FAQ
What work requires a permit? Replacing and repairing damaged siding, sheetrock or windows typically does not require a permit. Minor repairs to roofing or roof vents does not require a permit.
Report violations to the City of Dallas by dialing 3-1-1 (24 hours - 7 days a week). Construction is limited to 7 AM until 7 PM Monday through Friday and 8 AM until 7 PM on Saturdays and legal holidays, when work is on or adjacent to a residential use as defined in the Dallas Development Code.
Sheds and accessory buildings with a permanent foundation (i.e. concrete pad) require a permit. Sheds must be a minimum of five feet (5') from the common property line when located on the side of the home or in the side yard.
Most buildings in Texas need a permit; exceptions include sheds <200 sqft, decks <30 inches, and fences <7 feet. Permit is required for plumbing, electrical work, residential additions, pools, and concrete pouring.
However, in general, most sheds that are less than 120 square feet (around 11 square meters) and less than 12 feet (3.65m) in height do not require a permit.
How long will it take to receive my permit? For simple residential remodels this can usually be obtained the same day if all necessary plans and documents are submitted. For more complex plans the review may take up to 3 days.
Very generally speaking, the biggest you can build in Texas without a permit is 200 square feet. Whether you're in Dallas or Harris County or beyond, the majority of the state doesn't require a permit for structures under 200 square feet.
Every city in Texas is different — but for the most part, loud noises aren't allowed between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m. Still, your neighbors may not be happy if you start yard work when they're sleeping. There's no set law in Texas when it comes to landscaping work or lawn care.
Prima facie evidence of unreasonable noise: In residential areas between the hours of 10 p.m. and 7 a.m., the generation of sound from any identifiable source that exceeds 50 dB(A) at the property line of an offended person shall constitute prima facie evidence of a violation of this chapter.
What are the permitted hours for construction activity? Construction operations, including the delivery of materials and equipment, which produce noise disturbances, are only permitted between the hours of a.m. to p.m. on weekdays and a.m. to p.m. on weekends.
