or call (832) 803-0984
Kingwood's flooding is fundamentally different from Meyerland's. The San Jacinto River and Lake Houston control the water, and the Lake Houston Dam release decisions during Harvey changed flood patterns across the community. Forest Cove and parts of Bear Branch were declared total losses for many homeowners.
Lifting a Kingwood home presents two unique challenges. First, the tree canopy: the Livable Forest is exactly that. We coordinate with arborists to selectively prune for crane access without compromising tree health. Second, the village architectural standards: each Kingwood village has its own Architectural Review Committee. We submit packets before quoting.
The good news: FEMA Hazard Mitigation Assistance grants have funded substantial elevation work in Forest Cove and Bear Branch already. The infrastructure is in place. Approval timelines are predictable.
We don't cut down healthy trees to lift a house. Selective pruning, certified arborist input, surgical crane positioning.
Each Kingwood village has its own architectural review committee. We submit packets to the right one before quoting.
Forest Cove was devastated. We've worked the recovery from start. We know which lots are eligible for what grants.
Most Kingwood lifts also need new roofs (tree damage is constant). Same crew. Insurance claim work included.
San Jacinto River + Lake Houston. Kingwood's flood risk is from the river and dam release decisions. After Harvey, downstream Kingwood absorbed water released to protect upstream reservoirs. Lift heights should account for both.
Heavy tree canopy. Crane access for the lift requires selective pruning. We coordinate with certified arborists. Healthy lifts done right cause minimal canopy loss.
Village Architectural Review Committee. Each of the 9 Kingwood villages has its own ARC reviewing exterior modifications. We submit before quoting.
Forest Cove and Bear Branch priority. These areas have FEMA HMA grant infrastructure already in place. Application timelines are predictable.
