Owning a home in Houston: what to know
Houston's hot, humid climate keeps AC systems running most of the year, and AC failure in July is close to an emergency. Water heaters, slab leaks and humidity-related drywall and mold problems are also common.
Hurricane season and heavy rain bring roof leaks and flooding, so drainage, gutters and roof repairs spike after big storms.
Common home jobs in Houston
- AC repair, recharge, and tune-ups — typically $150–$600
- Storm, wind, and leak repair — typically $350–$1,500
- Water heater and leak repair — typically $150–$450
- Moisture, mold-prone drywall, and water damage fixes — typically $90–$300
- Year-round lawn care and storm debris cleanup — typically $100–$400
- Exterior painting that stands up to sun and humidity — typically $300–$1,500
Heat and humidity keep AC systems running hard. Schedule an AC tune-up before summer, and check the roof and gutters ahead of storm season.
