Permit Expediting & City Compliance in Katy, TX
$1,500–$12,000 per project
Permitting is where most Katy-area projects lose two to six weeks. Submittals come back incomplete, plan-review comments sit unanswered, and inspections get scheduled too late. We expedite commercial and residential permits through the City of Katy and Harris or Fort Bend County: assembling the submittal package, managing plan-review comments, coordinating MEP sub-permits, and scheduling inspections in the right order. It's the same permit work we do on every buildout, offered as a standalone service for owners, brokers, and other contractors who need the city process handled by someone who does it every week.
What We Do
- Commercial and residential permit packages assembled and filed in Katy
- City of Katy and Harris or Fort Bend County plan-review comment management

Common questions about Permit Expediting in Katy
What does a permit expediter do?
We prepare and file the permit package, track it through plan review, respond to reviewer comments, and schedule inspections in the right order, all in-house, instead of subbing the chase out. The value isn't the filing itself. It's knowing which jurisdiction reviews what, and catching the comment that would otherwise sit unanswered for a week.
Do I file with the City of Katy or with the county?
It depends on whether your parcel sits inside Katy city limits. The City of Katy reviews permits within its limits, while unincorporated Katy addresses file with Harris County or Fort Bend County instead, with the county fire marshal reviewing commercial occupancies. Filing at the wrong office is pure schedule loss, so we confirm from the parcel.
Can you expedite permits for a project you are not building?
Yes. We take permit expediting and City of Katy compliance work as a standalone engagement, separate from acting as your general contractor. That's useful when you already have a builder but nobody on the team who knows the local review process.
