For Edgar Barrios, the story of Barrios Exteriors LLC is about more than business. It’s about family, hard work, and lessons passed down through generations. Growing up in a small Texas town, Edgar spent his time either training for football or helping his family, often alongside his brothers and father. Today, as a proud husband and father of three, Edgar carries those early lessons into the company he leads, where integrity and craftsmanship are the cornerstones.

Edgar credits his father for shaping his career and values. His dad began as a humble stonemason, eventually apprenticing in multiple trades and mastering each through perseverance and determination. He built more than homes and businesses — he built a legacy of grit and excellence.

Edgar vividly remembers being just thirteen when he was handed responsibility for his own tasks while the family was building their first home from the ground up. From setting Austin Limestone to raising walls and roofing, he learned that shortcuts weren’t acceptable. “If something was off, we were to tear down and start over,” he recalls. That discipline instilled a belief that doing things right the first time is always worth the effort.

Now, as both a business owner and father, Edgar understands those lessons more deeply than ever. “Thanks to my father, I value quality and longevity over maximizing profit,” he says. “Providing a better product allows peace of mind for you as much as it does for me.”

Founded on that family philosophy, Barrios Exteriors LLC offers a wide range of exterior services: roofing, siding, painting, gutters, and windows. They also serve as insurance specialists, guiding homeowners through storm damage claims and repairs — a process that can otherwise feel overwhelming.

What sets Barrios Exteriors apart isn’t just the services they provide, but the way they approach them. Their mission is clear: maximize quality within budget. Edgar emphasizes that his team doesn’t just complete jobs; they educate clients along the way, ensuring homeowners understand the work being done and how it protects their investment long-term. That combination of transparency and craftsmanship has earned the company a reputation for reliability.

Beyond business, Edgar and his team remain committed to serving their community. One recent project involved partnering with the Amistad Club of Round Rock to improve the living space of an elderly community member. The Club raised donations to cover materials, while Barrios Exteriors donated labor. The result wasn’t just a safer, more comfortable home — it was proof of how local businesses can step in to uplift their neighbors.

Every business faces unexpected hurdles, and Edgar recalls one project that stands out. While working on a church siding job, his team uncovered extensive termite damage. What should have been a simple repair quickly escalated into a structural challenge requiring additional supports and major adjustments.

Rather than shy away from the problem, Barrios Exteriors tackled it head-on. “What seemed like an impossible issue turned into an exciting opportunity to revise and rebuild,” Edgar explains. That experience not only saved the project but reinforced the company’s commitment to problem-solving with creativity and integrity.

As for the future, Edgar has a clear vision. “Our goal is to continue to grow and become a local household name with a golden reputation that will long last my last breath,” he says. That vision includes completing a particularly meaningful project: repairs on his hometown church, a milestone that ties his professional mission to his personal roots.

When asked what advice he would give Wolf Ranch residents, Edgar doesn’t hesitate. “Work with a local contractor you trust. Cheaper does not mean better. Some of my most expensive projects have come from redoing someone else’s mistakes.” His words are a reminder that investing in quality upfront can save time, money, and stress down the road.

At it's heart, Barrios Exteriors LLC is a continuation of the legacy Edgar’s father began decades ago: working hard, learning constantly, and treating every project with pride. With a vision to become a trusted household name, Edgar and his team are building more than strong exteriors — they’re building trust, community, and peace of mind, one home at a time.
