Harvard Heights Construction

I had a long talk with a great COH inspector about new pending codes coming up. Not good. Need to build ASAP before they change:

>All appliances must have WiFi, including water heaters. You'll have to buy an appliance permit and have inspected. The city will inspect.
>There has to be a main switch by the main entry door to turn off EVERY light in the house. That means that if an intruder breaks in your front door and turns it off, and comes in your bedroom, you can't turn on your light to defend yourself.
>All HVAC thermostats must be WiFi. It is known that during the last freeze, that clients that had a Ring thermostat had their temperature changed by their energy provider, without approval.
>Certain receptacles/plugs must have a timer and turn off automatically.
>All fixtures must have UL listing, everything printed on fixture. So much for historic/retro/antique items.

This does not include new fire ratings, ingress, egress, load limits for structural department. These are pending, and can be amended by City Council. I will be at the meetings to voice my opinion.

I'll be having an ADU/garage apartment workshop, with Q&A at Lindale parks Club house, tomorrow the 26th at 7:00pm, 218 Joyce. I'll post on YouTube. Very en prompt tu, however join us if you can.

Lindale Park Civic Club Lindale Park is nestled among tall oaks and countless magnolias in Houston’s Near Northside. Sometimes called the “Hidden Jewel” of the inter-loop neighborhoods, Lindale Park is just east of the Houston Heights. One of the finest of Houston’s older neighborhoods, Lindale Park’s boundaries are Interstate 610 on the north, Moody Street on the south, Robertson Street on the east and Fulton Street on the west.

Awesome garage apartment we designed and built on East 26th. It has a 4' overhang over driveway to make the apartment bigger. cabinets from Durastone Corporation, windows from Grogan Building Supply doors from The Detering Company, and counter tops from Stone Future. I like the kitchen back splash tile. Har.com 402 east 26th street. Photo credits: listing agent. The driveway was problematic, but we did it to save tree.

Another historic garage apartment! We're getting closer to 30 projects on our street, Harvard!

Awesome two bedroom we finished last week. New everything. Cabinets from Durastone Corporation, counter tops at Stone Future, and frosted five panel doors at The Detering Company.

Cortlandt and something.

Our tile guys did a great job on this new bathroom. White tile with dark grout is VERY hard to look good, however they knocked it out of the park. Clients are happy! Cabinets from Durastone Corporation and tops from Stone Future
