Frequently asked questions

What works are considered 'minor'?
This varies by municipality, but typically include interior renovations without affecting the structure, window and door changes, facade painting, and minor repairs. Works that affect the structure, facade, or increase the area require a major permit.
Can I start work before obtaining the permit?
No. Starting without a permit can result in fines and an order to stop work. For prior communication, you may begin on the day of submission in many cases.
