Can you handle other work while you are here?

Do you cover Sheldon?

Yes. Sheldon is inside our Harris County service area, as is Channelview 4.7 miles away.

Do you take on small fence staining 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.

Do I need a permit for fence staining in Sheldon?

Sheldon is unincorporated, so any permitting runs through Harris County, and deed restrictions or an HOA may have their own rules. Cosmetic work like painting rarely needs a permit; structural, plumbing and electrical work often does. We confirm what your scope requires before starting.
