QD Design is a HUB-certified architecture and MEP engineering firm based in Cypress, Texas that produces complete commercial permit sets for Tomball: architectural drawings plus sealed mechanical, electrical, and plumbing engineering under one contract, led by a Texas-licensed Professional Engineer. Tomball sits just up SH-249 from our Cypress office, and our completed work here went through one of the tougher plan reviews in our portfolio — and passed.
Tomball Project Experience
- La Reserva meat market, 6,000 SF — a 25-comment deficiency notice answered to approval, including Type I hood suppression and walk-in cooler envelope compliance.
Permitting in Tomball
The City of Tomball reviews commercial work through its own building department, and it reads drawings closely: our La Reserva meat market received a 25-comment deficiency notice, and we answered every comment to approval — including Type I hood suppression and walk-in cooler envelope compliance. That comment-response work is standard scope for us, not an extra. Statewide, any Texas commercial project valued over the $50,000 statutory threshold also requires TDLR registration and Texas Accessibility Standards (TAS) review — we file the registration and coordinate the accessibility review as part of the package.
