🔍 Construction Standards & Code Knowledge

Texas does not require a statewide contractor license, which often results in inconsistent construction quality and disputes.

Eric Ramirez advocates for higher industry standards and is familiar with certification pathways such as:

  • (204) Texas General Building Contractor
  • (206) Texas Residential Building Contractor

These programs, administered through the International Code Council (ICC) and testing providers such as Pearson VUE, help establish minimum competency standards within the construction industry.
