Code

As of March 1, 2026, Friendswood enforces the 2024 International Residential Code with local amendments, and permits are handled online. That is newer than the statewide baseline, so new work here follows the city's adopted code.

Code in practice

Galveston County is in Climate Zone 2A (OpenEI). Friendswood's adoption of the 2024 IRC with local amendments means new construction and major remodels follow the city's adopted code; ask the city what applies to your project.

Older and newer neighborhoods

Friendswood has neighborhoods from several decades. Older homes tend to have thin attic insulation and leaky ceilings; newer two-stories have ducts in hot attics and bonus rooms over garages. We look at the whole house and recommend the steps that give the most comfort for the money.

Garage ceilings and bonus rooms

Closed-cell foam in the garage ceiling under a bedroom, and sealing along kneewalls next to attic space, are common targeted jobs here.

Typical work

Roof deck foam or ceiling sealing and deeper attic insulation for hot upstairs rooms, bonus room sealing, and foam in walls during remodels. Get a free estimate

Friendswood Questions

Do I need a permit for insulation in Friendswood?
