The Building Division would like to remind you that home improvement projects require one or more building applications, planning reviews and permits. Some of the more common projects requiring permits include:

PaperworkAdditions or Alterations
Basement Finishing

New or Re-roofing
Fences (check your subdivision regulations)
Window Replacement
Decks or Gazebos
Concrete Patios
Installation of Landscape Sprinklers

Pools

You must apply for your building permit from the Building Division. This will take 10 to 15 business days if no corrections are required. If you must make corrections, approval will require an additional 3 to 5 days.

Many of these permit applications can be downloaded from our Form, Permits and Publications page if you click here. If you have any questions whether your improvements need a permit or not, call the Building Division at (248) 348-5830. If you have questions about a potential contractor call the Better Business Bureau and the Michigan Department of Consumer & Industry Services (517) 241-9363.
