Jersey Village started in 1953 as Clark W. Henry’s homesites around Jersey Lake, named for his Jersey dairy herd, and incorporated as its own city in 1956. Today it’s a 3.4-square-mile city of about 7,900 people where US-290 meets Beltway 8 and Senate Ave, with White Oak Bayou running right through the middle and the municipal Jersey Meadow Golf Course on Rio Grande St.
Much of the housing went up in the 1950s, 60s and 70s, and many older homes near the bayou predate the area’s first flood insurance rate maps. After Allison and the 2016 Tax Day flood, Jersey Village homes have been elevated, rebuilt or replaced, and the city’s 2025 comprehensive plan points to new investment along US-290 and Senate Ave. That keeps demolition contractors in Jersey Village busy with older homes coming down, pools coming out, garages and sheds being removed and lots being cleared for what comes next. Even the City approved demolishing its own 1975 Clark Henry Pool in 2025.
Right On Time Demolition Team has served Houston and the US-290 corridor since 2017. We handle residential and commercial demolition, pool removal, junk removal and clean-outs, and lot clearing throughout Jersey Village — and we work inside the City’s own permitting and floodplain rules.
Every service we offer is available throughout Jersey Village, from the homes off Lakeview Dr to the streets around Jersey Village High School. We also serve the nearby Houston neighborhoods with Jersey Village mailing addresses.
When a flood-damaged or outdated Jersey Village home is being replaced, we take down the house, garage and outbuildings, break out the slab and driveway, and haul it all away. Jersey Village requires permits for all residential and commercial construction through its online portal, and permits lapse if work doesn’t start within 60 days — so we schedule to keep your permit active. On lots in the floodplain, your new home will need to sit 24 inches above base flood elevation; we leave a clean pad ready for that build.
Services include:
Clean-outs before a sale, a renovation or an elevation project are common here. We clear houses, garages and attics, remove furniture, appliances, hot tubs and sheds, and haul construction debris. Because Jersey Village requires a permit for a dumpster, having our crew load and haul directly can be simpler than renting one.
Services include:
Mature live oaks shade much of Jersey Village, like those in Clark Henry Park, and many older lots carry overgrown fence lines, volunteer trees and storm debris. We clear brush, stumps, old fences and sheds while protecting the trees you’re keeping. If your property is in the floodplain, any grading or fill needs a City floodplain permit; we’ll flag that at the estimate so your project stays compliant.
Services include:
For larger overgrown tracts in and around Jersey Village and out toward Cypress, forestry mulching grinds brush and saplings in place with no hauling and no burn pile. Leaving mulch instead of bare dirt matters near White Oak Bayou, where loose soil washes toward the channel in heavy rain. Mulching doesn’t grade or pull root balls; we’ll recommend the right approach at the estimate.
Services include:
Old in-ground pools leak, crack and take up yard space — in 2025 the City approved removing its own 1975 pool at Clark Henry Park, shell, deck and pump house included. We drain to the sanitary sewer, break out the shell and deck, haul the debris and backfill in compacted layers so the ground stays stable. If your home is in the floodplain, we’ll confirm the City’s permit requirements for the work before we start.
Services include:
Built around White Oak Bayou. White Oak Bayou runs straight through the center of Jersey Village. Allison flooded about a third of the city in 2001, and the Tax Day storm flooded more than 230 homes in 2016. Since then, the 2-mile bypass channel, detention basins along Jones Rd, the Jersey Meadow Golf Course berm and the federal White Oak Bayou project completed in April 2026 have changed the picture. We keep demolition debris and loose soil out of streets, inlets and the bayou.
The roads we run. Our crews reach Jersey Village from US-290, Beltway 8 and FM 529 / Senate Ave, and work along Jersey Dr, Lakeview Dr, Philippine St, Rio Grande St and Jones Rd. Inside the neighborhoods we work streets like Equador, Acapulco, Wall, Carlsbad, Crawford, Capri and Tahoe, scheduling hauls around Jersey Village High School on Solomon St.
The projects this area produces. Jersey Village’s 1950s–70s housing stock and its flood history drive teardowns, rebuilds and elevation projects, especially on older streets near the bayou and the golf course. Pools are coming out — the City approved removing its own Clark Henry Pool — and older garages, sheds and outbuildings are being cleared for new construction.
City rules we plan around. Jersey Village issues its own permits — every residential and commercial project goes through the City’s online portal, and a permit lapses if work doesn’t start within 60 days. Dumpsters need a permit. In the floodplain, grading and fill need a floodplain permit, new homes must sit 24 inches above base flood elevation, and a home damaged or improved beyond 50% of its market value must be rebuilt to current standards. We build these steps into every Jersey Village quote.
Jersey Village runs its own permit office and floodplain program. We plan around its portal, its 60-day permit window and its floodplain rules instead of treating it like the rest of Houston.
We work across northwest Houston daily, and Jersey Village sits right where US-290 meets Beltway 8 — so same-day or next-day service is often possible.
Junk removal, demolition, pool removal and lot clearing — we handle the whole job with one estimate, so there's no juggling of contractors.
Gary served 9.5 years in the U.S. Army and started Right On Time right after Hurricane Harvey. You deal directly with the owner.
Every estimate is free, pricing is fair and honest, and financing up to $200,000 with 0% APR options is available for qualified projects.
As demolition contractors in Jersey Village, we cover the entire city and the surrounding northwest Harris County communities along US-290 and Beltway 8, including:
It depends on the home’s size and construction, plus anything else coming out — a garage, a pool, the driveway, trees. Lots in the floodplain may also need specific site preparation for the new build. Gary will walk the property and give you a free, itemized estimate.
Almost certainly. Jersey Village requires permits for all residential and commercial construction, submitted through the City’s online permit portal, and a permit lapses if work doesn’t start within 60 days or stops for 60 days. Dumpsters need their own permit. We’ll confirm current requirements with the City’s permit office before starting your job.
Cost depends on the pool’s size and depth, the deck and equipment, and backyard access. We drain to the sanitary sewer, break out the shell and deck, haul the debris and backfill in compacted layers so the ground stays stable. The estimate is free.
It depends on the damage and your plans. Jersey Village requires a home that’s damaged or improved beyond 50% of its market value to be rebuilt to current standards, including new construction 24 inches above base flood elevation, and grading or fill in the floodplain needs a City permit. Many owners near White Oak Bayou choose to demolish and rebuild. Talk to the City’s floodplain staff and your builder — we’ll handle the demolition and leave a clean pad.
Getting the City permit usually takes the most time, and commercial or multi-unit demolitions need a Texas DSHS notice 10 working days ahead. Once those are in place, the on-site work for a typical single-family home moves quickly; pools, garages and trees add time. Gary will give you a schedule at the estimate.
Yes. We clear out houses, garages and attics, remove furniture, appliances, hot tubs and sheds, and haul renovation and construction debris anywhere in Jersey Village. Because the City requires a permit for a dumpster, having our crew load and haul directly is often the simpler option.
Whether you’re tearing down an older home near White Oak Bayou, removing a pool off Jersey Dr or clearing out a garage near Lakeview Dr, Right On Time Demolition Team is ready to clear the way. Estimates are always free, and we serve all of Jersey Village and the surrounding US-290 corridor.
