Alteration, Repair, and Structural Permits
Often required for building alterations, major repairs, or structural additions to maintain compliance with local building codes.

New Construction Permits
Essential for ground-up construction projects. These building permits authorize the construction of new commercial structures in accordance with zoning and safety regulations.

Land Disturbance and Excavation Permits
Needed for any site work that disturbs soil or alters the landscape, including grading, trenching, or digging. These permits help prevent erosion and protect infrastructure.

Raze and Demo Permits
When looking to safely and legally tear down a building or structure, proper raze and demo permits are essential. This permit ensures the work conducted meets safety, environmental, and waste-handling regulations.

Tenant Fit-Out Permits
Used for interior customization of commercial spaces, such as offices, retail stores, or restaurants, these permits ensure a new layout meets code requirements.

Use, Occupancy, and Zoning Permits
These permits verify that a building’s intended use complies with local zoning laws and that it’s safe for occupancy. Often required before a space can be legally used or opened to the public.
