MLA Contracting remodels island homes in Port Aransas with the salt air in mind. The crew comes over from Corpus Christi and builds to hold up out on Mustang Island.
Port Aransas sits out on Mustang Island, where the salt air and the coastal weather are harder on a house than anywhere on the mainland. Materials that would last for years inland can corrode, warp, or fade a lot faster this close to the Gulf, so the choices you make on a remodel matter more here.
MLA builds with that in mind. Decks and patio covers, exterior paint and the prep underneath it, fencing, and full kitchen and bath remodels all get planned around what the island actually does to a home over time. Getting the details right up front is what keeps a coastal project looking good years later.
Plenty of the homes out here are second homes or rental properties, so the crew works around a schedule that keeps the place ready for the next season. Estimates are done in person, and the scope and price are in writing before the first board goes up.
On Mustang Island the outdoor and weather-exposed work matters most. Here is what MLA takes on for Port Aransas homeowners.
01 / DecksDecks, patio covers, and pergolas are where island living happens. Built and fastened to take the sun, wind, and salt off the Gulf.

02 / PaintingExterior paint takes a beating on the coast. MLA does the prep and caulking underneath it so the finish holds, not just the color coat.

03 / FencingWood and privacy fencing set to stand up to island wind, so it holds its line season after season instead of leaning after the first storm.

“I was very impressed with the preparation time… This was a 1939 cypress building that weathered Harvey and required 'a lot' of caulking… Bid was in the mid range of five bids and well worth the results… I highly recommend them.”
Port Aransas sits out on Mustang Island. The crew comes over from the Corpus Christi shop to cover the island's homes and properties.
Yes. Port Aransas is a regular part of MLA's service area. The crew comes over from the Corpus Christi shop to handle work across Mustang Island.
The salt air and humidity are hard on materials and finishes, so a remodel this close to the Gulf lives or dies on the prep and the material choices. MLA walks you through the options that hold up out here and does the prep work that makes an exterior finish last.
Yes. A lot of island homes are second homes or rentals, so MLA sets a clear scope and price up front and works around a schedule that keeps the property ready for the next guest or the next season.
Projects begin at $5,000. The final number follows the size of the space, the materials you choose, and what is behind the walls. Coastal-grade materials can move that figure, and it is all laid out in writing before work begins.
Tell Juan about the property and he will come over for an in-person estimate. It takes about an hour and it is free, right there on the island.
