PermitMe

We love small businesses. We hate headaches. PermitMe! brings together all the permits you need to start any small business. Hit the ground running.

Some business owners want to keep tabs on the permits they already have or they permits they might need. We keep things simple, up to date, and useful. Whatever dream you want to bring to reality, we help you deal with the not-so-sexy-but-still-important stuff. We've got your back.

The neighborhood remains the same old destination for boutique shopping and great bars that Houston has enjoyed since the 1930s. But remaining the same isn’t one of Houston’s strengths. Up...
