If you need to expedite a building permit for a single-story home addition project, at any United States jurisdiction, you've come to the right site! Any single-story home addition project requires a building permit, and a building permit, is issued by your local planning/zoning and building departments; these two departments are usually branched out at your local County or City Hall departments.
In order to expedite a building permit for any single-story home addition project, you need to design approved building plans. Therefore, to design approved building plans for any single-story home addition project, you have to choose 1 out of four (4) choices (presented below). The first three choices should take you through the process with ease but are usually expensive. The last choice is very affordable but it takes time of your own and a bit of dedication:
|
- Choice # 1: To hire a Licensed Architect. Architects usually make their living working on bigger projects other than single-story home additions and frequently are a very pricey choice.
- Choice #2: To hire a Home Designer. A Home Designer is probably less expensive than a licensed Architect when it comes to generate building plans for a single-story home addition project, but, you possibly still end up being overcharged paying a few thousand dollars for the job.
- Choice #3: To hire a Licensed Contractor. A licensed contractor sometimes has a designer among his team who designs building plans and expedites building permits. If such is the case, you could end up being charged for two services, Planning and Construction without you even knowing it. On the other hand, the contractor might allocate planning fees to the construction process in order to compensate the time and effort dedicated in the generation of plans and permits, hence, triggering higher overall-project-costs. In contrast, if the licensed contractor does not have a designer among his team, the need to subcontract the job to a home designer or architect arises. Such scenario takes you back to Choice #1 and Choice #2 and may put you in the position of paying even higher fees since the contractor has to get his cut from the designer/architect.
- Choice #4: To generate your own home addition ideas such as: home addition floor plans, elevations, etc, and secure building permits yourself (whether you are a home owner or a person representing the home owner). In most United States regions, for any residential project not exceeding 4,000 square feet, any person, with a bit of help and dedication, can draw plans and expedite building permits as long as national and local building codes are applied appropriately. Logically, if you are still reading this site is because out of the 4 choices presented above, Choice #4 appeals to you. If such is the case, the intention of this website is to aim our efforts on Choice #4 only.
