General Contractor in Cinco Ranch
One accountable team for commercial buildouts, tenant improvements, ground-up, and residential remodels in Cinco Ranch
Why hire a general contractor in Cinco Ranch?
Cinco Ranch is unincorporated — there is no Cinco Ranch building department — so permits route through Fort Bend County, with the northern edge falling into Harris County. On residential work there is a second approval running in parallel: the community's architectural review, which has its own calendar and its own standards. A contractor who plans for both keeps a remodel from stalling before demo starts.
A large master-planned community in west Katy known for established family homes, top-rated schools, and active retail centers.
Strong demand for residential remodels, primary-suite expansions, and room additions, plus retail and professional tenant improvements in the community's commercial centers.
Who issues building permits in Cinco Ranch?
Fort Bend County for most of Cinco Ranch, Harris County along the northern edge, plus HOA architectural review on residential exterior work.
Because Cinco Ranch is unincorporated, county plan review replaces a city building department. Separately, the architectural control committees review exterior changes, additions, and anything that alters elevation, roofline, or setback — an approval the county permit does not cover. We prepare and submit the county package and the architectural package in parallel so neither one quietly becomes the critical path.

Cinco Ranch general contractor FAQs
Do I need HOA approval for a remodel in Cinco Ranch?
For anything visible from the street, almost certainly yes. The architectural control committees review exterior changes, additions, and elevation or setback alterations separately from the county building permit, and their approval is not implied by the permit. We prepare both submittals up front rather than discovering the requirement after demolition has started.
Which county issues permits in Cinco Ranch?
Fort Bend County covers most of Cinco Ranch, with the northern edge in Harris County. There is no Cinco Ranch city building department, so county plan review and county inspections apply. We confirm the correct county from the parcel before filing.
What drives the cost of a Cinco Ranch kitchen remodel?
Scope drives it far more than square footage. A finish-level refresh that keeps the existing layout is a different project from one that relocates plumbing, adds electrical capacity, or removes structure to open a wall — those changes pull in permits and sub-trades a cosmetic remodel never touches. Our cost guide breaks the ranges down, and every project gets a free itemized estimate before work begins.
Can we stay in the house during a room addition?
Usually yes. An addition that attaches to the existing envelope can be sequenced so the house stays livable through most of the build, with a defined window when we tie into the existing structure, roof, and MEP. We set that window with you before the schedule is locked, not while the roof is open.
