Why is Restoration East so Good at Getting Permits?:

  • Restoration East (RE) self performs all permit acquisitions, such as Building Permits, Right of Way Permits, Dumpster Permits, After Hours Permits and Discharge Permits.
  • The type of permits for structural garage repairs & similar projects are very unique, and while a permit “expediting” service may have experience across a broad range of permits. RE is an expert in structural repair permitting and has particular experience with parent/child permits (for multiple addresses) & special inspection programs, saving you headache.
  • RE does not require a permitting middle man whom is frequently the cause for permitting delays. RE proactively mitigate potential review rejections based on hundreds of past experiences with these unique permits.
  • RE is able to provide immediate progress updates on demand, and provide accurate timelines for permit processing.
  • RE regularly obtains permits in Washington DC, Baltimore City, Howard County, Montgomery County, Fairfax County, Fairfax City, Alexandria, Arlington, and so much more.

When Are Building Permits Required?:

  • Permits are required for ANY structural repairs. repairing a structure correctly is just as important as building it correctly in the first place.
    • If shoring is required, a permit is required.
  • Permits are also often (but not always) required for interior & exterior slab-on-grade replacement (we have learned this the hard way) even though not technically considered structural.
  • Permits are not required for pressure washing, sandblasting, sealant replacement, expansion joint replacement, painting, traffic bearing membrane, and waterproofing.
