Permits in Briarcliff Manor: What the Village Asks For
Briarcliff Manor projects are permitted by the Village Building & Engineering Department at 1111 Pleasantville Road (914-944-2770), the same office that enforces the Village Tree Law, so tree work near an addition or new driveway is part of the conversation from the start.
Under Village Code §90-12, a building permit application carries the Tax Map number, at least three sets of construction documents, an updated survey and a plot plan where it applies. Work that starts before the permit is issued is charged an additional fee that can double the standard permit fee, so we never let a crew start early.
Once a permit is issued, the Village acts on inspection requests within 72 hours, excluding weekends and holidays, and asks for 48 hours’ notice before a final inspection. Permits lapse after 12 months if work hasn’t started and continued, and every permit expires at 18 months, which is why we schedule larger jobs to finish well inside that period.
Exterior design questions on referred projects go to the Village’s Architectural Review Advisory Committee, which generally meets by Zoom the Monday after the Planning Board submission deadline. Your Guardian project manager assembles the drawings, survey and our Westchester County Home Improvement License #WC-38383-H24 for each filing, and licensed, insured subcontractors handle electrical and plumbing under our supervision.

Briarcliff Manor Remodeling Questions
Do I need a permit for a kitchen remodel in Briarcliff Manor?
If the work touches plumbing, electrical, walls or any building system, yes. Village Code §90-12 exempts only finish work like painting, tiling and carpeting, and simple repairs that don’t alter structure, egress or building systems. We confirm the scope with the Building Department before we price the job.
How long is a Briarcliff Manor building permit good for?
A permit expires after 12 months unless work has started and continued, and all permits expire at 18 months. The Building Inspector can grant one extension of up to six months for good cause.
Who reviews the look of my addition?
When the Planning Board or Village Board refers a project, the Architectural Review Advisory Committee reviews exterior design, lighting and landscaping. We prepare the elevations and attend with you.
Can Guardian handle roofing and siding on a Briarcliff Manor house?
Yes. We replace roofs with a 10-year roof warranty and install siding, with the same project manager running permits and inspections. See our roofing and siding services.
