Informative article about accessory dwelling units in Texas Monthly Magazine. We were happy to provide Laura Mallonee with details about the Houston market.
Accessory Dwelling Units Could Remake the Housing Market. Why Are They So Contentious? Advocates say that granny flats, mother-in-law suites, cat mansions, or—as one couple built—sex dungeons can add affordable housing stock without changing the streetscape.
We are SO excited for tonight's episode of Bravo's Top Chef! One of our clients, Ashley Lai, founder of Houston's Dumpling Haus, will be featured!
Have a great St. Patrick's Day!
Prepare now with help from our friends at Grogan Building Supply!
Harvard Heights Construction will be closed New Year's Eve and New Year's Day in observance of welcoming in 2022! Our office will reopen on Monday January 3. Have a great, safe time over the holiday weekend!
The city is really struggling right now. Many employees quit when they required them to physically come back from working at home, and another wave after the mayor required them to get the vaccine.
It is taking forever to get anything done.

Found some old black and white pics of a project from a long time ago on Cortlandt.
I don't understand why this isn't on the news more, and why our leaders aren't doing something about it.
Watch for tips from our buddy Duane from C&D Hardware and Gifts!
Fun morning talking to Duane at C & D hardware! I’m batting 1000 when it comes to meeting awesome local folks! (Haven’t met a Houstonian I didn’t like 😉) Today we leaned all about BUGS, BBQ, prepping your home for the spring, and the importance of home maintenance. We also looked back at the chaos surrounding the Houston winter storm and how scenarios like that can be prevented if you plan ahead! ***Hurricane season is just around the corner and will be here before you know it*** C&D Hardware and Gifts
We have been using these guys for decades. Houston Avenue. One sheet of 1/2" osb is over $30 right now. Houston Chronicle ad from 1963.
Heights neighbors, if you need water (non-drinkable) to flush toilets, head over to Grace UMC. Neighbors helping neighbors and friends helping friends, that's what it's all about.
Gonna be a lot if this going on next week. Hope you drained your pipes.
Not trying to scare anyone but.....the news of the freezing weather is triggering me about the time in the late 80's when it was 15-20 degrees for a few days and it brought our city to it's knees. At one rental building alone, we had 12 busted pipes. The electricity was off and on, so no heat. You could not drive anywhere, and Home Depot had no fittings or plumbing supplies for weeks. Forget about your plumber, you won't see him for a while. I recommended cutting your water off and getting a room at the ZaZa.
Seriously we have winterized all of our projects and will be cutting off water to all rental properties late Sunday depending on temperatures. Please stay put and be safe.
