When planning a construction or renovation project in Broward County, obtaining the necessary building permits is a critical first step. Whether you’re a homeowner, contractor, or business owner, navigating the permit process can seem overwhelming. At A to Z Permits, we simplify the process, ensuring your project complies with county regulations while saving you time and stress.


What Are Building Permits and Why Are They Required?


Building permits are official documents issued by Broward County to authorize specific construction, remodeling, or repair work. They ensure that your project meets local building codes and zoning laws, protecting both your investment and public safety.


Common projects requiring permits include:

  • New construction (residential or commercial)

  • Additions or major renovations

  • Electrical, plumbing, or mechanical work

  • Roofing or structural repairs

  • Fence installations

  • Demolition work


The Permit Process in Broward County

Here’s a step-by-step overview of how building permits are typically handled in Broward County:


1. Determine the Permits You Need

The first step is identifying the specific permits your project requires. Broward County has a variety of permits depending on the scope of work, such as:

  • Building permits

  • Electrical permits

  • Plumbing permits

  • Mechanical permits

  • Zoning approvals


2. Prepare and Submit Your Application

You'll need to submit detailed plans, project specifications, and any additional documentation to the Broward County Building Department. Submissions are usually made through their ePermits system, which allows for online applications and tracking.


3. Plan Review

Once submitted, your plans will be reviewed by county officials to ensure compliance with building codes and zoning ordinances. This step may involve revisions based on feedback.


4. Inspections

After your permit is issued, inspections will be required at various stages of your project to confirm that the work meets approved plans and codes.
