In this episode of The Home Remodeler Toolbox Podcast, host Bob Vance sits down with Kristen and Michelle, the powerhouse duo behind Remodel Boutique in Austin, Texas. What began as a real estate side hustle quickly evolved into a full-fledged design-build firm known for its creative, family-focused remodels and inclusive approach to construction.

Kristen and Michelle share how they transitioned from flipping homes to running a respected, woman-led remodeling company—without formal training in construction. They open up about the challenges of earning credibility in a male-dominated industry, the importance of transparency and ownership when mistakes happen, and how tech and AI tools are streamlining their systems and empowering their all-female team.

Listeners will take away real-world insights on building a brand based on trust, designing spaces that actually work for families, and why showing up authentically matters more than perfection. This episode is a must-listen for anyone growing a remodeling business from the ground up—and especially for women, minorities, or self-taught pros carving their place in the trades.
