Since the 1960s it has gone from cotton, rail and oil to planned suburbs, and that shift decides most of how a roof or a remodel gets done here.

Service area questions
Do you work outside the city of Houston?
Most of our work is outside the city limits: Cypress, Katy, The Woodlands, Sugar Land, Pearland and the towns around them, across twelve counties.
Is there a trip charge for the farther towns?
Call (832) 364-6271 and tell us where you are. We will tell you up front whether distance changes anything.
Do you handle permits in unincorporated areas?
Yes. Unincorporated places have no city hall, so the rules come from the county and the state. We sort out what applies before work starts.
My town is not listed. Will you still come?
Probably. The list is the towns we see most. Call and ask.
How fast can you get out to look at storm damage?
It depends on the storm and how many calls come in after it. Call, describe the damage, and we will tell you honestly when we can be there.
