Weather sets the rhythm of this work along the Gulf Coast, and Greater Heights is no exception: humidity stretches dry times, summer storms interrupt exterior schedules, and a crew that plans around both finishes on time. Wind-driven rain in this region tests an entry door harder than day-to-day weather ever will.

Here is the order of operations in Greater Heights: we look at the work in person, price it in writing, book a start date you agree to, do the job, and walk your Greater Heights project with you at the end. No stage gets skipped and nothing gets added without your say.
