Questions

Permits, in plain terms

Who gets the permit?

We do. We find out what your town needs, file the applications and schedule the inspections.

Which projects need a permit?

It varies by town. New homes, additions, decks, structural changes, most plumbing and electrical work, and larger sheds usually do. Small repairs often don't.

I'm on the water. Is anything different?

Often, yes. Work within 250 feet of a lake or large pond can need a state shoreland permit as well as the town permit. We check this during the estimate.

My town isn't listed.

That doesn't mean we don't work there. Send us your project and we will let you know.
