What kinds of projects in Utah require a building permit? Permits are normally required for any type of construction work in Utah. This means building new structures as well as structurally altering or demolishing existing buildings. It also includes any changes to the intended purpose or occupancy of the building. A few examples of projects include: *Building a new house *Building an addition onto your house or office building Interior remodeling that involves changing or moving walls, windows, and door frames *Building accessory structures such as pools, decks, fences, and sheds Finishing or converting part of a house such as the basement or an attic for new living space *Repaving or building a driveway or sidewalk Re-roofing or installing siding to a building
In addition to structural changes, certain electrical, mechanical, and plumbing work also requires permits. Generally anything beyond the most basic repairs in these areas will require a permit. Examples include:
Installing a new heating or air conditioning system Installing a sprinkler or irrigation system Rewiring or replacing any part of the building’s electrical system Installing a gas stove, fireplace or water heater Replacing or adding on to any part of the plumbing system, including replacing old and broken pipes
If a permit is required, you must get it BEFORE construction begins. Working without a permit can subject you to fines and penalties and may compromise the safety and value of the structure.
