Section 8 / Housing Choice Voucher inspection repair contractor Houston. Fix deficiencies, pass HQS inspections, maintain compliance.
Housing Quality Standards (HQS) inspections are the gatekeepers of Section 8 revenue — fail an inspection and the Housing Authority withholds rent payments until deficiencies are corrected and the unit passes re-inspection. In Houston, where the Harris County Housing Authority and Houston Housing Authority collectively administer over 20,000 vouchers, HQS compliance is a significant operational concern for landlords and property managers with Section 8 units. Tell Projects provides rapid-response HQS repair services that get your units back into compliance fast.
The most common HQS failures we see in Houston are peeling paint, inoperable smoke detectors, plumbing leaks, missing handrails, HVAC issues, and electrical hazards — all items our crews can address in a single visit for most units. We also handle more complex deficiencies including window replacement, water heater installation, roof repairs, and mold remediation. Our goal is to get your unit re-inspected and rent payments resumed within 7-10 business days of the initial failure notice, not the 30-60 days that most landlords endure while searching for reliable contractors.
Real projects. Real results. Watch how Tell Projects transforms multifamily properties across Houston.
