What Is Permit Expediting?

Permit expediting is the process of professionally managing your building permit application through the City of Houston's approval process. Instead of waiting in line at 1002 Washington, dealing with confusing requirements, and playing phone tag with plan reviewers, you hand it off to experts who know the system inside out.

A permit expediter serves as your representative with the City of Houston Permitting Center. We submit applications, respond to plan review comments, schedule inspections, and push your permit through the system faster than you could on your own.

Houston's permitting process is notoriously complex. The City of Houston processes over 100,000 permits annually, and the backlog can stretch for weeks or months. Here's why smart contractors, property owners, and businesses use permit expediters:
