Planning a project in Austin
Austin sits along the edge of the Hill Country, with terrain ranging from flatter areas to rocky slopes. Trees and changes in elevation can affect how a property is accessed and used.
Hiring in Texas: license and permit checks
Texas has no general state contractor license. Certain trades require state licenses: electrical, air conditioning and heating through TDLR, and plumbing through the state plumbing board; check the requirements for the work you need.
Ask the provider for the license or registration number if their trade requires one, and ask about insurance. Confirm city or county permits with the local building department and get a written scope of work.
