What Will Your Texas Permit Be Checked Against?
Codes Are Adopted City by City
Texas has no single building code enforced statewide. Cities adopt codes by ordinance; state law sets the IRC and IBC as they existed on May 1, 2012 as the municipal baseline, and many cities adopt newer editions.
Sealed by a Texas-Licensed Engineer
Engineering is sealed by an engineer licensed by the Texas Board of Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors. Board rules allow electronic seals and signatures (22 TAC 137.33).
Coastal Windstorm Requirements
In the 14 coastal counties and parts of Harris County east of Highway 146, most properties need a Texas Department of Insurance windstorm certificate of compliance to get TWIA coverage.
Codes change and local amendments vary. We confirm the exact requirements for your address in your quote. Information checked October 2026.

Questions About Texas Permits
Does Texas have one statewide building code?
No. Each city adopts its own codes by ordinance. State law sets the IRC and IBC as they existed on May 1, 2012 as the baseline, and many cities use newer editions. We check which edition your city uses.
My project is on the Texas coast - do I need a windstorm certificate?
If the property is in the TDI designated catastrophe area (14 coastal counties and parts of Harris County east of Highway 146), most properties need a windstorm certificate of compliance for TWIA coverage. Tell us your address and we design to the wind requirements that apply.
Will a Texas-licensed engineer seal my drawings?
Yes. Where a seal is required, your drawings are sealed by an engineer licensed in Texas.
Can you deliver digitally sealed PDFs?
Yes. Texas board rules allow electronic seals and signatures. If your city still wants paper, we provide wet-stamped sets.
How much will my Texas project cost?
It depends on the project and what your city requires. Send your details for a fixed price in 5-10 minutes on average.
