What we do

Permits, construction & engineering in Houston

Most projects stall in the gaps between the engineer, the permit office and the builder. We cover all three, so nothing waits on a hand-off.

SVC-01

Permits

We prepare the application, assemble the drawings the reviewer needs, and answer plan-review comments until the permit issues.

  • Building, remodel and addition permits
  • Plan-review comment responses
  • Inspection scheduling and close-out
SVC-02

General construction

We manage the build from mobilization to final walk-through, with the approved plan set on site and inspections booked ahead of each phase.

  • Commercial and residential projects
  • Renovations, build-outs and additions
  • Subcontractor coordination
SVC-03

Engineering services

We produce the engineering your permit and your build depend on, drawn to what the reviewer will ask for and what the crew can build from.

  • Structural review and calculations
  • Site and foundation assessments
  • Field fixes during construction
How a permit moves

The Houston building permit process, handled for you

Every permit follows the same five stages. We own each one, and you get an update whenever the job moves from one stage to the next.

  1. Scope review

    We walk the site or the plans and confirm which permits the work actually needs.

  2. Drawings & engineering

    We prepare and stamp the plan set and calculations the application requires.

  3. Submittal

    We file with the jurisdiction and track the application through intake.

  4. Plan review

    We answer reviewer comments and resubmit until the plans are approved.

  5. Issue & inspect

    The permit issues, work begins, and we book and attend each inspection through final.

Construction site in Houston
The engineer, the permit desk and the builder on the same team.

When a reviewer asks for a change, the people who drew the plans are the same people answering, and the answer goes straight to the crew. There's no back-and-forth between separate firms and no re-pricing when the plan set changes.

You get one point of contact, one schedule, and one team accountable for getting the job permitted, built and closed out.
