What we find behind the walls in Bellaire
Bellaire holds a mix of 1940s–1960s bungalows and ranches on generous lots and newer custom homes built after teardowns. The original homes often have cast iron drains, aluminum or cloth-wrapped wiring, plaster over wood lath, and no attic insulation to speak of.
The most valuable Bellaire remodel is usually opening the tight original kitchen to the dining and living rooms with an engineered beam, then replacing the electrical service and drains while walls are open. We also do a great deal of custom millwork here.
Permitting in Bellaire
The City of Bellaire has its own building department with a rigorous plan review and its own flood elevation rules. Structural changes require sealed engineering. We handle the entire submittal.

Reviews
What Houston homeowners say
"I am in the process of building a custom home. Al Heathcock helped me design the home and drew up the floor plans which are now in effect. Al was very responsive to my desires for the home and very creative in the design of rooms, closets, and bathrooms. I had never built a custom home and was unfamiliar with the many choices available in the building of a home. Al worked closely with my contractor to present choices in the foundation, structure, and finishing of the home. I would say that Al is very competent in any design project presented to him. I also want to say that in addition to his competence in his field, his character is of most importance. He is a very kind, gentle person, completely honest and trustworthy. I learned very early that if Al said he would do something, he would do it exactly when he said. He never failed in keeping his word and was never late to an appointment. I do not hesitate to recommend him for any home design project."
"We interviewed four contractors. Century Builders was the only one who showed up with a tape measure, asked how we cook, and then told us honestly that our original plan would waste money. The kitchen is stunning and they finished two days early."
"The Schluter waterproofing detail they photographed and emailed to me before the tile went up told me everything about how this company works. Two years later, not one crack in the grout."
