You don’t need permits to start the conversation.
A licensed remodeling contractor can help identify which permits your project requires and may handle applications and inspection coordination as part of your agreement. Before hiring, confirm who will manage permits and whether the related fees are included. Required permits must be in place before the work they cover begins.
