A cluster of Central Texas homeowners say they put thousands of dollars down with an Austin-area contractor for everything from chimney repairs to irrigation and screen-enclosure work, only to be left waiting on crews that never finished the jobs. Several customers say refunds have been slow or never showed up at all, and one Cedar Park homeowner who won a $10,000 small-claims judgment says she still has not collected. The contractor at the center of the complaints, K.T.A. Build and Design, is owned by Kaden Tyler Williams, who has disputed some of the allegations.
As reported by KVUE, Cedar Park homeowner Lynn Brzostek says she hired Williams in March 2025 and paid roughly $8,000 to restore her chimney. She says the work was left incomplete, leaving the structure exposed to the elements. According to the same reporting, other customers say they also paid deposits: Joe Charles paid $1,500 for a screen enclosure, Eloina Gonzalez says she paid a $500 irrigation deposit, and Glen Teague says he is owed about $850. Brzostek says at least 10 people contacted her with similar complaints.
In a phone interview, Williams pushed back on some of the claims and told KVUE, “projects take time,” saying scheduling and supply issues had delayed some work. Reporters who went to the business listing’s Round Rock address said no one answered the door when they knocked.
Business Records And How Customers Found Him

That combination, a business formed less than a year ago and customer connections made through Facebook or Nextdoor, helps explain why some homeowners say they had limited paperwork and few references before paying deposits.
