Remodeling, additions, and custom homes in Cypress
Harris County, Texas
The short answer
Yes, we work in Cypress.
Cypress is an unincorporated community in northwest Harris County, which means there is no city building department. That surprises a lot of homeowners and it changes how permitting works.
What tends to come up on Cypress projects
-
Because Cypress is unincorporated, residential permits typically run through Harris County rather than a city office.
-
Large master-planned communities dominate the area, and their architectural review committees weigh in on exterior work.
-
Drainage is a recurring topic here and shapes how we plan additions and outdoor living projects.
Who issues the permit
Unincorporated Harris County properties typically permit through Harris County. Some Cypress addresses fall inside a municipal utility district or a city ETJ that adds its own steps. We confirm.
