Plan checkPlan check typically takes approximately 3 weeks for first review, and 2 weeks for subsequent reviews. Permits can usually be issued over the counter for re-roofs, heating and air conditioning replacements, replacement of water lines, gas lines, water heaters, addition to existing electrical system and electrical service upgrades.

Although a contractor will often secure permits, it is the responsibility of the homeowner to make sure all necessary permits are obtained. Building permits are also required for mechanical, electrical and plumbing projects or replacements.
