Design and permit drawings in Texas City

Texas City has neighborhoods, shops and a major industrial district on Galveston Bay. We design homes, commercial buildings, warehouses and industrial facilities there, drawn for wind and flood from the start.

Permits in Texas City

Inside the city limits, the City of Texas City reviews plans and issues building permits, with an online permit portal. All of Galveston County is in the state's windstorm area, so new buildings, additions and re-roofs need a Texas Department of Insurance windstorm inspection and certificate (WPI-8). Unincorporated parts of the county go through Galveston County Engineering for floodplain permits.

Questions

Do you design industrial projects in Texas City?

Yes. For plants and industrial facilities we work with our two engineering partners, so one team covers the building, its structure and the equipment inside it.

Does windstorm certification apply in Texas City?

Yes. All of Galveston County is in the Texas windstorm area, so most new construction, additions and re-roofs need a WPI-8 certificate.
