Is your home working for you, or are you working around your home?
Living in Houston, we deal with a unique set of challenges. We have the humidity that swells cheap furniture, the sudden downpours that turn backyards into swamps, and the sprawling open-concept floor plans that—while beautiful—often leave us with nowhere to hide the clutter.
You walk through the door after a long commute on the 610 Loop or I-10, and the first thing you see is a pile of shoes, backpacks, and umbrellas dumped by the door. Your living room feels cluttered because your “builder-grade” entertainment center doesn’t actually fit your TV or your decor. You have high ceilings, but all that vertical space is just gathering dust instead of storing your belongings.
If you are tired of tripping over life’s mess, it is time to upgrade. At Ace Kustoms, we design and build Custom Built-ins & Mudrooms in Houston, TX that are engineered for our climate and tailored to your lifestyle. We turn chaotic entryways into organized drop zones and blank walls into stunning focal points.
Our custom-built designs make the most of every inch of your home.
Each mudroom and built-in is crafted to fit your lifestyle and home aesthetic.
We use premium hardwood, expert finishes, and durable hardware for long-lasting beauty.
Before we can fix the issue, we have to understand why standard furniture just doesn’t cut it in the Greater Houston area. Most homeowners we visit in neighborhoods like The Heights, Memorial, or out in Katy and Sugar Land are facing the same cluster of problems.
In Houston, we don’t have basements. We rarely have dedicated coat closets large enough for a family. When you, your kids, or your guests enter the house, there is nowhere for the “stuff” to go.
The Issue: Backpacks end up on the kitchen island. Muddy shoes from the park ruin your hardwood floors. Wet raincoats from our tropical storms are draped over dining chairs to dry.
The Result: Your entryway becomes a bottleneck of stress every morning and evening.
Everything is bigger in Texas, including our ceilings. Many homes in Harris and Fort Bend counties feature 10-foot or 12-foot ceilings.
The Issue: Standard bookcases and cabinets are usually only 7 or 8 feet tall. This leaves 2 to 4 feet of “dead space” above the furniture.
The Result: You are paying for square footage you aren’t using, while your closets are bursting at the seams.
This is a silent killer of furniture in our region.
The Issue: Mass-produced furniture from big-box stores is often made of low-density particle board. In Houston’s high humidity, this material acts like a sponge.
The Result: Over time, shelves sag, veneers peel, and paint cracks. That “affordable” bookshelf becomes a piece of trash in three years.
You bought a beautiful home, but it looks exactly like your neighbor’s.
The Issue: Builder-grade niche spaces or entertainment alcoves are often awkward sizes. Finding a piece of furniture to fit perfectly is impossible.
The Result: You end up with gaps on the sides of your cabinets that collect dust and make the room look unfinished.
At Ace Kustoms, we don’t believe in “one size fits all.” We solve the specific problems listed above with architectural-grade solutions. Here is how we transform your home.
A mudroom is your home’s first line of defense against the outside world. We transform utility rooms, hallways, or garage entries into highly functional “Drop Zones.”
Our Custom Mudroom Features:
Integrated Bench Seating: A sturdy place to sit and put on shoes—with deep storage drawers underneath for seasonal gear.
Personalized Cubbies: Dedicated spaces for each family member to hang bags and jackets. No more asking, “Where is my backpack?”
Moisture-Resistant Materials: We use paints and finishes designed to withstand wet coats and humid air without bubbling.
Shoe Storage: Ventilated shelving to keep footwear organized and off the floor.
We maximize your storage by going up. Whether it is a home office, a living room, or a library, we utilize the full height of your room.
Why Custom Built-ins Win:
Seamless Integration: We scribe our cabinets to the wall, meaning no gaps. We match your existing crown molding and baseboards for a look that says “original architecture,” not “add-on furniture.”
Heavy Duty Shelving: Our custom shelving is built with solid wood or reinforced plywood, designed to hold heavy books, art, or electronics without bowing.
Hidden Storage: We combine open display shelves with lower cabinetry to hide the ugly stuff (cables, routers, board games) while displaying the beautiful stuff (photos, decor).
The TV is often the focal point of the living room. We frame it beautifully.
Cable Management: We design built-ins with internal chases to hide wires completely.
Symmetry and Balance: We design the unit to balance the room, often incorporating lighting to highlight display items.
Custom Sizing: Have a 75-inch TV? We build the niche to fit it perfectly, with room to upgrade later if needed.
To combat the Houston climate, we use:
Cabinet-Grade Plywood: Unlike particle board, plywood is dimensionally stable and resists swelling.
Solid Hardwoods: For face frames and doors, offering durability against dings and dents.
Professional Finishing: We utilize high-quality spray finishes that are hard, durable, and easy to clean. If you are looking for specific trim and finishing work, we ensure the new built-ins match your home’s existing palette perfectly.

A custom built-in project often touches on several areas of home improvement. It isn’t just about building a box; it’s about integrating that box into your home’s ecosystem.
When we design a mudroom or a living room unit, we often look at the surrounding areas. Does the new cabinetry flow with your kitchen? If you are considering custom cabinetry and built-ins elsewhere in the house, we can create a cohesive design language that ties the rooms together.
A built-in is only as good as its internal organization. We can incorporate elements from our custom storage solutions—like pull-out drawers, file organizers, or hidden compartments—directly into your new entertainment center or mudroom bench.
The difference between a DIY job and a professional installation is the trim. We take pride in our finish carpentry. If your project requires updating adjacent baseboards or adding wainscoting to match the new built-ins, our expertise in trim installations ensures a flawless transition.
