peace of mind to the owner.
