Update: 2025-05-20
Description
Home renovations can be an exciting time and can transform your home into the dream space you’ve always wanted. Yet, behind every successful renovation project lies the complex, and sometimes daunting, process of getting building permits. These permits not only ensure that your project adheres to local codes and regulations, but they also protect both the homeowner and contractor from potential legal and safety issues. Luckily for you, here at Big Fish, we know the ins and outs of building permits and we have our permit expert, Kelsey Kasten, to talk all about what goes on with them.
Together, we chat through the basics of permits, including what kinds of projects typically require a permit, how skipping this step of getting a permit can get you into trouble, and how permit requirements can vary depending on where you live. We also discuss when and how to know when you should pull a permit, and what the inspection process looks like, so you never get caught off guard mid-project.
If dealing with permits leaves you overwhelmed, don’t worry because that’s where we come in. At Big Fish we take care of all the behind-the-scenes logistics so you get to focus on the exciting parts of your reno! Tune in for helpful tips, real talk about common pitfalls, and why working with a contractor who knows the ropes can make all the difference.
