Projects that might require a building permit A ll too many homeow ners have experienced the joy of completing a home improvement project only to learn upon completion that the project is not in adherence with local laws. Projects completed without a permit might hurt a home’s resale value, and such projects are not often covered by homeow ner’s insurance policies, meaning damage to areas of the home where an illegal project was conducted won’t be covered. Homeowners should always check with their local municipality before starting a project. The following are a few of the many home improvement projects that typically require a permit. • Above-ground pool • Attached storage shed • Awnings • Carports • Deck/patio/porch installation • Demolition project • Fireplace addition • Garage conversion • Handicap ramp • Inground pool • Patio enclosure • Partition wall installation • Retaining walls • Roof change • Room addition • Room remodel • Siding • Sliding glass door • Skylight • Spa or hot tub installation • Windows, new or replacement (Metro)
