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.
How do I obtain a Certificate of Occupancy? A completed permit application. Complete construction documents, if applicable. The services of a professional designer may be required to prepare plans for the space. Payment of plan review and permit fees.
Owner-as-Contractor is a type of Owner-Builder where you personally act as your own General Contractor, the permit is taken out in your name and you hire California licensed sub-contractors to perform portions of the construction work.
