Build Permit Services FAQs
What types of building permits do we handle?
We specialize in permit acquisition across a range of residential and commercial projects, including:
- Home additions and remodels
- Kitchen and bathroom remodels
- Accessory dwelling units (ADUs)
- New construction
- Exterior remodels
- Garage conversion
How long does permit approval take?
The timeline for permit approval will depend on the project, with residential permits taking less time than commercial ones. Other factors that influence the timeline include submission completeness and accuracy, project complexity, and local jurisdiction.
The Bay Area is notorious for longer permit timelines than other areas around California, and delays due to mistakes or lack of information can further expand this process. Sharon Stone Design’s expedited permit application services can cut down wait times by weeks to months, avoiding delays and keeping your project moving.
What information do I need for building permit services?
The more complete your information, the better. When we do design and build projects for clients, we handle this entire side of the project as well. For clients who only want permit approval, we will need information like:
- Architectural and engineering plans
- Project specifications
- Property information
- Description of the project and its scope
- Additional documentation
We will let you know what to expect for your project based on the initial consultation.
At what stage of the process can I enlist your services?
At any stage! Sharon Stone Design provides services at whatever stage you are in. From initial drafts to final construction and everything in between, our full-service design & build firm can take the reins. Even if you have only started thinking about a project, we provide consultation services to help it take off.
