Permits and Site Planning
Cities and HOAs have rules about drainage, setbacks, easements and what needs a permit. We help you understand what applies, lay out the project on the ground and coordinate inspections so there are no surprises.

Common questions
Do I need a permit for a patio?
Often not for simple flatwork, but it varies by city and by size. We help check.
What is an easement?
It is a strip of property that others, such as utility companies, may have rights to use. We help you avoid building over one.
