Do you serve all of Harris County?

Yes, Harris County is core coverage for us, Neartown-Montrose included, along with the neighboring counties in the Houston metro. If a project sits outside it, we say so on the first call instead of padding the price.

Do I need a permit for wood rot repair in Neartown-Montrose?

It depends on the scope. Purely cosmetic work usually needs no permit, while anything structural, electrical or plumbing-related often does. We check the rules that apply to your address and handle what is required before work begins.

How long will the work take?

That is set by your scope, and the quote for your Neartown-Montrose job states the working days we expect. Rot here is usually a water-path problem, so we find the source before closing it up.

Do you take on small wood rot repair jobs?

Yes, and we quote them the same way everywhere in Harris County: in writing after a look, so a small job never turns into a surprise invoice.

What does wood rot repair actually include?

Your written scope lists it line by line. As a baseline: Trim, fascia, sills and jambs probed for soft wood, and failed material cut out back to solid framing.

Do you cover Neartown-Montrose?

the Neartown-Montrose area of Houston sits inside Harris County, and the housing stock changes street to street.
