We will insure your project meets provisions of the Code of Ordinances, state and federal regulations relating to new street pavement, street cuts, left turn lanes, underground utilities (i.e. sanitary, water sewer and storm), storm water pollution prevention plan, and storm water quality.

We work with regulatory agencies for timely plan approvals to final project acceptance.

Subdivision Platting

We prepare “turn-key” platting services for city and county entities in the Houston Metropolitan Area. This includes preparation of the plats, submittal to the appropriate entity, and meetings/follow-ups throughout the platting process until the plat is recorded.

If you have recently purchased or acquired a tract of land and plan on dividing it, adding to it, or otherwise developing it, you will come across the phrase “property plat.” Plats are important because they give an accurate description of the land as well as the owner's easement restrictions, things, and access ways on to the property. Lots comply with restrictions and the city ordinances and ensure all property owners have access to utilities.

Property plats are necessary during the land development process – particularly when properties are being subdivided.

In Texas, the platting process and the regulations that govern it are generally overseen at the local level by the city or jurisdiction that pertains to the property. Owners of property in unincorporated areas must report to the pertinent county, and landowners in incorporated cities and towns must file plats with the appropriate municipality's planning department. Virtually every jurisdiction requires plats for any property that stands to be improved with the utility company.
