FAQ
When do I apply for a Building and Safety Permit? PERMITS AND INSPECTIONS ARE REQUIRED FOR THE FOLLOWING: New Attached or Detached Buildings and Structures (Residential and Non-Residential) with a floor area greater than 120 square feet
Per the California Residential Code detached accessory structure not exceeding 120 square feet does not require a building permit if there is no plumbing, electrical, and or mechanical equipment. Please note, Sheds and/or Structures under 120 square feet do require a Planning Permit.
Types of Projects That May Be Exempt From a Building Permit in California Painting. Floor upgrades. Kitchen remodels. Small drywall projects. Common electrical work. Small outbuildings. Bathroom fixes. Fences.
Building a house in California without a permit goes against the California Building Standards Code and can result in penalties, including fines. Permits ensure your renovation is in line with safety regulations and offer you protection throughout the project.
The quick and simple answer is: you usually don't need a permit if the shed is 120 square feet or less. In California, most jurisdictions have adopted the 120 square foot rule. If your shed area is larger than 120 square feet, it needs a building permit.
Can I pull my permit myself as an owner/builder or do I need a contractor? In California, most construction work is required to be performed by a licensed contractor. In certain instances, the owner of the property may secure a permit as an owner-builder, but there are strict limitations on when this may occur.
In the City of Los Angeles, if the size of floor space exceeds 120 sq. ft. or the structure is over 12 feet in height, you need a permit. Any electrical work will require an electrical permit.
No, as long as everything you have done is up to code then you'll be ok getting your permit. Don't walk in the permit office and blab your mouth off telling them you've already begun. I have done a few basements myself where no permit was pulled until we were ready for rough in inspections.
