Three official checks take ten minutes and catch most bad quotes: is the contractor licensed, does the job need a permit, and who actually owns the property. These are the offices for Harris County and TX:

Contractor / professional licence
Texas TDLR license search
Building permits & inspections
Houston Permitting Center
Property ownership & assessed value
Harris Central Appraisal District
Recorded deeds, liens & mortgages
Harris County Clerk Real Property Records
What HouseIQ does not do in Houston: we do not have local staff, we do not call contractors "verified", and we do not pull permits for you. We check the paperwork you have and keep the record straight.
