Do you cover West University Place?
West University Place is covered. It falls within Harris County, which we service in full.
Do I need a permit for exterior door installation in West University Place?
Permit rules in West University Place are set by the city, and they differ from the unincorporated parts of Harris County. Cosmetic work like painting rarely needs one; structural, plumbing and electrical work often does. We confirm what your scope requires before starting.
Do you take on small exterior door installation jobs?

Can you handle other work while you are here?

How long will the work take?
Your quote includes a duration estimate for your specific scope. Wind-driven rain in this region tests an entry door harder than day-to-day weather ever will.
