Humble, Atascocita and the Lake Houston side
Northeast of the airport, Humble, Atascocita and Kingwood share the same Lake Houston setting but three different sets of rules.
The City of Humble itself is small, centered on its old downtown and the stretch along US 59 and FM 1960. Around it lie Atascocita, a large unincorporated community along the west shore of Lake Houston, and Kingwood, which became part of the City of Houston in 1996. Three places that look alike can mean three different permit offices for driveway or sidewalk work: the City of Humble, Harris County, or the City of Houston.
This is San Jacinto River country, and the area saw serious flooding during Harvey in 2017 as the lake and river rose. Drainage is on people's minds here, and it's on ours: slabs are sloped to send water to the street or a drain, and we don't pour anything that makes a low corner of a lot hold more water.
Typical jobs on this side of town are driveway replacements in the older Atascocita and Humble neighborhoods, patios and pool decks in the newer sections, and walks lifted or replaced under the area's big trees.
What Humble homeowners ask us to pour

Slab lifting
Settled garage-side and walk panels raised back level.

Humble questions
Is Atascocita part of Humble?
No. Atascocita is unincorporated Harris County, so right-of-way permits there usually come from the County, while the City of Humble handles addresses inside its limits and the City of Houston handles Kingwood.
Can you help a patio drain better after flooding?
Yes. Lifting the low side, rebuilding with a real fall, and adding a drain or swale are all options we'll price.
Do you work in Kingwood?
Yes. Kingwood is inside the City of Houston, so City permits apply to work at the street.
