Permits and inspections
We handle permit applications and coordinate inspections with the local building department whenever your project needs them.
North Salem Permits: What the Building Department Checks
North Salem homes are permitted by the Town Building Department, where the Building Inspector also serves as the Town Fire Inspector. The office also oversees the Town’s Wetlands, Tree Cutting, Fill, Blasting and Stormwater laws, which matter on the large, wooded and wet lots common here.
The Town’s permit list includes structural alterations inside and outside, additions and new roofs. Painting, finish work and ordinary repairs are generally exempt under Chapter 92 of the Town Code. Before issuing a permit, the Town checks that the contractor holds a current Westchester license.
Starting work without a needed permit is expensive here: the penalty is triple the permit fee, up to $1,500, and legalizing finished work costs a $1,500 penalty plus the permit and certificate fees. Filing first is always cheaper.
Your Guardian project manager files our Westchester County Home Improvement License #WC-38383-H24 with the application, checks wetland and tree rules early, and supervises the licensed, insured subcontractors who do the electrical and plumbing.
