there is no definitive answer to an open ended question. what sort of house music? house styles are about what sounds you use, and their context.
listen to tunes you like, and compare to what you conjure up. just post a few names of ppl you like and start again.

Which compression would you use for the kicks and Hihats (with focus on Attack, Release, Ratio...) ?

It IS hard, cos people will tend to think there is some magic formulae or answer, but there simply is not... just time & experience...
perhaps the best tip I can give is to experiment with making tracks with ONLY the drums & bassline... if they sound good like that then that's half the battle.. and they SHOULD sound good like that... Everything else is Ear-Candy or Motif's in house..
OH IMPORTANTE!!!! - the closed & open hat DECAY is critical to the groove.

open too long? - the hat closes too late causing the groove to fall forwards...
open for not long enuff? - the hat closes too early & the groove fall backwards..
it's subtle but makes all the difference.
