THE KITCHEN
BEHIND
THE KITCHEN.
Superior craftsmanship. Premium client experience. Integrity in every detail. Tayton Remodeling designs and builds custom scullery kitchens and butler pantries for Austin's most discerning homeowners — from the first conversation to the final walk-through.
THE HIDDEN ENGINE OF A GREAT HOME.
A scullery kitchen is a dedicated secondary prep and cleanup space positioned adjacent to your primary kitchen. It keeps your main kitchen pristine and open while the real work happens behind the door — out of sight, exactly where it belongs.
In Austin's most thoughtfully designed luxury homes, the scullery has moved from a nice-to-have to an expectation. It's the feature your guests won't see — and your family won't be able to live without.
- Secondary sink, dishwasher & refrigeration — cleanup stays invisible
- Dedicated prep area for catering, baking, and holiday entertaining
- Appliance garage eliminates counter clutter in the main kitchen
- Coffee, beverage & wine stations tucked away but always accessible
- Pass-through to outdoor kitchen or dining for seamless entertaining flow
- 70–85% ROI in Austin's luxury residential market

THREE REASONS SCULLERIES ARE TAKING OVER WEST AUSTIN.
The demand isn't random. It's driven by the way affluent Austin homeowners live, entertain, and build lasting equity.
Entertainer Culture
Austin's affluent homeowners entertain constantly. A scullery means your main kitchen stays flawless for guests while the real work happens behind the door — exactly how it should look.
Stay & Invest
With home values up 30–50% in Westlake, Barton Creek, and Tarrytown, most homeowners are choosing to remodel rather than relocate. A scullery makes a $2M home function like a $4M home — without the move.
Strong ROI
Sculleries and butler pantries consistently deliver 70–85% direct ROI on resale in Austin's luxury market. For a project that transforms daily life and adds real equity, few remodels compete.
"Overall, we are thrilled with the results and the process was not at all like the nightmare construction stories that friends had relayed. Chuck Taylor was great at managing the planning phase — his proposal was accurate and complete, the project was completed nearly on time and on budget."
"I had a vision for my dream kitchen and they delivered, working hard to make sure I got the materials that I was looking for. They are thorough communicators, honest and fair with their pricing, deliver quality work & when issues came up, they were very quick to correct them. They will go above and beyond to make sure you are 100% satisfied."

A scullery is a dedicated secondary prep and cleanup kitchen positioned directly adjacent to your main kitchen. It handles dishwashing, appliance storage, catering prep, and cleanup work — keeping your primary kitchen pristine and show-ready at all times.
Scullery remodels in Austin typically range from $45,000 to $150,000+, depending on scope, finishes, and structural requirements. Tayton uses fixed lump-sum pricing — one complete cost delivered upfront. What we quote is what you pay.
Yes. Most existing homes have a space adjacent to the kitchen that can be converted or expanded into a functional scullery. We evaluate your layout during the free consultation and design a solution that integrates seamlessly with your existing architecture.
Most scullery projects run 8–14 weeks from signed contract to completion, including design finalization, permitting, and all construction phases. We give you a specific timeline in your proposal — and we stick to it.
We serve the greater Austin metro with particular depth in West Austin — Westlake, Barton Creek, Tarrytown, Rollingwood, Lakeway, Bee Cave, Lost Creek, Zilker, Travis Heights, Hyde Park, Rosedale, Circle C, Dripping Springs, Belterra, and surrounding areas.
Always lump-sum. We develop a complete scope of work and deliver one fixed price before any commitment. This protects you from surprise change orders and keeps the project on budget from day one.
