Serving Kemah

Kemah sits where Clear Lake meets Galveston Bay. Its bayfront location means many homes deal with salt air, wind and elevated construction.

Kelm Construction provides new homes and residential construction for homeowners in Kemah. We’re a local, family-run part of Kelm Home Services, based in Santa Fe, and the licenses behind the work are held by owner Clint Kelm: TECL #21849, TMEL #510665, RMPL #41051.

What to know about Kemah homes

  • Coastal building means planning for wind and salt exposure in materials and equipment.
  • Flood exposure affects foundation design, elevation and where equipment like a generator should sit. Engineering addresses it from the start.
  • Elevated construction affects layout, stairs, utilities and where mechanical equipment goes.

Permits and inspections

Depending on where your home is, permits and inspections in the Kemah area are handled by the city or by Galveston County. We’ll tell you what your project needs and take care of it.
