J&A Builders LLC is a family-owned business proudly operated by Jonathan and Adrianna Hinojosa in El Campo, TX.

Our Expertise
We specialize in constructing custom cabins, homes, and other structures directly on location. Our work is tailored for various uses, whether it’s recreational, residential, or any other purpose. Some of the unique locations where we excel include:
• Undeveloped or remote land
• Waterfront properties
• Wooded areas
No project is too challenging for our team—we thrive in creating structures that adapt to diverse terrains and conditions.
Our Process
FOUNDATION
​
• Crawlspace Pier & Beam: Ideal for sloping or undeveloped land, this method elevates the structure and includes skirting options for a finished look.
• Beams on Concrete Blocks: A cost-effective and durable standard foundation method.
• Concrete Slab: Perfect for long-term durability, with optional extensions for porches, garages, or driveways.
SIDING
​
• Natural Cedar: Our signature style for cabins, offering a rustic, unique appearance with vertical or horizontal installations.
• Primed Smart Panel: A versatile, conventional siding option available in sheets or horizontal planks, customizable to match barn or vintage aesthetics.
Framing
We use 2x4 and 2x6 exterior framing set at 16” on center. Walls can be customized to 8’, 9’, or 10’ heights, with options for flat or vaulted ceilings.
Roofing
All roofs are constructed with galvalume metal panels in a variety of colors, with weatherproofing using felt paper, sealants, and foam closures for added durability.
Flooring & Underlayment
Floors are built with 1 1/8” Advantech tongue-and-groove subflooring atop treated 2x8 lumber, spaced at 24” on center. We use OSB sheathing and radiant barriers for walls and roofs, topped with moisture barriers for extra protection.
Doors & Windows
Each structure comes with a standard 36” steel entry door and customizable options for additional doors or windows in aluminum or vinyl frames. Sliding or French doors can also be added for enhanced style and functionality.
Service Area
We primarily serve locations within a 1-hour radius of El Campo, TX, but we are open to travel for larger projects. For builds requiring extended travel, we arrange nearby lodging to ensure seamless progress on your project.
