Selected Work
The work speaks quietly.
Capabilities
The full finish scope, one accountable trade.
Field Layout & Drawing Coordination
Pre-installation field layout from architectural drawings — sightlines, centerlines, and elevation control set against real framing, with trade conflicts flagged early.
Paneling & Wainscoting
Full-height paneling, applied molding, wainscoting, and rail-and-stile rooms — laid out to the room dimensions, not the sheet good.
Coffered Ceilings & Box Beams
Coffered ceilings, exposed beams, and box-beam grids planned around lighting, HVAC, and framing before the first cut.
Trim, Casing & Crown
Tight miters, consistent reveals, clean transitions at every door, window, and run — including stacked profiles and architectural casings.
Custom Built-Ins & Media Walls
Libraries, entertainment walls, window seats, mudroom systems, and closets — scribed to field conditions and finished as architecture.
Mantels & Fireplace Surrounds
The room's focal point, executed level, plumb, and proportioned to the elevation — coordinated with stone, steel, and venting requirements.
Doors, Hidden Doors & Hardware
Door installation, alignment, and tuning — including concealed and jib doors integrated invisibly into paneling, with hardware coordination handled early.
Stair Components & Handrails
Treads, risers, newels, balusters, and handrails fitted to code and to the eye — consistent reveals, smooth transitions, solid feel.
Stain-Grade Millwork Install
Stain-grade installation where every joint shows — grain matched, reveals consistent, fasteners hidden, finish protected from delivery through closeout.
Architectural Punch Lists
End-of-project architectural punch executed to designer and owner standards — correcting reveals, joints, and finish details other trades left behind.
The trade you bring into the meeting.
Most subs are managed. Kamaka is consulted. We read the drawings, flag conflicts before they cost money, protect the schedule, and finish without callbacks — so builders, architects, and designers put us in front of their clients with confidence.

Service Area
Austin & the Texas Hill Country.
Based in the Austin area, Kamaka serves luxury residential projects across the greater Austin metro and the Hill Country — where the homes are custom, the details are drawn, and the standard is set by the architect, not the schedule.
Precision is a decision. Make it early.
The best finish work is planned before drywall. Bring Kamaka in while the details are still on paper.
