THRW AHU & Roof Replacement and Renovation

Texas Health Hospital Rockwall is undergoing a major $9,000,000 renovation at 3150 Horizon Road in Rockwall, Texas. The project, filed under the name THRW AHU & Roof Replacement and Renovation, involves significant structural and system upgrades across 50,000 square feet of facility space. This work is registered with TDLR and is targeted for July 2027, following a start date of November 2026.

Scope of Renovation

The renovation focuses on critical infrastructure and patient safety improvements. The scope includes the replacement of the existing roofing and all rooftop air handling units. Additionally, the project adds roof catwalks for maintenance access and replaces sidewalks around the property. A permanent canopy will be installed at the patient tower to improve access. Interior work includes new ceiling and finish work associated with the replacement of fire sprinkler systems. These updates are designed to modernize the facility’s mechanical and safety systems.

The owner of record for this project is Rockwall Regional Hospital LLC. The work is classified as a Renovation/Alteration and is privately funded on private land for private use. Glenn Thomas Comtois is the registered accessibility specialist associated with the filing. The project was registered with TDLR in October 2026, and plan review is pending.

Project Context

This renovation is significantly larger in scale and cost compared to typical projects in the area. The estimated cost of $9,000,000 places this project in the top quarter of registered renovation filings in Rockwall County, where the median cost is $230,000. The scheduled build window of 272 days is longer than the county median of 90 days for similar work. The cost per square foot is $180, which is above the county median of $90 per square foot. This reflects the complexity of upgrading a large healthcare facility rather than a standard commercial renovation.

The facility is located in ZIP code 75032, an area with a population of about 37,895 and a median household income of $128,465 according to U.S. Census estimates. The housing stock is predominantly owner-occupied, with a median home value of $462,000. The Rockwall County unemployment rate was 4.2 percent in July 2026, providing a stable labor market for construction activities. This project represents a substantial investment in the local healthcare infrastructure, aiming to enhance the operational capacity and safety of the hospital facility.
